Could be the nail in the coffin of Robbie Williams' career... at least, let's hope so.

I think you could be right there, although, he may surprise us all in future - but i personally doubt it.

the UK radio stations are crap.
I don't understand why we have to keep measuring success by the UK charts.

I was in Austria/Germany last week and within a day I heard the song 3 times on the radio. It's all about worldwide popularity and not just what is going on in the UK.
I went fishing with Salvador Dali; he used a dotted line.

No way. Robbie is far too famous and generally well-liked by the mainstream to go down the dumper for real. Like Madonna, he can afford a flop or two.

Kylie is an icon though. And she looks much better in gold hotpants than Robbie.

Kylie looks better in anything than Robbie.

I hear "She's Madonna" quite regularly on Oz radio as well.

I'm very happy with Robbie. Thanks to him, PSB currently enjoy their biggest in the Netherlands in almost 20 years! She's Madonna is at #2 in the charts over here!

yes, at least psb are beyond charts in the meantime.

rationally spoken charts only give you a guess, how much money is earned with that record by label and artist. but why do we all - me included - wish them all that money??? i dont understand that! do we hope they will have enough to eat to give us more songs? fans are strage!
