Wow. I find Robbie to be criminally overrated and overhyped, but I LOOOVE his new song! :o

Alexandra sold 187k while Robbie ended with 89k. He would have been #1 in ANY other week, LOL.

The album is really nice, despite not featuring many standout tracks. It sounds like a summary of his career, with the electro songs, the throwback ones, the pop-rock, etc. Not bad at all.

It's better on a second listen. It's a good album. The overall production on the album is really good.

^^ Thanks! Haven't listened to the album yet, but did see the video for You Know Me. Very cute concept and execution, but I was underwhelmed by the song itself. THIS is the 2nd single?  I really liked Bodies, but meh, not feeling this one. I do hope his album does very well, he was my favorite artist for most of my teens, so... |

Sodding X-Factor. I know he probably benefited himself, but these dead-cert chart-toppers are starting to annoy me. It's like you can pretty much book in a No.1 for a certain week. Only now listening to the album... sounds pretty good, if a bit of a step sideways.

The album debuts at #2 behind JLS. It's all good though, as it sold 238k copies, about 1k less that the band. Oh, and he's collaborating with Take That on new material.
The album keeps growing on me with every listen. I can do without "You Know Me", "Do You Mind" and "Won't Do That". The rest is good, "Morning Sun", "Blasphemy" and "Deceptacon" in particular.

How would you guys rank this album compared to, say, his first two..? I used to be a huge fan, now not so much. Is it worth buying..??

Debuts at #160 on the Billboard 200. I suppose it was released digitally last week?

This man's ability to move units in such huge numbers, so consistently, is pretty impressive.

I really love this album... most I've loved an album of his since Escapology. It's actually even got me listening to Rudebox more now.
