According to most of the papers today, Robbie Williams' song-writing partner Guy has been comissioned to write for Will and Robbie is in the huff about it. Robbie is taking time out, so Guy has time on his hands, but is supposedly unhappy he is helping a rival.
I don't believe Robbie is in the huff at all, and if he is, then he shouldn't be. The worst that will happen is that he writes some great tunes, and people will assume he is the talented one in the writing relationship with Robbie being something of a silent partner. Even if they do, it is unfair to expect all his entourage to sit on their respective arses while he does whatever it is he's doing in LA.
More songwriters mean a much better chance of getting a really good album together in time for the June release.
