It's been over three years since Robbie's last live show in the UK... and finally he's back for one night only as part of the BBC Electric Proms 2009, which takes place at Camden's Roundhouse in London from 20th – 24th October 2009.

Robbie will open Electric Proms on Tuesday 20th October, when he will be performing a very special set at the Camden Roundhouse featuring new material from his forthcoming album Reality Killed The Video Star, along with some classic tracks. The performance will be accompanied by a string section, horn section and full band in a show, all overseen by Musical Director Trevor Horn.

“I’m looking forward to playing my new songs, working with Trevor Horn again and seeing how people react to what I’ve been doing" said Robbie.


You could be there for his electrifying return!

Tickets go on sale at 08:00 BST tomorrow morning, so set every alarm clock you've got and don't miss that wake up call. There are a limited number of tickets available for the show Camden's intimate Roundhouse, so early birds will still have to be very quick!

Head over to the BBC's dedicated Robbie Williams Electric Proms page now to find out more about tickets... good luck!

"Bodies" today reached #1 in on the German airplay chart after only one week on the chart!

That must be some kind of world record!I never knew how big he was there!

[Scarlett.]

He is very big in Germany

GARY BARLOW rates it. JAMES CORDEN loved it. Even PHIL "The Power" TAYLOR said it was a cracker.

And I reckon ROBBIE WILLIAMS's eighth album, Reality Killed The Video Star, is his best since 2002's Escapology.

I've had a listen to the ex-TAKE THAT star's latest effort and it's a No1 hit. Simple as that.

It's just what his army of loyal fans have been waiting three long years for.

Some interesting themes crop up on the 51-minute, 13-track release, out on November 9.

There's the obligatory girlfriend track about AYDA FIELD, the woman responsible for sorting his life out.

There's another which definitely isn't about her, with some cheeky wrist-related lyrics - and he's not talking about tossing pancakes.

I got my hands on a Press copy of Rob's new CD which he released under the pseudonym Luke Moody to defy internet pirates.

It probably won't attract a legion of new followers - the album, with Rob posing on a motorbike on the sleeve, is hardly modern.

But legendary knobs and dials man TREVOR HORN has steered Rob back on course.

Hats off to him for returning to a winning formula.
Muckers

It's genuinely something for fans to get excited about. And like his old Take That muckers, the songs will sound even better live with a stadium audience singing it back to him.

Rob is currently hanging out with his old bandmates in New York.

He flew in from LA to surprise MARK OWEN for his stag do.

He was also seen hanging out in the studio with the lads because he was invited to hear the first mix of their upcoming live album.

Here's my track-by-track review of Rob's CD.

1. MORNING SUN: Has the feel of a Carpenters/Burt Bacharach ballad. Lyrics about astronauts and space crop up. One of the top three songs on the album.

2. BODIES: I rate this first single. This could be an Ian Brown track. The best song here.

3. YOU KNOW ME: The second single. Has to be the song on the album about Ayda Field. Only criticism - backing vocals sound like Sir Paul McCartney's Frog Chorus.

4. BLASPHEMY: Big string arrangement. Rob's vocal is impressive, even though it's one of the weaker songs.

5. DO YOU MIN My least favourite song. A bit of a filler.

6. LAST DAYS OF DISCO: Has a Pet Shop Boys, electro sound to it. Trevor Horn stamped all over it.

7. SOMEWHERE: A 60-second string arrangement with good vocal.

8. DECEPTACON: Hints about missing UK, with lyric "goodbye to Deceptacons" - his word for LA parasites. Great tune.

9. STARSTRUCK: Could be another ode to LA life. Great lyrics. "Everybody's famous", "Knock one off the wrist". Ahem.

10. DIFFICULT FOR WEIRDOS: Electro-tinkering and effects on Rob's voice. Pet Shop Boys-esque again.

11. SUPERBLIN Classic cocky Robbie, contemplating his future. "I'm the genius behind me. What will they think, when they think about me?" Top.

12. WON'T DO THAT& 13. MORNING SUN REPRISE: Rob introduces brass for the final fanfare. A rousing, upbeat finish.

The Sun

[Iceman]

Sounds like a right classic...

[Scarlett.]

Indeed, from the CD cover you can tell he just wants to please he fans with this one (and not try and attract new ones like with Rudebox xD)

[Iceman]

Whens it out by the way?

[Scarlett.]

9th November

I just love the title, seeing as the Producer is the one who sung Video killed the radio star xD

[Iceman]

I know I like the double meaning thing..

was reading about what he was going to call it....

[Scarlett.]

lol Il Protaganisto? xD I would have had trouble remembering that

he also quite liked Politebox

[Iceman]

I know yeah I wouldnt have been able to remember it, but then again, I thought I'd have trouble remembering Arctics first album : Whatever people Say I Am That's What I'm Not...

[Scarlett.]

Lol, that probably another reason it was changed xD

[Iceman]

anyway im off to the land of nod, my bed has stopped calling me and is now throwing things at me.....
