Nightowl: Sorry, I have never heard of Robbie or take back,I wish I had,but think it's a us thing,and maybe an age thing to,maybe not,I have heard of the other two in fact my niece to this day is backstreet nuts about them, sorta like we all are about Adam 😉😄😄 It’s „Take That“  The other 2 boybands are American, so maybe that’s the reason, why you‘ve heard about them? I don’t think there is one single adult person in Europe or Australia, who hasn’t heard about Take That at all. By the way: I got curious, where Robbie has been touring in the past. It’s mainly Europe and Australia/NZ. And a bit of South and Middle America and South Africa every couple of years as well. The US is mainly a white spot. Your loss, I would say.Â

Your loss, I would say. I was aware of Robbie and have some of his music. l love “Angels “. Many of my favorites are not American bands. I saw them on TV and the record stores carried popular music from all over., before the internet. Honestly tho, I don’t think theres anyway Robbies’ voice could hold up during Queen tours with the difficulty of the music. They needed a powerhouse like Adam. A one in a billion voice. I had the misfortune of seeing Queen with Paul Rodgers... yikes ...he was a terrible fit. How lucky they found each other. It revived an amazing classic band and allowed the world to see and hear the unmatched talent of Adam Lambert

I really never knew about Robbie Williams until I saw Adam interact with him. I have never watch his videos so I can't really comment on his talent. Maybe I am wrong, but I don't think he was ever a big name artist here in America. That’s almost unbelievable from my European point of view. Robbie is a mega star. Or was. Now I would „only“ call him a superstar. But still in the same league as QAL. I don't remember where I learned of him but have played him for years. I would def. put out good dollars to go see him if he played near me. I especially love Angles and Come Undone, of course. Imagine what we would pay if Adam would ever do what Robbies does re bringing up a girl onto the stage for a dance and peck....not that we oldies would ever get that pick...or even a 'she' for Adam...so forget I said that hehehe. He did twirl momtomany that one show...guess that is about as close as most of us could ever home for...and that was momentous. lol

Must be a US thing as others have said. I wouldn't recognize anything he's ever done. And I feel like I've paid attention to all types of music. Missed this one for sure!💜 Adding my sister is a big Paul Rodgers fan but she didn't like him with Queen. She loves Adam!💖

I went to see when Robbie was in Vegas....he is actually there in two groupings...but I have spent all I can manage to see Adam....Oh my I wish I could manage a second trip...or that his time there coincided with Adam's. Damn!

Here’s where you can see the biggest pop stars this Pride season American singer-songwriter Adam Lambert has been flying the flag for the LGBTQ community since he came out to the public in 2009. He became the first openly gay man to top the US album charts, and has toured the world as the frontman of Queen. Now, he’s performing at his first ever UK pride event as he takes to the stage at Manchester Pride Live! in August, bringing his powerhouse vocals and songs including Whataya Want From Me, Superpower and new single Roses to the city’s huge LGBTQ celebrations. Where: Manchester Pride on Sunday 30 August What we want to hear: Ghost Town, If I Had You, Roses www.gaytimes.co.uk/culture/132239/biggest-artists-london-birmingham-manchester-brighton-pride/

I don't think he would do anything like that now and he would be wise not to. Too many accusations floating around now. But that girl was absolutely over the moon, lol. It was just a fun show and no one cared about his sexuality. They were thinking how lucky is she. HA!
