All we ever wanted was to look good naked



First impressions of the new Robbie:

1. Fantastic opening beat - sounds like Rock DJ meets Rudebox
2. "Did Jesus really die for me?.." Heavily religious lyrics; interesting for a man who the tabloids have made out to have spent the last few years chasing UFO's around LA
3.  FIRST CHORUS! sounds like Robbie Williams of old.  And I'm very happy about it.
4. I have no idea what this song is about...
5.  Final chorus... is that a key change? Well done indeed.
6.  Second play through: this sounds sounds good LOUD.
7.  Thank god Robbie didn't decide to do this album with RedOne / Timbaland / Pharallel.

  1. the sound is kind of gritty, whereas rudebox was very techy as an album. i miss the clear vocals on intensive care. but still....god i love this man.
