This blog entry is influenced by the recent meeting of Robbie Williams and Take That on the same stage. It was a charity concert for Children In Need. There was no reunion performance we all hoped for, however they have met on stage! That's something, right? :) After the concert Williams confirmed he has secretly recorded a couple of songs with Take That... the songs he described as 'amazing'. Can you feel excitement in the air? Well... there is definitely some on my [unshaved] face right now.

To be honest, I have never been a huge fan of either. I do love their music though (come on, who doesn't? If someone doesn't, crawl back to your tasteless 'straight' kingdom! Seriously.)

Speaking of their music...

I have come across one of Bee Gees' songs - "How Deep Is Your Love" - in its new version. Performed by Take That!

They sing it pretty well. But it's mostly about the video:

Some people find it deeply disturbing... I mean, yes, ya ya ya, it is very disturbing! The idea with that dominatrix (she's gorgeous, isn't she?) is terrible. But .. but... isn't it beautiful?

Purely from the artsy point of view, it is beautiful. Every shot is so good you can put it up on your wall (Wow, that would be hell of a fetishist wall.)

And I've never noticed Take That were so (almost) homo-erotically photogenic! Good Lord! Britain's got talent.

Anyway. I should stop drinking coffee. With painkillers. And South African red. I sound high even on paper.
