For one, he's gray. (So am I, but that's between me an my hairdresser)

Secondly the words to the song he's singing .....he wrote for his DD.

Now when you go dancing with young men down at the disco
Just keep it simple
You don't have to kiss though

Don't waste time with the idiots that think that they're heroes
They will betray you
Stick with us weirdos

I love that song. It makes me tear up.

I've always liked Robbie even though most on here think he is a prat.

He isn't a brilliant singer but my god he is amazing Live.

Really enjoying Robbies show but can do without Kermit and Miss Piggy. Lily Allen can sing better than I used to think.

FiscalCliffRocksThisTown · 06/12/2013 20:38

But , somehow, it is a tiny bit creepy, that song

Don't like overprotective dads

I've met him a few times and he's not a very nice man. I can understand his appeal though.

I love Rufus

I've heard he's not great towards fans/members of the public, but I think he's great on stage (only saw him once, years and years ago, singing with Take That (it wasn't a Take That concert) but Robbie really stood out.

I don't think the song is over protective!? But then my father would never have given me such advice or affection.

A close family member worked with him for quite a while and says he is lovely. Lots of issues but a nice man.

Friend if mine met him back in the early days. He turned up at a university friend's digs and Robbie was there. Friend said he was just a normal bloke, having a laugh and a drink. Friend didn't actually know who he was. Was only after his fried old him - he was none the wiser lol!

I think that song is quite sweet, even though I'm not a massive Robbie fan. Of course he's an overprotective dad- she's about 14 months old or something and his first child!

Pinupgirl · 06/12/2013 21:00

He was making my ears bleed so I turned it over.

ShinyBauble · 07/12/2013 13:51

I think he's a hypocrite. Not long after his daughter was born he was surrounded by near naked women on stage. Something he wouldn't want for his pfb I'm sure.

caramelwaffle · 07/12/2013 13:57

I agree with shiny

Mahoosive hypocrite on so many levels.

On another point, I thought his voice was strained.

womma · 10/12/2013 21:36

Oh he's bloody dreadful!

sooperdooper · 10/12/2013 21:38

He makes me want to cry too, bloody awful!

polyhymnia · 10/12/2013 23:30

Can't stand him or his music (eg, Angels - yuk) - but plenty of people can, it seems.
