Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Stoke's favourite son's sixth studio album marks a new stage in the career of Mr Robert Peter Williams, Britain's favourite popular entertainer. Severed from his former right hand man, songwriter Guy Chambers, Intensive Care sees him forging a new partnership with former Lilac Time stalwart Stephen Duffy. The result is his most complete album to date, free from the gimmicky fillers--like "Me and My Monkey" and "Jesus In A Camper Van"--that tended to drag previous efforts down.Never short of cocksure bravado, Robbie starts proceedings off with a modest declaration—"Here I stand victorious, the only man who made you come", but for once he's got the tunes to back up the posturing. There're plenty of classic Robbie tracks, from the ballad-tastic "Advertising Space"--which should see "Angels" relegated to the backbenches--to the public confessional of "The Trouble With Me"; plus some daring departures in between, from the '80s pop fun of "Sin Sin Sin" to the Rolling Stones-a-like "A Place To Crash", via the Oasis-lite of "Make Me Pure" and the Smiths-esque guitars on "Your Gay Friend". You can't help but feel that Mr Williams has a point to make with this album, to all the people who said he'd be nothing without Guy Chambers; if that is the case, he couldn't have gone about it a better way than by serving up the best album of his career to date. --Melanie Wilkin

Product Description

"I'm a huge fan of The Lilac Time, so I thought I'd spend a couple of days writing some folk songs with Stephen Duffy, just for a change."

Two years of continuous writing and recording later, Robbie Williams returns with a brand new album Intensive Care. "Tripping" is the first single which Robbie describes as "something like a mini-gangster Opera

5.0 out of 5 stars A more grown up album, 24 Oct 2005
By Mrs. G. Potts "satsuma77" (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Intensive Care [CD + DVD] (Audio CD)
I've had a few listens through now, having got my copy a couple of days early (thank you Mr Post office!)

This album is definitely a more mature production from Robbie. Songs that grab you straight away - Make Me Pure, The Trouble with Me and Advertising Space, which has a definite U2 influence. Then the songs that take a couple of listens like Tripping, Ghosts and Sin Sin Sin.

The influences of Robbie's upbringing near Manchester and that of Stephen Duffy are evident in a lot of the album with an 80s beat particularly strong in Sin Sin Sin.

This is heading to be one of my favourite Robbie albums, his voice has improved and the song writing has definitely improved. He's not missing Guy Chambers at all. Even if you've never liked Robbie before, give this one a go.

5.0 out of 5 stars Robbie's back and better than ever!, 14 Nov 2005
By Kathryn Reynolds (Charlotte, North Carolina, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Intensive Care [CD + DVD] (Audio CD)
Having been disappointed with his last studio effort, 'Escapology', I was looking forward to this album with hesitancy. However, after having listened to 2 songs, I knew that Robbie was back and better than ever! I very much enjoyed the entire album, standout tracks (for me) include: Ghosts, Spread Your Wings, Advertising Space, Sin Sin Sin, and The Trouble With Me. I had already heard the single 'Tripping' sometime last month, so I had a feeling that it would be a stellar album, and I wasn't disappointed!

My advice: go out and buy this album! I haven't heard a better Robbie since 1998's 'I've Been Expecting You', but even now I think this is slightly better than it. A more mature, reflective Robbie is what you'll get with this album!

The added DVD was really great as well. As a Robbie fan from the US, I haven't had the opportunity to see him live, so the interviews and live studio bits were really helpful to me to see how he works, and what he's really like.

So go on, buy it! You know you want to! :)

5.0 out of 5 stars Greatness indeed, 2 Aug 2006
This review is from: Intensive Care [CD + DVD] (Audio CD)
Oh my - WHAT an album! Excellent music; lyrics witty, bitter and melancholy. With touches of whimsy too, of course. Robbie has always been able to sing well, but here he's taking more chances with his voice, experimenting successfully here and there. This album is stylistically very varied, but this doesn't sound like confusion, it sounds like the confidence of a singer-songwriter and a writing partnership founded on rock-solid talent and eagerness to stretch the bounds. Yes, there are influences from elsewhere to be heard, but Rob appropriates them and makes them his own. I won't pick a favourite song because they all have merit. And, by the way, I thought "Me and My Monkey" from "Escapology" was funny....
