I am very familiar with him, I just don't remember putting him in and I can't think of anyone who does parodies of him so I'm not sure who submitted him, may have been me. . .may even be a secret round, but I'm not sure what I was thinking since not many are familiar with him if it was me who put him in, at any rate, he is a typical pop star--but some of the links above reflect live covers as opposed to songs actually by him. . .Millenium is his biggest hit to my knowledge, and She's Madonna would be the second most popular--again these are based purely on personal knowledge of his work, not on sales or anything as I'm not familiar with the statistical data for him--neither are listed here but anyone who is looking for fun Robbie Williams songs, those two are good targets.

I went through the Artistry Nominations thread, and no-one seemed to have nominated him. The last nominees were Barry White Bob Marley by Matthias...Robbie just sort of showed up. He's not a secret artist, I keep track of all this, so I should know...maybe it was a post that was deleted for whatever reason, or maybe Dave had a brain-fart and put him on for some reason, I dunno...

What I do know is that I'm either gonna do "Trippin'" or "Man for all Seasons" (the Johnny English theme) for this round.

Interesting, while this guy is virtually unheard of here. . .he has 8 studio albums, is in the British Rock Hall of Fame, 7 of his 8 albums were number one albums, virtually every single is a UK billboard hit, not to mention huge all over Europe, and his one non-number one album is his most recent, which bowed at 2nd. . .he's got some big sales numbers, and apparently is huge on the other side of the pond.

Yeah, I noticed that too when I was looking through his albums and singles on Wikipedia for my entry. Go figure right?

I'm doing a pre-request for an extension on both this and the George Michael round to either the 11th or 12th, The next artist won't be drawn til then either. . .I'm going to be out of town with limited at best access to the internet, 12th is preferred, but I can work with the 11th. . .

Crap! I've been so busy working on my movie that I forgot all about this... I don't want to miss out on a round can I please get an extension? Although, I'm still going to be extremely busy until Monday... Can we extend this until Tuesday so I can use my free day to write a parody for this round?

Personally I'm fine with that because I can completely relate. . .even though I did get mine done yesterday--this contest is getting closer to done, would hate to see you miss your streak of entries over an easy artist like Robbie

Sorry guys... I've been extremely busy. You're going to have to do this round without me.
