Free Music Notes for Ego Has Landed (Alternate Track)

Free Music Review: Phenomenal Album
Hit: 5 Stars

Going back and re-listening to this album a few years after its release its clear Robbie Williams deserves to have made a mark on the music industry in the way he has. His lyrics and music alnoe make the album enjoyable, and Williams' cheeky part boy band, part ol timer, part rocker voice makes for a stand-out sound to the album as a whole.

There are a number of singles that were released either in the UK, US, or both in a few cases...The album starts off with the upbeat Lazy Days which isn't bad, but not the best song, then goes right into the dreamy "Millenium" with crazy lyrics and a really unique violin riff, a single that did well on 'both sides of the pond'. "No Regrets" Is one of my fave songs, another UK single I believe that is mid-tempo and quite bitter towards an ex of Robbies. "Strong" is another guitar-esque mid-tempo track you will find scattered throughout the album, but def. one of the stronger ones...I'm not sure if it was a single but it sounds really familiar. Cute lyrics in the beginning about Rob's dad.

"Angels" Is another standout on the album that did well in both the US and Uk. Its a beautiful soaring ballad about love and sprituality...gorgeous, I can never stop listening to this. "Win Some, Lose Some" is another guitar-mid-tempo (we'll call them GMT's) track with a good chorus but the rest is a bit...blase. "Let Me Entertain You" Is another big classic Robbie hit, awesome lyrics and really get and up and go style of song, when ur in the right mood for it, its an amazing track.

Tracks 8-11 aren't particularly special in my mind, some more GMT stuff and a bit more or a rock edge here and there..>I should point out though that I'm not criticizing Robbie's guitar-y pop music, I just think that I mark this album by the singles which are markedly different and really special on their own...from each other, and from the rest of the songs on the album.

"She's The One" remains to be one of my fave songs of Robbies of all time. A beautiful piano ballad with a beautiful video this was another big hit at the Brit awards the year it was released. Amazing song...beatlesesque in some ways. "Karma Killer" Is another kinda rocky song...almost reminds me a bit of some of todays emo music but Rob's voice doesn't suit hte genre. Finally we end with "One of god's better people" a beautiful yet slightly repetitive acoustic track that I adore listening to when I'm in a mellow mood. Listen up for the secret message after this song!

All in all a really really good album no matter which genres you like, Robbie has a pleasant voice, a variety of styles and tempos, and some not-so-arbitrary lyrics as most pop males are sought to release.

Ego Has Landed (Alternate Track) Poster

Spanish version of 1999 collection, orignally released in the US only features one exclusive bonus track, 'Angels' (Spanish version). EMI. 2002.
Robbie Williams, a self-proclaimed casualty of the British boy-blitz Take That, scuffed his squeaky-clean image by rabble-rousing with Britpop troublemakers Oasis and reemerged as a part-James Bond, part-Frank Sinatra renaissance pop star. A little fast-living combined with his vocal charm, Williams's U.S. debut, The Ego Has Landed, offers a collection of cheeky, inescapably loveable songs served up with a nudge, a wink, and a pinch on the bum. --Beth Massa
Robbie Williams was a teenage pop star in the U.K. as a member of Take That (think New Kids on the Block); his first solo album, Life Thru a Lens, tanked--until the single "Angels" was released and became a mega-hit. His follow-up album, I've Been Expecting You, spawned more hits--"Millennium," "Let Me Entertain You"--and, somewhat unexpectedly, transformed Williams from prefab pop star to artist. The Ego Has Landed, his U.S. debut, collects songs from his two prior British releases and lives up to the hype. Though he's still somewhat prefabricated, borrowing wholesale from Oasis (whose Liam Gallagher was an idol of Williams's), George Michael, the Pet Shop Boys (whose Neil Tennant cowrote and sings backup on "No Regrets"), and even Tom Jones, Williams injects plenty of his own personality--brash and bold but rarely bratty. He's a born entertainer, plain and simple--"Let Me Entertain You," which would fit in well on Tommy, is plenty campy but only somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and he makes no apologies for it. The one caveat here is that the album is front-loaded, with all of the hits coming in the first half--but there's also a good chance that you won't mind. --Randy Silver
