Customer Rating:      Summary: The End? Comment: Got this CD over a year ago and still can't get over the painful listening
of the once great Robbie Williams. Whatever happened? This looked like a rush effort to compete with the UK Top 40 newbies. Intensive Care is still a better effort than this. He badly need better material for the next release or we would lose him forever.
Customer Rating:      Summary: great Comment: really good. if you.ve never gotten into robbie this is a good place to start. sharply produced, confessional brit-pop and very funny.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Why All The Fuzz Comment: For some reason Rudebox has gotten a ton of awful press, and its sales were nowhere near the lot of Robbie's previous efforts but to me he has finally done what I wanted him to do - he made a record that I will play just as much as Sing When You're Winning. Not that Robbie's last two CDs were bad it's just that they were familiar, they were just extensions of what he has done before, but with Rudebox it seems he's headed to a newer dimension, a starkly dark yet thrilling disco where you can both shake your rudebox and do the rudebox all at the same time. The opening title cut is just plain dance fun silliness though so is most of the album, yet it's all together quite catchy - "Viva Life On Mars" with it's 'uh huhs' reminds me of a ten different songs all great, and the Lily Allen pseudo duet "Bongo Bong and Je Ne T'aime Plus" is just fun as hell. I'm a tad confused over "She's Madonna" no matter how many times I hear it, I can't tell if he's telling his girl he has to leave cause Madonna wants him or it's just some strange fantasy, Madonna makes another appearance in "The Actor" which breaks down in the middle to list a ton of actors working a la Miss M's "Vogue", "We're The Pet Shop Boys" with the actual Pet Shop Boys is all very, well, Pet Shop Boys, and his two autobiographical takes "The 80's" and "The 90's" are better than I expected. All in all, Rudebox is a much welcome addition to Robbie's post Guy Chambers albums and I think he's finally having some fun.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Have not taken this out of my box! Comment: I am guilty of completely overlooking Robbie. It took Jessica's Angels cover to get me to notice. I herd about Madonna being mentioned a couple of times on this disc so I bought it. Right on Robbie, it has not left my CD player yet. Anyone who grew up in the Eighties will love this record. Madonna, Pet Shop Boys, Human League, Run DMC and Beastie Boys are all paid homage. My favorite William Orbit is one of the producers, very cool!
Hope this helps sway you 'cause when you buy it He'll get you to shake your Rude Box, Michael
Customer Rating:      Summary: Robbie's Best So Far Comment: There is something for everyone on this CD, but that doesn't mean it is a miss-mosh by any means. Robbie perfectly conveys his feelings for each song and you get it. It has been the only CD in my car for nearly a month. I wish the American audience understood Robbie's music - they are really missing out.

Editorial Reviews:

Japanese pressing of Robbie Williams' highly anticipated and much talked about 2006 album. Rudebox sees Robbie collaborating with an array of musical mavericks. These include his heroes Pet Shop Boys, king of ambient William Orbit, fellow Stoke natives Danny Spencer & Kelvin Andrews (AKA Soul Mekanik), Disco-House icon Joey Negro and NYC-based DJ cum-Über producer Mark Ronson. There are both new original compositions and covers of some of his favorite tracks by artists as diverse as Manu Chao, The Human League, My Robot Friend, Lewis Taylor and old friend Stephen Duffy. Through its 16 tracks, Rudebox marks out and charts Robbie's musical loves and life. EMI. 2006.2006
