Alesha Dixon's new single: it has every chance of being above average



As should have become clear over the last decade Alesha Dixon is amazing. This is solid gold pop fact.

Anyway she was up a mountain recently and she bumped into Gary Barlow who also happened to be there, and Gary said, "how would you like to be pointed at in my recording studio?" and Alesha said, "oh alright then", and while she was in there being pointed at (PICTORIAL EVIDENCE ABOVE) she also just so happened to co-write a song with GB.
The song is called 'To Love Again' (which sounds strong 'n' empowering for the ladies does it not), it's out as a single on November 15, it's being chucked onto a re-released version of 'The Alesha Show' (subtitled 'The Encore') which is out the following week, and it's potentially quite good but we haven't heard it yet so we'll report back in due course.

Take That Up For Q Award...

Take That are up for Best Live Act at this year's Q Awards!!!

The world's finest music awards is upon us once more. Ladies and Gentlemen, start your voting engines - and win the chance to join us on the day!

Last year's Q Awards with Russian Standard Vodka saw Grace Jones in a devil mask, Coldplay wearing Napoleonic army cast-offs and Kaiser Chiefs dressed as, er, bin men. This year's Q Awards, on Monday, 26 October, will be a similarly star-studded affair and will no doubt also feature plenty of sartorial madness - and, of course, much more besides.

They are up against The Prodigy, Coldplay, U2. Oasis, Kasabian, Arctic Monkeys and Blur. So it's stiff competition!

You can vote for the lads here: http://awards.qthemusic.com/

TT já escreve novo álbum

Take That were beaming from eat to ear after winning Band of The Year. “we’re writing our new album now, but you’ll have to wait a while for it,’ Howard Donald told us. ‘we’ve got a good friendship with Robbie Williams, but can’t say if we’ll work together again. He’s got his new stuff coming out, but I wouldn’t expect him to tour – he hates it.

Yoko and the Fab 4

Best Band ... Take That
Best Band ... Take That

YOKO ONO has given her blessing to TAKE THAT as the UK's new Fab Four.

JOHN LENNON's widow revealed she is a big fan of the man band - and named their No1 Shine as her favourite track.

GARY BARLOW, MARK OWEN, HOWARD DONALD and JASON ORANGE met Yoko on stage at the GQ Men Of The Year Awards at the Royal Opera House in Covent Garden, London, as she presented them with the gong for Best Band.

Beaming Yoko said: "I love Shine. I know most of their greatest hits. They're a great British band."

Praise ... Yoko OnoPraise ... Yoko Ono

And the feeling's mutual.

Mark said: "It's amazing that Yoko thinks that about our music. It is an honour to accept an award from her."

The pat on the back from Yoko at last night's bash comes after Gary and Co have been holed up in Abbey Road Studios for two days working on a secret project.

The lads have just returned from a three-month break and met up on Monday at the famous London studios where THE BEATLES recorded almost all their famous hits.

A new live DVD is being released in time for Christmas documenting Take That's sold-out Circus UK tour.

The DVD will also feature a bonus disc of the band playing hits in the world-famous Studio Two at Abbey Road - where hits including Hey Jude were recorded.

Just so you know, Gary is on piano, Mark on bass, Jason on guitar and Howard on drums.

Speaking just before the GQ bash, Gary said: "It's been absolutely amazing in Abbey Road. "The place just has an aura about it. There's so much history about it. I'd love to record our next album there."

All of the lads are relishing being back in the studio after their well-deserved break.

Jason said: "We've had a great holiday and now it's back to work."

And Howard told me: "I did some DJing in Ibiza so I haven't had as long a holiday as the other guys but it's good to be back. I've played a bit of golf but I'm not ready to take you on yet, Smarty."

Gary also revealed he has had a listen to old bandmate ROBBIE WILLIAMS' new album Reality Killed The Video Star - and loved it.

He said: "I've heard Robbie's album. I think it's great. "I can hear TREVOR HORN's influence on it. I would buy anything that guy does. "Rob's music still has an Eighties electronic feel but it sounds fresh."

That sounds like a seal of approval to me.

Take That give 'brilliant' Robbie thumbs up

The Take That boys have given their stamp of approval to the solo comeback bid of long lost brother Robbie Williams.

Singer Mark Owen says he was one of the first to have a listen to Rob's new hit Bodies and has branded it 'brilliant'.

Meanwhile the dad of two was revelling in a rare night out on the lash after his band scooped the best Band gong at the GQ shindig. The 37-year-old said: 'We haven't had a decent night out in ages because of the tour, so it's just great to finally get out.'


Meanwhile we found poor old Jason Orange lost in showbiz after joining him for a drink out on the balcony of the Royal Opera house.
Like a lost puppy, he asked me: 'Have you seen where all my colleagues are? I've been totally abandoned!'
Of course we sent him off for the wrong way just for a laugh after having our cheeky snap with Mr Barlow himself!

Gary has a Lott to talk about

GARY BARLOW has been on his hols for three months.

He was in a sociable mood on Tuesday night. In fact, on the evidence of the other night charming YOKO ONO and DIZZE RASCAL, he's welcome to a job on Bizarre. Ring me with the stories, Gary.

Mum Beverley said: "We were really worried about her when she was little. "We thought something was wrong but it turned out she was just painfully shy.


Chatty ... Gary Barlow with Yoko OnoChatty ... Gary Barlow with Yoko Ono

"She didn't really start talking until she went to school. I thank her stage school Italia Conti for drawing her out of herself." The Essex singer is set to land her second No 1 on Sunday with single Boys And Girls.


Rascals ... Barlow with DizzeeRascals ... Barlow with Dizzee

She was 6,000 sales ahead of DAVID GUETTA who has released When Love Takes Over featuring KELLY ROWLAND in the midweek chart.

Pixie was at her first GQ Awards on Tuesday night - where I saw more than a few lads giving her the eye. The night before MICKEY ROURKE, who was also at the bash, tried his luck.

She said: "He was lovely but he's old enough to be my dad. "I don't have a fella but there are a couple of options. "I really don't have time for a man, though. I'm too busy. If I did meet someone, it would be easier if they weren't famous."

PIXIE LOTT was so shy when she was younger she refused to talk. The chart-topper's mother told me her stunning daughter was almost mute until she was six.

Jason Orange Charms at GQ

TASTY Take Thatter Jason Orange was so drunk at the GQ Men of the Year awards, he couldn’t be bothered to carry his Best Band gong around.

The mullered man band member, 39, handed it to us asking us to take care of it for him, while he flirted his way around the room. We spotted the snake-hipped charmer getting cosy with several sozzled blondes, before making a beeline for the bar.

An hour later he returned, gave us a sloppy kiss, stroked our faces and minced off. He promptly left his gong in a corner.

Band: Take That in GQ

Band: Take That

Take That - Gary Barlow, Mark Owen, Jason Orange and Howard Donald - are the biggest band in Britain. Since their 2006 comeback after a decade in the wilderness, they have sold close to five million albums. The Circus, released last December, topped the charts for five weeks. The Circus live show was the fastest-selling tour in UK history. The Wembley concerts alone are a staggering achievement. No other group - not U2, not Coldplay, not Oasis - attempted to sell more than three nights there this year. If nostalgia accounted for the immediate success of their return, then it's something else that is sustaining this second act in the life of the nation's favourite former boy band.

"Our story is too complicated to sum up in a few lines," says Gary. "If we'd tried to plan it like this it would never have happened.

Take One

Michael Joseph
Hardback : 29 Oct 2009

Synopsis
The pop phenomenon that is Take That was formed in Manchester in 1990. Throughout the first half of the '90s the band sold an unbelievable 60 million records, resulting in two of the best-selling albums of the decade: Everything Changes (which was nominated for the 1994 Mercury Prize) and Greatest Hits in 1996. Their rise to the top was well-documented in the media but in Take One they tell, for the first time, their version of this incredible story of superstardom.

Take One gains you exclusive insight into life on tour during those early years, with over 150 never-before-seen photographs. Glimpse at the world inside their hotel rooms, go backstage during their amazing stage shows around the globe, and see from their unique perspective the ever-present, overwhelmingly loyal fans that followed them everywhere - perhaps you'll recognise yourself...

To accompany these exceptional unseen images, a narrative, written by the boys runs throughout, candidly and humorously documenting the highs and lows, the frenzy and hysteria - and the often surreal moments - of the meteoric rise of the world's greatest boy band.


Take Two

Michael Joseph
Hardback : 29 Oct 2009

Synopsis
When Gary Barlow, Howard Donald, Jason Orange and Mark Owen released 'Patience' on November 20, 2006, over a decade since Take That split up, the world welcomed them back with open arms to their rightful position at the top of the charts. Their return to glory has become one of the most exciting stories in British pop music and in Take Two they tell the amazing story of their comeback for the first time.

With over 150 exclusive and personal images, and accompanied by humorous and revealing commentary written by the boys, relive first-hand the exceptional, and often heart-warming, experiences that make up the second part of the Take That story.

Entrevista de Robbie na Capital FM

Robbie Williams quer voltar aos Take That depois de terminar o trabalho em torno do novo álbum Reality Killed The Video Star.
O intérprete disse à BBC que já o teria feito se não fosse o mau desempenho do último disco Rudebox. "Percebi que era melhor parar, voltar e depois juntar-me aos meus antigos colegas", explicou.
Reality Killed The Video Star sai a 9 de Novembro. O single "Bodies" chega a 11 de Outubro.

Robbie confirmou que até certo ponto ele trabalhará com os seus antigos colegas. "Eles estão a divertir-se muito, e eu tenho visto a digressão. Quando nos juntamos temos a melhor gargalhada." disse Robbie. Johnny e Robbie declaram Mark Owen como o "homem mais porreiro no mundo" e Robbie confessa que o seu maior medo sobre voltar ao activo com a banda é ter que dançar bem com o resto dos rapazes.
