Was 'Back for good' written for Robbie Williams, in the period of their last shilly-shallying before Rob left? And ... have you ever seen two guys being as lovely as they are? N.B:

(*) as you know, Gas tried to call Rob in 2003, near Christmas. He - supposition - has probably listened to the song "I tried love" and the lines "does God ever get it wrong? where has Gary Barlow gone? why is Christmas day so long?" (the only serious lines of that song ..) and he understood Rob's pain. In fact, Gas said to Josie (Rob's assistant) that he wanted to give up the fight between them before another Christmas has gone by. And Rob, questioning Josie about Gary's words, focused on the Christmas detail. In fact, after Josie told him about the content of the call, he asked Josie again if Gary said just those words, 'before another Christmas has gone by'. BTW, Rob didn't find the strength to call him back. But he wrote 'Ghosts' immediately just after that call (January - February 2004). The line "I've read your mind and tried to call, my tears could fill the Albert Hall" included in the song Shame have probably to be referred to this try happened in 2003.

Here it is the the original song text fo Back for good (Rob's changes stressed):

I guess now it's time for me to give up [TO THROW UP]
I feel it's time
Got a picture of you beside me
Got you're lipstick mark still on your coffee cup [UH...WASHED-UP!]
Got a fist of pure emotion
Got a head of shattered dreams
[WHY NOT] Gotta leave it, gotta leave it all behind now

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood

Unaware but underlined I figured out this story
It wasn't good
But in the corner of my mind I celebrated glory [I CONTEMPLATED A FOREPLAY]
But that was not to be
In the twist of separation you excelled at being free
Can't you find a little room inside for me?

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood

And we'll be together, this time is forever
We'll be fighting [NO MORE FIGHTING] and forever we will be
So complete in our love
We will never be uncovered again

Whatever I said, whatever I did I didn't mean it
I just want you back for good
Whenever I'm wrong just tell me the song and I'll sing it
You'll be right and understood
I want you back for good

I guess now it's time, that you come back [THAT YOU'LL BE BACK] for good.

  • I really love your videos. You have the ability to catch the most short and meaningful moments between these too. Keep up the good work and look forward to seeing more.

    PS Have you ever thought of making a video with Gary's song Yesterday's Girl? Now those are some awesome lyrics and very explicit lol...

  • @scp4ever91 Hi thank you very much for your compliments and for taking the time to watch my vids and to leave your comment! Yeah, that's an interesting song .. the official version says he's speaking about Howard and his (ex)girlfriend and about the fact How shared his troubles with him. We can think it's true or not...

  • No I certainly haven't ever seen such a lovely guy couple as this...

  • @siyaya15 2 lovely guys indeed x

  • What an amazing video. I sincerely hope they know that we love them, no matter what.

    Thank you so much, Liz, and I hope you had a good start into the new year. :)

    I wasn't able to watch your other new vids yet (what else is new), but I'll manage eventually, so don't worry about it.

  • @innerchild2002 Hi, I'm well, hope you're fine too! Thanks a lot for taking the time to watch it..let me know if you come into troubles with the others! Abs agree... it doesn't matter if they're gonna be honest or not..if they sold us lies (well, I never believed XD) ..I don't judge and I don't care.. I think each man in this world just wants to be loved for being who he truly is and...they have to know they are loved just for being themselves xx

see all

  • @winasls Thank you so much,I do love the boys.I really think when they're together something magic happens.I don't care if their choices are not that brave, I'm nobody 2 tell them 'you should say that' or 'you should do this'.. I just love them no matter what. I've always loved them,I've grown up with them,I've always hoped things could turn right I'm just glad 2 see them smile again,I just want them 2 be as happy as they can.Glad you loved the vid & thanks 4 taking the time 2 leave your comment

  • I watched all of your videos and I'm loving it all. I admire you for the amount of the effort you put into every single video. I've always loved these two, and your videos make me love them even more. Rob in the past is so hurtful that it makes me flinch, and how oblivioius Gary was to the fact Rob was hurting/suffering... It's such a relief that it's all just the past now and they made up. I love them for that.

  • @brok341 Thanks a lot for taking the time to comment on here! I've watched a loooooot of vids in fact, but I knew what I was looking for because I had already watched them in the past.. glad you loved xx

  • @lunakutres I'm so grateful you took the time 2 leave a comment here..yeah BFG is special, it's a mix of true lines & fake 1s but still you see the truth behind;the heartbreaking part 4 me has always been "I figured out this story, it wasn't good, but in a corner of my mind I celebrated glory, but it was not to be".Since I was a child, before I got it, I always felt it was "weird" & very sad. Why was he obliged 2 celebrate glory just in a corner of his mind,why was it wrong,why was it not to be?
