Robbie is a great songwriter and performer, his personality is intriguing, I'd say he's  the greatest 1  of the last 45 years,-  have US ppl ever listened to his " Angels" or to " Kids" or to his " Feel or to his " eternity"- I bet they haven't.......

cos he doesn't want too..i mean he's already so popular in Europe and earns quite good money and also he doesn't want to live with the paparazzi all the time. U.S is the place, where he can escape from all the mess..

He's become more and more mainstream with time.  I had his one CD, Kirk Franklin and the Family.  Remember  "Why We Sing?" .  That was music that stirred your soul.  Everything is so funky and R+B now.  I'm not saying that funky and R+B are bad, it just ain't gospel music that takes you to another level.  He's become more worldly than spiritual.  So to answer the question, no, I'm not surprised.

I didn't even know that Bono sang that particular song! Still, I  think that Robbie has a better personality, he's more bubbly, and that song needs that...therefore, my vote goes to Robbie!

Yes, plus a great song writer as well. He wrote most of The Who's hit songs. Most of their songs, period.

I think that he is AMAZING!!  He is sexy, talented, and can get over hardships!!  He's been sober for almost TWO YEARS after an addiction to alcohol and Xanax, and that's really tight!

Never heard of him until you asked, but I listened to him just now.  He has a smooth sound.  But then isn't that characteristic of the R&B sound?  I think he's good-looking, too, if that counts.

I love him...he had an awesome voice and they'll never be anyone who can sing like him.  Just think of all the great music he could have made if he had lived longer!!  Sometimes I cry listening to some of his songs just because his voice is so beautiful.

Roger was so hot. He was amzing, by far the most handsome of all four of Queen. When he was sitting behind his drums it was even better, how he is drumming. I like to watch the Wembley 86 DVD and then the Roger Cam :). As much Roger as possible. Now he is indeed less handsome, although he lost a lot of weight for the European tour. I've some pictures were he looks very hot again. But later in the American tour he gained weight again :(. And he looks less attractive again. Though if you have seen him in his white outfit singing these are they days of our lives, I can say he still is a very good looking guy. Too bad he has this girlfriend called Sabrine Potgieter or something like that. I know a lot of Queen fan girls are big fans of him and dreamt being with him.

I love "The Pretender", "Somebody's Baby","Doctor My Eyes"...he's written so many good songs that it's hard to pick a favorite. \n\nHe's very underrated.\n\nTo the first person that responded, he's actually written a lot of songs for other people too, specifically the Eagles, Linda Ronstadt, the Byrds. He was even in the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band for a while, too.

I have only heard of one of his songs and it was alright. It would have been good if he could be more publicised a bit more. Joey McIntyre had a good run when 'Stay the same' was released. "Give It To You" by Jordan was awesome. Made my heart melt all over again.

i agree with you people in the fact that he is a talented person. he isn't really my style . however he is only 23 and has written songs for people such as Mary j blige, faith Evans, Mario and more. he was producing and writing songs before he started his own career, and i think that if he does fade away that he will continue to write great songs and produce other artists. he has done well for a boy of only 23 years. i don't think people should be judging him on only his own singing ability when he has done so much more than people know about. after all kanye west and pharrel Williams started out doing the exact same things and look at where they are today. and just so you know I'm not just another young girl who likes him for his looks, i don't actually, and i am not even a fan of his style of music. but i do believe he is talented and not just another fake. p.s. I LOVE FALL OUT BOY!!!
