Customer Reviews:
Unbelievable entertainer!!.......2004-08-19
I've been a HUGE Robbie fan since 1999. I cannot believe he hasn't made it big in the US yet---we are missing out on so much by him not being bigger here. You MUST purchase this DVD, even if you've never seen or heard of Robbie! He is the greatest entertainer I've ever seen----his energy and his humor are the best. He is so unpredictable---he is very emotional to the point of tears one song to kissing a fan on stage and loving it on another. Definitely the best DVD I have! Do yourself a favor and BUY IT NOW!! An added great---the sound quality is fantastic, if you play it loud, you will no doubt feel you were right there with Robbie!
LOVE LOVE LOVE ROBBIE!!!
What a show!!!.......2004-08-19
In only one word: INCREDIBLE. Robbie really rocks. This concert is the prove that some artist were born to sing nice songs and other ones to make people go crazy. This show is not only Robbie's performance, but it's also the band, chorus, the stage, those beautiful dancers (Kate & Nikky: What a HOT, HOT Girls!!!).
I bought this DVD some months ago and I didn't know which songs were included on this. When I saw it, the first thing I liked was the great interactive menu. That's a really good job. Not only for the animations and images, but the sound and background songs. So, at first sight: 5/5
Then, the track list. there are almost all Robbie Williams greatest songs. But I regreted two missing: "MILLENNIUM" and "SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL" (not played in the concert). But after watching this concert I got satisfied. The order of these songs are really nice, starting with "LET ME ENTERTAIN YOU", "WE WILL ROCK YOU" and going to a wondeful "MONSOON". A quieter part of the show comes with "SHE'S THE ONE", but it contrast with inmediately played "SUPREME". "KIDS" and "HOT FUSGE" are greatly complemented with those wonderful girls dancing all around the stage... That nice variant on starting of "ROCK DJ" really make people shout: "LAST NIGHT A DJ SAVED MY LIFE" then Robbie coming up from below the stage and those pretty girls doing their dance around him... The concert finish with a emotive "ANGELS". So, my qualification is 5/5
Robbie as a showman: Unique. He's always playing and talking to attendance. He's dancing and running, that's a prove of his energy and enthusiasm for giving people more than they espect from him. He's mad when he had, but he's also touched by his emotions as "FEEL" shows us. It's something difficult to explain but Robbie's behavior store many different ways of express his happiness and madness. He even call a girl to kiss her... many things we cannot see in ther concerts. 5/5
In conclusion: If you're a Robbie fan, it's your duty buying this DVD. You'll never see him like this again... Thinking twice... You will. But this is a chance to have all those things we couldn't see live and direct. If you're not a Robbie fan or maybe you haven't heard about him, BUY this DVD, to see how a great singer should guide a live show.
As Robbie said at Knetworth: THIS IS ROBIE WILLIAMS, THIS IS MY BAND... AND FOR THE NEXT TWO HOURS, YOUR ASS IS MINE!
Robbie Rocks!.......2004-05-25
I've said it before; I'll say it again. Robbie Williams is a genius. America has ignored him far too long. I know, I know, he used to be in a boy band. Forego the preconceptions. Listen to this man's music. The three days in Knebworth documented here are legendary already. Observe one of the world's finest entertainers hold half a million people in the palm of his hand. If this doesn't make you want to hear more, I don't know what will. Knebworth features his big hits, and they are all good, but trust me, some of Williams' finest music is to be found on the b-sides of his singles. He is the whole package: great looking; fabulous entertainer; and extraordinarily talented composer. You will not be disappointed. He's going to be around for decades. Get in on the ground floor America!
That's right- he's the real deal!!.......2004-03-15
I agree with my man, Evan, above. After seeing Robbie on MTV Europe, I wanted to get more of the SRO performer who seems to be all but known in America. This DVD will give him to you- irreverent, brash, cheeky- but above all entertaining. The Knebworth show is a crazy mix of singer concert, rock spectacle, lounge act, LasVegas and Moulin Rouge review- all rolled into one, but precisely orchestrated and superbly presented. The material, which I thought at first would be forgettable, has me now humming its melodies in my head all day long. Is he a pop star, contrived industry creation, MOR headliner?- who cares? He's the real deal- a first class entertainer who has this audience (all 100,000+ of them) right in the palm of his hand at every moment, thanks to his gifted voice and expert sense of timing. He is simply riveting. Deserved praise also goes to those who engineered the DVD: sound and camera shots are excellent, providing perhaps a better experience than the live audience enjoyed, certainly the best recording of a mega concert that I've ever witnessed. This is a package well worth viewing and one I guarantee you'll replay again and again. Like the man says, for full effect, do play it loud. As for Robbie Williams- I'll be lining up myself when this guy finally gets to the US!
"For the next 2 hours your ass is mine!!".......2004-02-17
I took a chance and bought the English version on a recent trip to London after hearing how popular he is in the UK - how often are the Brits wrong? All I can say is if you don't buy this DVD you are missing out on one of the best live concerts you will ever see in your life - and I was not familar with any of his songs - the lyrics (remember lyrics?) mostly about love and breakup written in tongue in cheek - everythng was flawless from Robbie's over the top stage presence - his interaction with the crowd - the lighting - the sets - the backup dancers - the band - the visuals - the 100,000 plus crowd was under his spell - he starts off by saying - "I'm Robbie Williams - for the next 2 hours your ass is mine!" If you can not play this DVD loud, then take it to a friend's house where you can crank up the volume - better yet if they have a plasma or HDTV!
I know others have asked - why is he not not big in the states? - maybe some day he might be - but for now, go discover him for yourself and spread the word - I'm lining up for tickets when he performs over here.
p.s. pick up his Live at the Albert - a different take on Robbie singing classic crooner (Sinatra)songs - which shows his versatility (Harry Connick Jr - please step aside) - this guy can do it all.............
