Is it just me or is this guy (or the person who writes his songs) copying lots of melodies and tunes from other artists.
The two most clear examples of this are Supreme and Sexed Up.
Supreme has many parts that sound very close to Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive and Sexed Up has a part that sounds exactly like Jon Bon Jovi's Janie Don't You Take Your Love To Town.
In my opinion Robbie is just a "copy cat" who is copying everything from the latest decades. Parts of his stage performance are similar to Freddie Mercury's, parts are to Frank Sinatras. His songs "borrow" lots from older songs.

Wow, another "highly intelligent" Robbie bashing thread appears to be popping up from the usual suspects....

PS. the term is sampling, remember this gay group Queen
who stole Chic's 'Good Times' to create their hit single
"Another Fan Is A Stepford...."

Give me a break, he paid Gaynor lots of money in order to use that sample.
Don't let the facts confuse you...

His songs are good, but his voice is just as annoying as he is himself.

I have to admit he has a kind of a good voice, but he's a prick and most of his songs are crap.

I'm not a fan myself, but at least puts on a bit of a show. Put it this way, I'd rather go and watch his show than Sting's.
Mind you, I'd rather pop my head in a bucket of shit than watch Sting.
