Robbie Williams Tops Chart in U.K. and Australia

By Tim Cashmere
Tue, 31 Oct 2006 04:00:39 +1100

Robbie Williams has topped the U.K. chart once again, shocking the critics who had said his career had peaked and he was on his way out.

'Rudebox', Robbie's fifth solo album since being fired from boy band Take That, is a change from his straightforward pop career that had seen him slip from glory.

Instead it's a hip hop, dubstep, urban, garage, everything "street" inspired change for Williams, helped along by producers such as Mark Ronson, William Orbit, Soul Mekanik and more.

In Australia, Williams' 'Swing When You're Winning' has shot back up the charts to number 31.

Other debuts this week include Meat Loaf, P. Diddy and Jerry Lee Lewis.
