Those who see sexual tension between them don't know these guys have a huge history together: they were childhood friends, grew up together as members of a super successful boy band, then their egos clashed, friendships were broken and both went their separate way. Now that they're older and more mature they can reconcile their differences. Awwwwww! I love this bromance!
Being a real man is not about being flawless, being a real man is about having balls to face your own flaws and apologize. Both of these dudes have grown into real men that way
LMFAO, have you never heard of John Lennon and Paul McCartney??? I like the way they harmonize (Gary and Robbie), they’re good, very good, but NOT THE BEST. I can list a bunch who are WAY BETTER: Lennon & McCartney, Tommy Shaw & Jack Blades, Daryl Hall & John Oates, The Everly Brothers, Bee Gees, pretty much all of the old Motown acts. I’m not dissing these 2, I actually quite enjoy them and Take That (my little brother was the one who got me into Take That, I’d never even heard of them until 2 years ago). But to claim they’re THE BEST is just nonsense. Lennon & McCartney are THE BEST, their voices just move through each other so perfectly. Hall & Oates and Shaw & Blades are tied for 2nd. Of course, all of this is just opinions, yours, mine, everyone.
It's a proper bromance - there's a lot of history between these two.. Good to see that old quarrels can be left behind with age and wisdom. It's a shame many others who's lost friends along the way don't find their way back to each other with time.
Like I always say, the more history you have with someone, the more you'll regret losing them. When you've known someone for years it can't even compare to new people in your life :)
It's so nice that after growing and learning from their mistakes/misunderstandings...Robbie made peace with Gary, Mark, Howard and Jason. They (especially Robbie) were so young and manipulated by music industry people. A lot of problems and they early break up could have been prevented with better guidance. I'm really happy that they found each other again and made very good music. Even with the 3 of them, Howard, Mark and Gary are still one of the best bands ever!
this song is all about broken friendship that has been fixed and reminiscing the trouble they've caused because of their misunderstandings in the past. its good seeing these two brought back the good friendship they had before.
This is a great video. I take my hat off to these two for being man enough to not take themselves so seriously. The Brokeback Mountain references are clearly a parody but they surprisingly play it genuinely. Close friendship mixed in with homoeroticism. There's definitely a strong bond if nothing else and they did an exemplary job in conveying the sorrow and regret of past grievances. A very clever video.
It is the story of Gary and Robin, the way they went their separate ways when both were struggling and not able to vocalise it ..and finally reunited years later as grownups and mature enough to say they’ve missed each other.
Finally reconnected with my high school best friend after an entire decade this year. We were foolish back then and fought for the dumbest reason- over the attention of a girl and who was better than who. We laughed it off over how young and dumb we used to be. We just couldn't find other friends like each other all these years. We thought of reconnecting multiple times before but ego got in the way. He sent me this song last night and it's spot on!
If John Lennon hadn't died in 1980, I reckon him and Paul would have eventually made a duet and the song and video would have been similar to this LOL.All jokes and comparisons aside, Robbie and Gary burying the hatchet and reconciling with this tender uplifting song is great. Something that every Take That fan, both male and female, wept tears of joy over
Tbh from the documentary I saw of take that, and just how he is as a person Gary instigated this whole reconciliation with Robbie, Robbie pretty much bullied Gary. When Robbie was going to rejoin take that everyone in the band where against it but Gary and mark, Robbie was always respectful to mark, it wasn’t some big positive trait of mark. Robbie was the harshest to gary, gary publicly admitted his faults that he wanted to be a solo singer and didn’t give the band a chance to do solo shit or lead in music. But once Gary gave them the floor… Frankly, any take that song that’s not for Barlow is shite. Robbie flopped because he lost his Song writer and robbie had a resurgence because Gary wrote songs for him. He was always the talent and the other members just relied on mediocre singing and Gary’s talent.
Everybody interpret as they wish ;) for me its a song about friendship....Friends who argued, then got mature and realized it was stupid... . finally reconcile;)and are more mature friends;)
Can't believe it's been ten years since the release of this song. They both look amazing still. So glad they were able to settle their differences. They were all so young in Take That, Robbie especially, and it's wonderful to see how they've grown into men who love their families and are successful.
What a perfect song A great story about two men that held an expired grudge they'd been carrying around for too long Great arrangement and lyrics And also some humour to put the icing on the cake
Definitely one of Robbie's best videos of all time and one of his best in years!!! LOVED IT! Robbie Forever!!! PS. In an alternate universe, if Robbie and Gary got together they would make a very good-looking couple lol!
Eeeehhh Jason was an ok dancer in his 20’s. Gary literally wrote all of take that’s hits and this song too. And wrote candy sung by Robbie. Robbie had a unique voice, granted, but so does Gary. Objectively Gary was the most talented member of take that, he is just not great at dancing and was chubby in the 90’s. Was never ugly like the media made out, Gary was never unattractive fuck- even when he was chubby. Gary’s only fault is that he’s a Tory 😂
isn't this the sweetest thing you've seen in years? one thing that seems to not be allowed, is the sweetness and brotherhood between men, who always stay tough and rough...but there is sweetness abd care between friends, and it's beautiful to express it, it doesn't take away an inch of what a man is, instead it makes him complete and confindent
One of the most beautiful songs everrr. I love the story behind it. They fought over whatever it was, were at odds with each other for years and then finally worked it out. LOVE IT 😭
❤️❤️😊 this song always makes me smile. Me and my Sister had a big falling out once an I sent her this, that’s all it took to sort us back out again. Now it always reminds us of one another, not fell out since 🤣🥰❤️
This song just purely reminds me of being 12 years old and my dad taking me to a sweet little cafe for lunch and on an autumn day, with the leaves blowing outside and having a hot chocolate together🍂 brings me right back to that moment and it’s so cozy 🥹
The story behind this song is just so heartbreaking yet so important to the meaning of this song. Can’t express myself about how time passes. Beautiful song, beautifully video, beautiful story, beautiful them.
What a beautiful journey of one friendship! They´ve been through a lot, so glad they found their way back to each other! They both seem really happy now!
absolutely fantastic song written by 2 absolute greats. absolutely fantastic video. i love how their friendship is so strong and has been healed. they say their 3 stories, mine, yours and the truth. that suggests that they were both wrong and are compromising. its so incredible. love to all x
It's like they keep on teasing and teasing but at the end they don't jump into that love they feel for each other, this needed a second part with another song. Love these two 😍
This was just a joke, both are very straight (and married) and did this because of all the gay rumors. And because they made up since their boy band days. I can't believe people still think they are sending gay signals. Get over it, not all good looking guys are gay!
The bromance is seen here. They do sound incredible singing together. Maybe Robbie can stand in on tour next year in 2024, if Olly gets ill? Either that or make a guest appearance. Either way, win-win! ❤
This video is really funny. I'm so glad they are pals now cos TT were a great band - still are even though it's only Gazza, Howard and Mark right now, I hope they are still pals.
I've just found out about their relationship through the years and I'm so glad they are good friends now, if you listen to the lyrics it's easy to see what this song means to them
Lovely song 😊. It's true what they sing about. Life is too short to hate each other. In hindsight, it was only a matter of time before the two reconciled, because although Robbie hated Gary as a person after he left Take That, he still largely acknowledged his songwriting abilities. I think that's only fair, because I dare say Robbie owes Gary part of his career, because it was mostly Barlow's songs that took the band to the top. Who knows if Robbie would have made it as a solo artist right off the bat. Sure, Take That were hyped in the 90s, but at the end of the day, they're still relevant and can fill stadiums, and that only happens when you have songs that people still want to hear.
Just a song of two singers who went their separate ways because their was very bad blood between the two. It really is a shame, so many years thrown away because of ego's got in the way. Gorgeous song
I made a comment a year ago about both of these guys and wondering why they aren't bigger here in the U.S. Well, now Robbie has a Netflix special and I've actually seen a lot more of Gary too. Americans (and I believe most people) love a good comeback story. I think that if the members of Take That (Gary) and Robbie were to do a U.S. tour where Take That could do their songs and Robbie could do his songs, and they could even sing together on some songs (Back for Good), I think it could be a massive success. I've said it before, both of these guys are brilliant and I know that I would pay to go to their concert. I wonder if it has been brought up to either of them. If anybody knows anything about if that is in the works or not, please comment. Cheers.
hey, I've been a huge Take That fans and Robbie, Gary, Mark solo works for the last five years. And like most of new-ish non UK based Take That fans that I know, we wish they would get bigger beyond their comfort zone in UK and Europe. In the past, they never seem to get the right timing to break through the US. Take That as a whole was already thinking of disbanding when offers from the US started to come in the 90s and then when they got big again in mid 2000s, they seemed to hesitant in trying to break to the US so they declined all offers, personal trauma maybe. Robbie basically stopped promoting his works properly in the US in early 2000s just so he could use the country as his safe space from cruel british media. Gary blew the opportunity and never regain it. Mark never even stood a chance. From what I gather, especially between Gary and Robbie and maybe between Robbie and Mark as well, they have written some songs in the last few years but there has been no news about it so far. Take That has another album coming up with just 3 of them, their third album as "TT3". Robbie obviously with the new documentary that we know already but he also gonna release a biopic movie next year. Speaking about shows in the US, Robbie had done Vegas residency before covid, it went well and could have gone longer if only the pandemic didn't happen. Take That also has plan to do residency but right now they have upcoming tour for their new album scheduled next year in the UK and around Europe, so it's not gonna happen anytime soon. Your description in how they should do the live show is exactly how they did it with Progress tour in 2011. 5 songs from TT4, 5 songs from Robbie's, and 12 songs from the 90s and from Progress. But honestly, I can't imagine how are they gonna do it if next time they are reunited again. Right now we can only assume Jason Orange will never return and then what should they do with four of them except Jason? They can't treat it the way they did with Progress. Take That also has experience without Robbie longer than they are with him. They have unique and tricky situation and they only reveal only tiny fractions of it. Ngl, I wish they could sort it out when the time comes. But it seems they need a lot of figuring out.
Just now in 2020 I am paying attention to the lyrics... + this video, the relationship btw Gary & Robbie is so sweet! A real bromance unlike those fake fanservices in other boybands...
I think it's true or not, they are both talented, write beautiful songs, and have fantastic voices. And the most important thing is to enjoy more than one song. What they feel about each other, maybe they do not even know ...
Could not agree more... Maybe they do not even know: once Gary said I' m not like that but I should have tried. I don't know why I thought he was talking about Robbie and him. Maybe I made the whole story Up on my mind...
i still love this no regret no grudges no hate no stigma just acceptance and forgiveness very powerful message shown here. lets try unite be more understanding be more open minded we are unique because we are so different but the common purpose should be peace and love look after each other in the end it is all we have.
My father and my uncle just buried the hatchet a few months ago after not talking to each other for over 7 years the very second i heard the news, this song popped into my head
I didn't know they were friends again!!!! I'm 12 years late. Lol 😂 I'm in the U. S. 🫣 Well, it's lovely to hear their voices harmonizing and see them friendship restored! I loved Take That!
I see the song as two lifelong friends, who had a feud over something stupid, apologizing & talking through how immature they were & rekindling their friendship.
I don't know anything about this song, but it sounds like it's a healing song between these two guys during Robbie's split from the TAKE THAT band. There was a bit of tension between these two guys for years.
If you think this has something to do with being gay, you clearly know nothing about the way that Take That split up and the angry words that were "exchanged" between Gary and Robbie at the time and for some years after. Crikey, do your research before thinking everything has to do with sex. !!!!!
Lolz, im so embarrassed for you. The song is about all that. The video is blatantly a story of 2 guys repressing their love for eachother. Don't worry, its just for the video, so calm down. And yes, you posted this 2 years ago, but i'm here now :)
