Melted my heart seeing uou and Robbie getting yourselves back together as friends, your both awesome people

[liselautenbacher]

SO powerful, these words: "I really needed to fail. Because it couldn't carry on in that way." I hope these words resonate with many people, or at least will over time.

He’s so honest about the huge part he played in take that and I’m glad as he was the music behind the band, but I sense zero arrogance about it. I’ve always liked Gary. What a legend

Time and reflection has made Gary even better. When we’re 20 we’re all a little bit ego filled and naturally as we grow older and actually live life and go through things, we change just a bit. He’s like a fine wine though Gary. He gets better with age.

articulate, honest and wise...it's sad that this perspective takes time and heartbreak to achieve...such is life.

[jaydeedaley]

Oh my goodness. I LOVE the way Gary talks: the way he shapes his words; it's so APPEALING.

What an amazing interview of Gary, thank you guys, this brings back 90s memories

[Pazuzu]

I have to say that Patience is one of the best pop songs that ive ever heard

[buzzychilled]

"In the twist of separation you excel in being free" , ,, was in the midst of britpop the best lyric line of its time

After watch robbie documentary I see things more clear. Love you Gary.

I’ve been a huge Robbie fan for many years. And TT also. Appreciate Gary’s talent and confidence. Totally disagree with people, who try to insult him on these terms - being confident is not bad especially when you’re supposed to be a worldwide famous musician. It’s one of the most important things in the business 🤷🏻‍♀️

After analyzing their stories I came to a conclusion, that Robbie’s only fault was being too emotional. He was just a kid back then. And he had no time to rest and look back on his mistakes. Of course he won the battle, he became 10 times more successful than Gary in commercial aspects, and he also is an iconic entertainer. Gary has always been a talented songwriter, but not good in promoting himself. His attitude isn’t that ‘rockstarish’ in general.

But what do we have in common? Both went through it all and became closer to each other, because they matured. I’m happy about that. Hope guys will make some more collaborations soon - their voices sound brilliant together ❤

IN THE DOCUMENTARY THAT ROBBIE MADE FOR NETFLIX, HE SAYS THAT FOR A LONG TIME HE FELT JEALOUSY FOR GARY, THAT HE DID NOT KNOW WHY HE DID IT BUT IT WAS SOMETHING FRUSTRATING, AND THAT HE FELT BAD BECAUSE OF HOW IDIOT HE WAS AGAINST GARY, IT IS GOOD TO KNOW THAT PEOPLE HEAL THEIR HEARTS, AND THAT NOW EVERYONE IS WELL WITH EACH OTHER....

[CalopsitaVanderbilt]

Gary was always my favorite, a true piano entertainer

[Taoteh]

He was always my fav in TT. He is always so humble. What a lovely and charming man. As we say in Spain: Que Dios bendiga a él y todos sus familiares y amigos. Y por extensión al resto de miembros del grupo.

In their time, I was a late teenager at college. We hated Take That. We were into Oasis, GNR, Pantera, The Doors, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, etc. we had a reunion a few years ago. What did we listen to over a few beers? ‘The Flood’. It’s a banger. 😂

[MyHandle]

Happy that Gary had his redemption arc and is now where he deserves to be.

[Cloud.]

Respect to Gary, seems very authentic, reflective and humble

[HettiedeKorteDiplomaat]

I guess fame is like an addiction. Your development is stunned. You don’t grow personally. You’d think fame is great but in reality it’s a prison. A luxurious prison but so empty. You miss out on life. You live a parallel life. Like Hollywood stars. Totally detached from the real world.

[radhaor]

Such a wholesome, grounded, humble guy 👏

[richarddawson]

Gary, you were the brains and still are . Don’t beat yourself up mate
