![]() ![]() British singer-songwriter Laura Critchley commented that she had sung vocals for three songs, and said that the LP would not be released until 2009. ![]() Rumours of a new studio album co-written with Chambers had surfaced in early 2007, along with known commitments required by Williams to complete his EMI contract. However, the British singer confirmed in August 2009 on his official website that the entire album was produced by Trevor Horn, and added that it was recorded in London. In that period, he worked with many producers, including Guy Chambers, Soul Mekanik, Mark Ronson, and Trevor Horn (who, ironically, was in The Buggles, famous for the hit Video Killed the Radio Star). Reality Killed the Video Star was Williams' first studio album in three years. Despite this, it was and still is Williams' first and only studio album not to reach number one on the UK Albums Chart, beaten to the top spot by a margin of less than 1% by JLS's self-titled debut album. The album has been certified platinum in Europe for sales of over one million copies, including 900,000 copies sold in the UK alone. Other single releases include " You Know Me" and " Morning Sun". The album was preceded by lead single " Bodies" released in October 2009. Reality Killed the Video Star was viewed by critics and fans as being Williams' "comeback album" after the relative failure of his 2006 release, Rudebox. It incorporates elements of pop rock, dance-rock, alternative rock and adult contemporary music. ![]() It debuted in the top ten of 22 national album charts worldwide, and has received varying reviews from music critics. The album was produced by Trevor Horn and recorded between September 2008 and August 2009 in London and Los Angeles. Reality Killed the Video Star is the eighth solo studio album by English singer-songwriter Robbie Williams, released in November 2009. ![]()
