Take That's Robbie Williams & Gary Barlow Visit Brokeback Mountain in New Duet

Former Take That bandmates Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow have recorded a duet together. The song, entitled Shame, appears on Williams' new greatest hits album, In and Out of Consciousness, and is accompanied by a video in which the two men commemorate cowboy film, Brokeback Mountain.

The pair are shown in the video drinking in a saloon, singing to each other. Later, they are shown fishing, and after eyeing each other up, "coyly" remove their tops.

The single wii be released on October 4th.

Robbie Williams to Reunite with Take That & Film "Brokeback Mountain"-themed Video

Fifteen years after walking away for solo stardom (in Europe? Big success! Stateside, not so much), Robbie Williams will return to Take That, the chart-topping boy band he joined at age 16.

According to London’s The Sun, the reunited fivesome will release a new album at Christmas before heading out for a major stadium tour in the summer of 2011. But first, Williams and longtime bandmate/rival Gary Barlow will release a promo video for the new single “Shame,” due in October, with a tongue-in-cheek tribute to the 2005 ranch-hands-in-love epic Brokeback Mountain.

An insider tells The Sun: “In the song there’s a line about how he went into Toys R Us and saw the four Take That dolls in a box and realized he felt left out …Everything is in place now to formally announce Robbie’s return to Take That for one year only. He will announce his comeback with a public statement. Then he’ll release ‘Shame’ with Gary.”

Robbie Williams is Moving Back to the US

Robbie Williams doesn't care that he's probably going to take a $1.6 million loss on his mansion in England, he just wants to get back to sunny Los Angeles. After just 8 months in the UK, the "Bodies" singer and his girlfriend Ayda Field, who bought the 18th century Wiltshire house for $14 million earlier this year, are heading back to the states -- stat.

An insider said: "Robbie is desperate to get things moving quickly rather than hang around just to get a bit more money. Being settled back in the States quickly with Ayda is more important to him. He's already got a few people interested in the mansion."

The 35-year-old star has previously admitted the house, which has its own helicopter hanger, temples and fountains, was an "impulse buy" when he returned to England after 5 years in the US. He and Ayda were planning to make it their family home, but quickly became fed up with the rainy weather.

He recently said: "Ayda's always wanted to have the change in the seasons, and it's winter and glorious. The garden is pretty special, a winter wonderland and you just want to get cozy. Then it comes to summer and the weather doesn't change that much. Then you think, 'Hmm, LA was good.' Every day you wake up you're in the sun. Your body feels different, your mind feels different -- so we're going back."

Although Robbie would like to keep the house, he has admitted he can't afford to maintain it if he's not living there. He said: "I can't really afford to keep it. Maintenance is a lot. I've done a few impulse buys and it leaves you no money."

Robbie Williams Says Death Knocked at His Door

Robbie Williams’ addiction to prescription drugs was so bad that he checked himself into rehab on his 33rd birthday, back in February 2007. The singer said he was "physically and mentally ill" after years of abusing anti-depressants and painkillers. He spent almost a month at the Meadows treatment center in Arizona.

Robbie said: "It was damn serious. Robbie Williams does not go into rehab just if his life gets a bit out of control. It was damn serious. Death had to knock on my door to help me with my decision. The former Take That star, who was smoking 60 cigarettes a day and downing 36 shots of espresso coffee when he went into rehab, admits he constantly lives in fear of a relapse but refuses to let it ruin his life."

He told Germany’s Stern magazine: "I have a self-destructive character but does this hold me back from being happy? No."

One of his reasons for the troubled singer’s new-found happiness is girlfriend Ayda Field, who has helped the 35-year-old singer turn his life around. He said: "A friend said, ‘Robbie, I know a woman who would be perfect for you,’ and he was right. She didn’t try to change me and just like that, she changed me for the better."

"I am a very happy man at the moment. I’m now in love with someone who returns this love as strongly as I love her. I’ve never experienced that before. That’s what makes me so careful in this relationship, because I don’t want to hurt Ayda."

Robbie and Ayda, 30, have been dating for 2 years and recently moved back to the singer’s native UK home from Los Angeles in time for his release of his new album Reality Killed The Video Star.

Robbie Williams Gets New Image for Comeback

The former Take That star has announced he is to release his eighth studio album after nearly three years in the wilderness.

He has been keeping a low profile in LA for the past couple of years, where he has been sporting a beard and pursuing his interest in UFOs.

Quite a difference from the suave looking Robbie looking pensively back at us in the promotional shot for his new album, which is entitled "Reality Killed the Video Star.} He wears a black suit and tie with his tattooed arms covered up.

The singer will be hoping to make a successful comeback following his critically panned 2006 album "Rudebox."

While he has been taking a break from music his former Take That band mates have enjoyed a hugely successful comeback.

Williams has been working on his new album with Trevor Horn, the legendary producer, who in his younger days was one half of electro-pop duo The Buggles. They wrote and recorded the number one hit Video Killed The Radio Star - which was the inspiration for the title of Williams' new album.

Since leaving Take That in 1996, Williams has had much success as a solo artist with six number one singles. Every album he had released in the UK - including Rudebox - have reached number one in the charts and he has sold a total of 55 million records around the world.

His new single Bodies will be released on October 12th while the album Reality Killed the Video Star will hit shops on November 9th.

Robbie Williams is ready to rejoin Take That.

Robbie Williams is ready to rejoin Take That.

The Feel hitmaker, who left the band almost 14-years-ago, says he has healed his bitter rift with Gary Barlow and is adamant his old pals want him back.

He tells Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper, "I'm in regular contact with them and it's looking more likely by the week. The lads all seem up for it. I think it would be fun.

"Let's see what happens, but my head’s in the right place, so the timing could be right if Gary calls. I think it would be fun. It would be good.

"The lads seem up for it and some people think it's a done deal."

"It would make sense for it to happen some time over the next year," he added. "We've matured now. We'd have a laugh."
