THE REVIEW
Take a British group that never, from the beginning, worried about releasing a single.
Everything Changes, or as they had already philosophized with their debut album, Everything Changes.
At this point, they were giant superstars in Europe, and the question in their minds wasn't whether they could achieve a successful single, but how many and which hits would reach number one.
The self-titled album generated six successful singles, four of which made it to number one on the charts, making Everything Changes one of the best-selling albums of the decade, announcing them as the biggest male group since the Beatles. When the advertising campaign leads into the so-called jet set, it is difficult to distinguish the media value of the album from the material itself.
It's a dance-pop album with splendid ballads sung by five young men, with resonance superior to most boy band albums, thanks to the superlative writing of singer Gary Barlow.
Boy bands have always had their share of skeptics against them, and always those to break down are seen as a competition with their "struggle" to please the fan base they already have.
With their "sassy" dance tracks like "Relight My Fire" (an old Dan Hartman hit from the '70s) and quality ballads like "Pray" and "Love Ain't Here Anymore," as well as pop tracks "Everything Changes" and "Whatever You Do to Me," Take That surpass all their competitors. What they have gained in return is the (reaffirmed) reputation of being a group like few others with true talent.

Music should, first of all, stir emotions, and today I am here not to talk to you about a group that has revolutionized the history of music of all time, but about 5 people who brought a breath of fresh air (or created a many-headed monster, depending on opinions) in the international scene.
Now, for me, the TT are this: they remind me that I am no longer 14... But sometimes I still think I'd like to go back to being a child, with their posters as wallpaper from skirting board to ceiling.
