Robbie Williams & Gary Barlow (Like I never loved you at all - I'd wait 4 life - the circus)

As Rob said, Gary's lyrics are as autobiographical and meaningful as his. (some of) the sad songs Rob loves so much... here they are.

(*) Max Beesley knows Rob since ages; he was at Kn. with Rob and he lived in Rob's home in LA for more than one year. He's clearly the recipient of the song "big beef" and, in my opinion, also the recipient of the song "The Actor":

First you can't act, now you can't stop,
(What's my motivation?)
I USED TO LIKE YOU... A LOT,
(I was the class nerd)
Exactly who I'm s'posed to be,
(I'm totally Strasberg)
YOU PLAY A DOCTOR TV [Max Beesley is best known as the star of the BBC Three medical drama Bodies, which broadcast from 2004-07]

Deep down you're dirty but you try,
(I'm a good person)
The truth would break you so you lie,
(I want my work to matter)
It's in the choices that you make,
(I want to inspire)
No talent, just fate.

I DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU BEGIN,
I END, WE START
(...)

Good from far but far from good,
(All I have is my instinct)
You love to act, I wish you would,
(It's not acting, it's re-acting)
Act like you're not from out of space,
(When I'm on stage I feel alive)
You know ambition isn't grace,
(For me it's the craft)

YOU ARE THE ALPHA MALE,
(I'm just too pretty for that role)
You are the good, you are the great,
(The words have power)
Now let me fill you with my hate.
(...)

Notice that after "Back for good" was realized, Rob left. Gary started his solo career in the car of "Open road", leaving the car for his new professional and personal path...in "I'd wait for life, he's back alone in the car, regretting the path he's chosen.

The songs included in the vid are "Like I never loved you at all"; "I'd wait for life"; "The Circus". The version of "The Circus" included is the Abbey Road live one (for ex: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=529DGd8hGfQ - credit to the owner) you notice, in particular, he sang "the more WE shout the more WE hesitate, now that you're gone", making pretty clear who's the recipient of the song.
Both of them are used to play tricks like that, since they know people don't get it usually. They've always acted like that, since 1993 up to nowadays. They did the same a thousand times on Progress tour. Last time I remember, it was on RAH (december 2011). Gary's always been used to sing the lyrics of Forever love without any change...in tour and at home... alone in his family's presence..but not this time.
The 1st night Gary slightly changed the lyrics of "Forever love". Notice that Rob has just left the UK to return to LA. Then you understand why Gary changed the lyrics: the original lyrics say "... my love it HAD so many empty spaces" but he sang "my love it HAS so many empty spaces", instead of "had". Here you see (credit to whoever is the owner of this vid): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dUNxKBuqso . The following night he sang the original line (since his family was there?). Here you see (credit to whoever owns this vid): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuaI3W7pNDk

I apologize for the uploading errors (some of the "transitions" I added to the vid while I was making it went lost in uploading..I don't know why).
