Amazon Front Row team asked the band what their favorite tracks from III were and here is what they said:
Gary - “Get Ready For It”
One of my favourites tracks on III is “Get Ready for It.” We wrote this track with Steve Robson. It's always a pleasure to work with him. “Shine”, “Said It All” and many others. He always starts the day with an instrumental so we can sing our melodies on top. From the outset it just sounded enormous! I always have a list of song titles in my lyric book and spotted “Get Ready For It”, the music and the sentiment were perfect.
We all then went about putting it together. It really didn't take long, like all the best songs. It's going to be amazing live, maybe even a show opener!
Mark - “If You Want It”
The full line is “If you want it, come and get it” and that's really what the song is all about. In my eyes it's about saying don’t wait for stuff to happen; have you lived your stories? Similar to the bucket lists people create.
I love what Stuart Price brought to this song, especially the accordion that’s on there being played in the background, I always get a picture of us stood on a street corner in Paris belting this one out. It's a fun song and the atmosphere behind it is supposed to be uplifting but at the same time just asking you the question…because you never know do you.
Howard - “Flaws”
“Flaws” is probably my favourite track on the album. Definitely in my top three. It's such a powerful song both lyrically and musically. The lyrics are so beautiful and vulnerable, “If you take me you take all my flaws”, it's so raw. It would would be easy to think the track just stays on one level with the piano part but suddenly this massive middle eight comes in, this huge chant that just knocks you out.
Like I have said, you are not famous here in America, like Robbie Williams. You both have fans here, I am one of them. I have been a loyal true fan of Robbie Williams for over 20 years now, Love this man, he is so amazing and so talented. Than I was introduced to your music with Rob and you guys alone without him in your group. I loved your video's, your music, dancing everything. I am so happy that all of you have broken your silence and now good friends again. All I ask is can you guys please do a concert here in America?? (California would be nice.) xx One gig, you and Robbie would break America, I know you would.. xx
