Amazon.co.uk Review
It's been a long ten years since Take That disbanded. Their recent reformation and world tour offered overwhelming evidence that, far from being forgotten, the post-Robbie quartet can still command hysterical amounts of goodwill and adoration. Beautiful World illustrates why this is so. Written in conjunction with songwriter/producer John Shanks (Ashlee Simpson, Anastacia, Alanis Morissette), the album is crammed full with the songwriting magic that made their rise to fame so meteoric in the first place. Far from being an exercise in nostalgia, the project moves the band in a slightly new direction. The four come across as more mature, more democratic (all members share songwriting credits on the album, rather than just Barlow), and even more adept at making epic pop that somehow avoids the cheese factor. Lead single "Patience" is a perfect example of how powerful and accessible their songs can be. It'd be a good contender for the album's peak moment if the rest of the tracks weren't so damn good too. With traditional Take That style songs (the immediately likeable "Reach Out", the brimming "Like I Never Loved You At All"), nicely punctuated up by incongruous outings like Jason Orange's folkish "Wooden Boat" and Mark's upbeat, Beatles-esque "Shine", Beautiful World sets a whole new standard for a band previously known more for their singles than their long-players.--Danny McKenna

 Simply the best May 24, 2008
Just how did they decide which song should be a single. With perhaps the exception of Wooden Boat, all of these songs could have been a single. All the lads take a turn at singing lead and all take credit for the combined work. A truly incredible feat, for the best selling band in the country to take 10 years off, not only come back but come back better. If this is a refection of what we are to expect in the future I can't wait for the next album
Believe the hype - this is an amazing album May 17, 2008
I didn't have a huge amount of time for Take That + Robbie, I thought they were ok, fair to middling, with some good pop songs under their belt. Then they disbandded and Gary was able to concentrate on writing and producing music, and kept popping up with some incredible songs performed by other people, his craft was honed to perfection away from the limelight.
I brought Beautiful World as one of the girls at work said that it wasn't like their earlier stuff, it was a lot more mellow and I would enjoy it. She was not wrong, I always have this on my iPod or the stereo, easily listening to it 2 or 3 times a week, still over a year since I brought it.
The songs are pitch perfect with them all sharing out the vocals so the songs sound the best, not to ensure they all get a go, the album has some slick production, but the simplest and most effective song which can move me to tears even now is Wooden Boat, which is just Jason and his guitar - beautiful.
I cannot urge you enough to buy this album, if you are interested in an exercise of song writing craft, and to measure the depth of their talent, then turn to this CD and like me just dance along to the older stuff at weddings!
An extremely Beautiful Journey! March 21, 2008
This album is fantastic, from start to end is like a journey,and believe me, one of the best journes you can have, every song is magical and different but somehow they all fit together perfectly!
A MUST and the DVD...AMAZING! The interview is just brilliant and its great fun!
Classic January 14, 2008

Just having listened to this album, which i nearly played to death after it was released over a year ago, I feel compelled to make a comment. Better late than ever :)
It sounds as good as it did then, in fact possibly even better. Rarely have my heartstrings been pulled like this and I have a feeling that "Beautiful World" will be remembered as on of the classic albums of its era.
Bless you, boys................
An excellent comeback January 4, 2008
Beautiful World by Take That receives a welcome comeback for the band. Take That as a band flourished during the 90's. Take That continues to capitalise on their enomorous success of the 90's with the much awaited launch of their new album in today's digital age. Album's material would appeal to the mature audience. It may not be suited to the young generation of their pop-orientated days. It heads a new direction. Take That have truly adapted to modern trends. The band cements a position in the British music industry, but not share the same scale of leading legendary British groups. Without any doubts the band gain huge recognition for their musical achievements.
The album comprises eleven beautifully composed tracks, that are well written and splendid music to listen to. These include top ten hits Patient, Reach out and Beautiful World. Take That are without any doubts a superb band. The band deliver a solid understanding of real music and this is truly reflected by their music in the album, The album demonstrates certain qualities that are a necessity in real music. These include pure elegance and music to make you feel good.
Beautiful World by Take That welcomes a band who were big in the 90's and continue display the much missed talents for 10 years, with wonderful musicianship, perfect vocal singing and perfectly composed music. This is what music should be about.
