I started liking them as<br \/>\n\u00a0 they released the black and white video where all guys were tied up to these<br \/>\n\u00a0 chairs and got pushed into the lake. I think that was their last before the<br \/>\n\u00a0 break. Now, as they released \u201cPatience\u201d I guess you could say they<br \/>\n\u00a0 got me completely.<!--more-->\u00a0\u00a0 I so had to get the album and I would have even gone<br \/>\n  to their show if I didn\u2019t have to go to another gig that night. I listened to that<br \/>\n\u00a0 album a thousand times and sang along all the time. Such a pity that I didn\u2019t<br \/>\n\u00a0 catch them live&#8230; Many people told me it must have been a blast and just amazing.<br \/>\n\u00a0 But now I have gotten the DVD \u201cBeautiful World Live\u201d recorded at The<br \/>\n\u00a0 O2 in London in front of more than \u00bd a million people. Holding the DVD<br \/>\n\u00a0 in hands, you can\u2019t imagine how happy and excited I was to watch it\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 I don\u2019t think I have to tell you anything about the band itself, do I?<br \/>\n\u00a0 No, ok. So I go straight to the DVD review part:<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 The DVD contains two discs, one with the show on it and one with the extras<br \/>\n\u00a0 on it. I watched the show one first. But one after another!<br \/>\n\u00a0 First of all I of course explored the whole DVD, meaning taking a closer look<br \/>\n\u00a0 at it, especially the booklet: The Take That logo on the front, playlist on<br \/>\n\u00a0 the back \u2013 how average and boring, right? But now open it! It is folded<br \/>\n\u00a0 in the way, that when you unfold it the first time you can see the silhouettes<br \/>\n\u00a0 of each band member filled with a night sky including shining stars, a statement<br \/>\n\u00a0 of each one about the tour and comeback underneath each silhouette and the writing<br \/>\n\u00a0 \u201cTake That Beautiful World Live\u201d right across it. Unfold it the next<br \/>\n\u00a0 time: you see close-ups of each member with a little moon or the earth (can\u2019t<br \/>\n\u00a0 quite identify it) in the middle. Unfolding it the next and last time you can<br \/>\n\u00a0 see many concert pictures, the playlist again and underneath each title there<br \/>\n\u00a0 are a couple lines about the song, tour or show impression or something alike<br \/>\n\u00a0 by one of the guys. The inside of the DVD is not as spectacular as the booklet<br \/>\n\u00a0 in my opinion, so I\u2019m not going to go into that much further. And besides<br \/>\n\u00a0 that I have already written that much without even having started with the actual<br \/>\n\u00a0 material on the DVDs.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 As I said, the first disc contains the complete live show in London. It starts<br \/>\n\u00a0 out with an opera singer and a visual journey through the story of Take That,<br \/>\n\u00a0 then you can see the four guys behind presidents podiums performing \u201cReach<br \/>\n\u00a0 Out\u201d. I could tell you something about each and every song they play and<br \/>\n\u00a0 everything else that happens during the show, but then the magic would be gone.<br \/>\n\u00a0 It\u2019s like telling the end of a movie in advance. But let me tell you that<br \/>\n\u00a0 much: They have put very much effort into the show, the preparations of it,<br \/>\n\u00a0 the effects and simply everything. It is an amazing show which is comparable<br \/>\n\u00a0 with a good musical or a theater. They have many dancers and play old songs<br \/>\n\u00a0 as well. Take That use two stages, one of them is built up in the middle of<br \/>\n\u00a0 the venue surrounded by the audience. They have pyrotechnics and lots of light,<br \/>\n\u00a0 as well as some other special stuff and even special guests. Many different<br \/>\n\u00a0 styles are combined in the show: classic, dancers, disco, acoustic, storytelling,<br \/>\n\u00a0 even a solo of Jason performing \u201cWooden Boat\u201d all by himself in the<br \/>\n\u00a0 stage. The guys talk a lot with the audience and play with them as well. The<br \/>\n\u00a0 show also includes some old songs and Take That check if their audience still<br \/>\n\u00a0 knows all the old songs by heart, and they do! There is a different concept<br \/>\n\u00a0 for each song, each one more amazing than the other one. An amazing show, made<br \/>\n\u00a0 me jealous that I couldn\u2019t have been there, but hey, I have it on DVD now!<br \/>\n\u00a0 I would love to watch that DVD (the live show) in a movie theater with its big<br \/>\n\u00a0 screen and the Dolby Surround sound. Or I just catch them live next time. But<br \/>\n\u00a0 I am definitely amazed by it and deeply touched. Simply amazing show, it totally<br \/>\n\u00a0 got me.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 The second disc contains behind the scenes material, a sort of tour diary where<br \/>\n\u00a0 they boys talk about Howard\u2019s injury during the tour and what Howard did<br \/>\n\u00a0 during the shows he couldn\u2019t be on stage performing with the others, the<br \/>\n\u00a0 21 trucks that hold their show equipment, introduces you to all the featured<br \/>\n\u00a0 artists such as the dancers, the guest vocalist, the musicians, the manager<br \/>\n\u00a0 and everybody else who is touring with Take That. Further you can see all the<br \/>\n\u00a0 preparations that had to be made for the show including some dance practice<br \/>\n\u00a0 and many other behind the scenes and backstage impressions. The band commentary<br \/>\n\u00a0 is &#8211; as the name says &#8211; comments of the band about each part of the show. The<br \/>\n\u00a0 photo gallery shows pictures from onstage and backstage happenings, as well<br \/>\n\u00a0 as pictures of the happenings at the backstage and preparation, rehearsals and<br \/>\n\u00a0 practices and so on. This disc also shows you that the guys are still very down<br \/>\n\u00a0 to earth.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 I hope this review gave you an idea of the DVD, a quick yet sufficient peak<br \/>\n\u00a0 into the \u201cBeautiful World\u201d of Take That. And maybe you will be just<br \/>\n\u00a0 as amazed by Take That as I was, even though you haven\u2019t been a fan before\u2026<\/p>\n<table>\n<tr>\n<td><img decoding=\"async\" hight=\"200\" width=\"200\" src=\"http:\/\/ecx.images-amazon.com\/images\/I\/41d8WeDbe4L._SS400_.jpg\" \/>\n<\/td>\n<td><strong>Disc 1 &#8211; Tour <\/strong><br \/>\n\u00a0 Overture<br \/>\n\u00a0 Reach Out<br \/>\n\u00a0 It Only Takes A Minute<br \/>\n\u00a0 Beautiful World<br \/>\n\u00a0 Patience<br \/>\n\u00a0 Hold On<br \/>\n\u00a0 I&#8217;d Wait For life<br \/>\n\u00a0 Relight my Fire<br \/>\n\u00a0 Rule The World<br \/>\n\u00a0 Could It Be Magic<br \/>\n\u00a0 Back For Good<br \/>\n\u00a0 Everything Changes<br \/>\n\u00a0 Wooden Boat<br \/>\n\u00a0 Give Good Feeling<br \/>\n\u00a0 Sure<br \/>\n\u00a0 Never Forget<br \/>\n\u00a0 Shine<br \/>\n\u00a0 Pray<strong>Disc 2 &#8211; Extras <\/strong><br \/>\n\u00a0 The Journey &#8211; Exclusive On The Road Film<br \/>\n\u00a0 Band Commentary &#8211; Filmed commentary of the band talking through the live<br \/>\n\u00a0 show and its preparation.<br \/>\n\u00a0 Photo Gallery<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Links:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Take That Official<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Release date: 29-02-2008, Label: Universal By: Nina Mende \u00a0 Yes, I like Take That, but not since the beginning.
