  1. The whole point of this interview is supposed to "listen" and "gain advice" from a songwriter. Not to hear a opinion from a nobody called Zane Lowe… I was hoping to learn something i felt so sorry for Gary. He has so much patience and he was generous with his time!

    Thank you Gary… I wish i could of learnt more from this but i couldn't but i blame Zane for that!

  2. I used to take the mick out of take that in the 90's… these days Im a massive fan of Gary Barlow…What am amazing song writer…Best songs ever IMHO is The flood and Rule the world (also great production)and greatest day! (oh… and also the chorus to I found heaven very uplifting!)

  3. so this guy didn't realize that rock singers didn't have to have husky voices until he heard coldplay? what about thom yorke

  4. Everyone, lay off the interviewer and interviewers in general! They are just genuinely enthusiastic about the person they are interviewing. At least they actually speak rather than sit there star struck, which is what 99% of the people criticising here would be like in their position. Just be grateful the interviews exist at all.

  5. This interview emphasises that songwriting is a journey. Like all journeys it has twists and turns and unforeseen events that are either positive or negative but can all be used – depending on how objective you can be – to your benefit. It is also important to find your own voice.

  6. Interesting interview, but Zane could you let Barlow do the talking, you often don't let him finish when he's in the middle of pointing out something interesting.
