Nobody minds constructive criticism - it's healthy and it can be inspiring. However, destructive (accusatory) negativity serves no purpose but to make the recipient feel bad. How can that ever be a good thing? There’s ‘not necessarily complimentary’ and destructive negativity though isn’t there Mel?

I also think that if you can't take any comment from a reader that is not necessarily complimentary, then you're probably in the wrong job. Anyway he admits to being a musical snob!

If they don't like them - why don't they not look at them? I watched a few little bits of Take That and thought they did quite well although I didn't like all the celebrity 'gushing' that was done. Fair play to them - they did bloody well without Robbie - and that's no mean feat! Why do people spend their time making unpleasant comments on peoples’ blogs?

I loved the show in fact I got quite emotional watching it (mostly because it reminded me of my uni days and dancing a the disco) I thought they were very brave to do it live. Interesting that Robbie's new album has done comparatively badly to his other albums now that the rest of the group are doing so well...I fear a backlash.
