Question: Is Robbie Willliams famous in America, do Americans know him and his music? 

Answer: I guess some Americans know him, he has released albums and singles in America.  Some people say they find him to camp, to english, not American enough, some people say they find him to rubbish.  One way to gauge his sucesses and failures in yankie land is to take a look at his chart sucess. The American Chart Postions of Robbie Williams aren't great.  An international release only album 'The Ego Has Landed' which was supposed to be an introduction album to our American friends, which charted in the American Top 100 at 63 which was followed by the Album Sing When Your Winning, which didn't even make it into the top 100, managing to make it in at 110.  Whilst Escapology was his highest charting album at 43.  His singles have fared a little better with the god awful rudebox making the top twenty.  Angels made in in to 41 in the hot 100 whilst Feel made number 40.  Its not impressive but it could be worse, Many artists and bands from Britain struggle, unless they have some years behind them, or come from the 60s 70s & early 80s, such as the Rolling Stones,  Pink Floyd, and Duran Duran..... notable sucesses in recent time have been Radiohead, Dido, Spice Girls and Oasis.  Though the latter have found it hard to consildate their past sucess, though they still at least made the top 30 album charts with their last 3 album releases.  Though robbie isn't big in America the Northern part, he is huge in the Latin part he is one of the biggest International Acts in Latin America.
