Editor's note

Gary Barlow, Take That's songwriter and solo voice

From boy-band hits to solo ballads, he's been writing the tunes for decades.

For a quick sense of his range, listen to 'Back For Good' and 'Since I Saw You Last.' They show the ballad writer who stuck around.

He wrote 'Back For Good,' which won a Brit Award and became a global hit. That song alone makes him more than just a pop singer. You can hear his hand in Take That's sound and his own solo work like 'Since I Saw You Last.'

He started in Take That in 1990, writing early hits like 'Do What U Like.' After the band split, his solo career took off with 'Back For Good.' The 2005 reunion brought him back as the group's lead vocalist and main songwriter.

Archive material and source history

Gary Barlow started writing songs as a teenager, influenced by Stevie Wonder and Elton John. In 1990, he became part of Take That alongside Jason Orange, Howard Donald, Mark Owen, and Robbie Williams. The group's debut album, 'Take That & Party,' included the hit 'Do What U Like.'

Take That disbanded in 1996, and Barlow began a solo career. His 1998 ballad 'Back For Good' became a global hit and won a Brit Award for Best British Single. He later released albums like 'Since I Saw You Last,' which shares its name with one of his songs.

Take That reunited in 2005 for a concert, leading to a full comeback with new albums and tours. Barlow remains the band's lead vocalist and primary songwriter, working with the current lineup of Donald, Owen, and Orange.
