Music Trivia -> Better Off Solo -> T
Sometimes a lead singer gets kicked out of a band, or leaves when their head gets too big for them. How well did they do on their own?
Band | Name | Comments & Submittor Name | ||
| Take That | Robbie Williams | He's so big solo nowadays, that everyone's forgotten he's in Take That! He's so famous that when Take That recently re-formed, they didn't include Robbie, cos he's so big as a solo artist! - Time Machine | ||
| Take That | Robbie Williams | Robbie Williams' successful career in Europe started when he had left Take That. - B1982 | ||
| Tarantula Joy Hypnosis | Dan & Travis | We left to start our own band (Carless Roadtrip). We have had more success already. I did not put our last names over the internet for security reasons but we are better of now. - Travis | ||
| Tears For Fears | Curt Smith | Curt's most recent solo album Halfway Pleased is good. - Celeste | ||
| Them | Van Morrison | After Morrison left Them, no one really knew about Them. - Paul Warren | ||
| Them | Van Morrison | Them had a couple of minor hits, but Van Morrison had much better results as a soloist. - Barry Disbrow | ||
| The Tokens | Neil Sedaka | He was the original lead singer of the Tokens. Both he and the Tokens were far more successful after he left the group. - Barry Disbrow | ||
| The Tokens | Neil Sedaka | He was the Tokens' original lead singer. While he was with the group, they were not very successful. After he left, both he and the Tokens would become very successful. - Barry Disbrow | ||
| Trick Pony | Heidi Newfield | For quite some months now, a Heidi Newfield CD has been easy to find most everywhere CDs are sold, but Trick Pony CDs have been hard to find, until Now (April of 2009). Now a "Best Of Trick Pony" CD has just been issued. A sticker on its wrapping describes it, including the words "featuring Heidi Newfield" with her name in about twice as big a font as anything else on the sticker. Heidi must have had success solo to outshine her former band, if her name is that much the selling point for the band's "Best Of.." CD. - Lou Quilson |
