Take That - The Flood 2010

Take That are an English pop group formed in Manchester in 1990. The group currently consists of Gary Barlow (of X Factor judge fame), Howard Donald and Mark Owen. The original line-up also featured Jason Orange and Robbie Williams. The group have had 28 top-40 singles, 20 top-10 and 17 top-5 singles on the UK Singles Chart, 12 of which have reached number one. They have also had nine number-one albums on the UK Albums Chart. They have received eight Brit Awards, including Best British Group and Best British Live Act. In 2012 they received an Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British Music.

Williams left the band in 1995, while the four remaining members completed their world tour and released a final single before splitting up in 1996. After filming a 2005 documentary about the group and releasing a new greatest hits album, a four-piece Take That relesed their fourth studio album, Beautiful World, in 2006. Williams rejoined Take That in 2010 for the band's sixth studio album, Progress. It became the fastest-selling album of the 21st century and the second-fastest-selling album in British history. "The Flood" was released as the lead single from Progress on 7 November 2010. It peaked at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart, and was a hit internationally.

"The Flood" received a total of 65,9% yes votes! Previous Take That polls: #303 "Babe". Previous Robbie Williams polls: #129 "The Road to Mandalay", #383 "No Regrets", #492 "Let Me Entertain You", #610 "Angels", #759 "Supreme" (and a bonus poll).
