Two Awards
Famous pop group Take That was recently granted with the second Silver Clef Award in their history, said BBC News. Therefore, they’ve turned to be more successful (of course, in terms of getting this award only) than Paul McCartney and The Rolling Stones, which have received Silver Clef just once. The first award was given to the band way back in 1995, only a few months before Robbie Williams has left them in order to start his absolutely smashing solo career. Why this award’s organisers like Take That so much is not very clear though, and why such monsters of music as The Rolling Stones and Sir Paul were left behind them is even more strange. However, Take That is not without a talent, and definitely they deserve certain amount of respect. After all, musicians like McCartney are surely way above them, and their fame is dwelling on the higher level, on the level of history. Take That is not that huge, so maybe that’s the reason why they deserve to have more awards of this sort. Silver Clef Award was founded by the Nordoff-Robbins charity foundation and is traditionally given out annually to all kinds of musicians including such bands as Take That. During this year’s ceremony there was an auction, which enabled Silver Clef’s organisers to collect up to 400 thousand pounds. Surely, not without Take That’s help.
