You know what's wild about Take That's docu-series? It's like they're trying to tell us something about the music industry that we already knew - it's all about the politics of nostalgia. I mean, think about it: a band that rose to fame in the 90s is now being celebrated as an iconic part of pop history, but what does that really say about our society? Are we just trying to cling to the past because the present is too uncertain?
And let's be real, the fact that they're able to balance nostalgia with a detached perspective says more about us than it does about Take That themselves. We're living in a time where people are more aware of the complexities and challenges of success, but we're still trying to figure out how to navigate those complexities.
It's also interesting that they tackled themes like anxiety and camaraderie in their docu-series. You know what would be even more fascinating? If they delved into the economic implications of a 35-year career in music. I mean, think about all the money that was made, where it came from, and how it was distributed. That's some real politics right there
