He's told Q magazine it was the trigger for the electro-pop sound on new album Progress.
"I'm guessing that the initial idea of not being called Take That freed Gary up," said the 36-year-old.-Newsbeat Reporter.
Robbie Williams originally left the band in 1995 but started work on new material after clearing the air with Gary Barlow last year.
Jason Orange says that Williams' departure could have been caused by "bullying" by the other members.Robbie Williams also says that despite his solo success he longed to be back in a group.Excitement about the Take That reunion also overshadowed his last solo album, Williams admitted.
