I don't really know much about Robin's music other than that song that had the disco 5th Of Beethoven by Walter Murphy in it (don't remember the name), but I saw this on TV yesterday. It was the first time I've heard the song at all.

^^ LOL...that's a fun performance

had to post it on my facebook page

On iTunes,Robin's got the Number One album and Number One single in America right now

2-4 and 6-9 are greatest hits albums

double post

I love this album!!! Ive been listening to it for the past couple of days on youtube non stop! I am going to buy this C.D. I keep playing " The Good Life" There are alot of strong cuts on this album.

I think Mayer Hawthorne's album is the type of album Robin Thicke SHOULD make. He's got it in him somewhere.

I think Thicke should be teaching a class on releasing consistently good albums, because he might be doing it better than anyone else in the last 10-12 years.

and it's great that,this time,he's enjoying the type of mainstream success and attention that he deserves.

I really like Mayer's album,but it's not nearly as accessible as Robin's album.Mayer needs that one big major hit song and so far,he hasn't gotten it yet.His label still has alot of work to do.

I LOVE OOH LALA and Ain't No Hat 4 That

"Ooo La La" is my favorite track.I've noticed that many other fans have said that this is their favorite song,too.

"Feel Good" and "The Good Life" are two songs that I've been listening to alot,these past few days.

"Go Stupid 4 U" is a really interesting track

"Take It Easy On Me" and "Give It 2 U" are two club bangers that were tailor-made for the dancefloor.

True, but I think Thicke now has the room to make one like Mayer has.


Though Stones Throw is my favorite label, they're a niche label. He needs a bump IF he's going to connect to larger audiences.

I dunno, I liked the type of music Mayer was making before this album. I knew his music would change once he changed labels.

Thanks to everyone's posts on this very thread,

I picked up this album before the weekend and was jamming!!

I am really impressed!

The front of the album is so strong, I still don't think I heard the entire CD yet.

actually,Mayer Hawthorne is on a major label now.He's on Universal Republic/UMG.Where Does This Door Go is his second major-label release.It's frustrating that they can't seem to take his career to the next level.The new album even features several tracks produced by Pharrell.They gotta be more aggressive and release the right singles."Her favorite Song" is a nice track,but it's not the strongest choice for a first single,imo.

I actually love how Will.I.Am chopped and flipped Melle Mel's "The Message". Did you guys catch that?

I think it's the party album of the year! The first six or seven tracks are tailor-made for the dancefloor.I needed some new JAMS to enjoy and Robin really delivered.

on the track "Feel Good",which is fast becoming one of my favorite songs on the album

I know Janelle has some ways to go but I am REALLYYYYYYY happy for Janelle and Robin. They both have came a LONGGG ways and their success is well deserved.

Nice cover!!!!! Thanks for posting!

Me too, it's a very happy party album. I always thought his albums were a bit boring, but this one was made for the dancefloor

Don't know how it is in the States but "Blurred Lines" the single is being played to absolute death on the radio here in the UK. The song grates on me no end...I think its the MJ whoops randomly throughout that do it. Good old UK radio always kills new artists for me by overplaying their tunes (Bruno Mars, Jessie J, etc)

But I kinda like Thicke's style....the album worth picking up or is it all as annoying as the "Blurred Lines" single?

That's not an MJ whoop. It's a Marvin Gaye whoop

I'm listening to it again as I write, u know, just to check again in case I'd be wrong: Thicke's voice just doesn't sound like Prince's at all: that's really just you tripping on the misconception that falsetto = Prince

Do robin thicke sound like prince "hell no"! Im talking about the influence. U gotta hear the influence in that song.

Prince didn't influence shit on this album. Prince didn't invent a type of falsetto sound. The littler fucker just sings high

Yes!!! Robin has a knack for consistent and excellent production
