I like the song...for the reasons you've listed Soul'. I'm kinda surprised because I'm not a fan/listener to Mr. Thicke's previous work(s). Could you tell me the other songs on his Cd you like? I'll have to check-it-out. Thanks.

I like this one too. It gets me the way Can You Believe did on the last one.

Yeah, there's a lush feel to the arrangement that works for me. The lyrics at the end kinda got to me...a little bolder than I anticipated.

This and "Lost Without You" are my favorites so far from Thicke. I so wish he and Jennifer Hudson were coming to my town! neutral

I love this song, but I prefer Loverman. I hope that will be a single as well.

His album 'Something Else' is fantastic.I like it even more than his last album.It's a strong,consistent album that flows really nicely.Robin is Old School.For the most part,he's making R&B music that doesn't rely on hip-hop influences at all.He's more into Marvin Gaye,Al Green and other artists like that.You can hear it in his music.I pretty much like all the songs but my favorites are "Sidestep","Magic","Dreamworld","Shadow Of Doubt", "The Sweetest Love" and the disco-flavored title track,which I hope becomes a future single.The uptempo songs on this album are especially good.

nod especially the Marvin Gaye reference.That part took me by surprise.

The Robin Thicke/Jennifer Hudson tour is an excellent pairing.I think he produced something on her album.That should be a great tour.

As far as singles go,I want them to focus on the uptempo songs this time lol "Magic" was an excellent first single.The title track and "Sidestep" would make great future singles.

"Sidestep" is a good choice, but not over "You're My Baby."

I can't tell you how how happy I am for Jennifer that she didn't accept Matthew Knowles' offer to manage her (when she worked with Beyonce on Dreamgirls)
whew. Although it took a while for her cd to be released, her career seems to be advancing in a very good direction and she is carving out a nice little niche market for herself.

She certainly is nod and unlike Beyonce,she's actually releasing quality music instead of silly,gimmicky crap like "Single Ladies".Jennifer comes across as much more dignified than that.

Exactly...although I like to check out the fun, gimmicky stuff like everyone else, the truth is that I'm pushing 40 and I like having a young r&b artist release mature music I can listen to without feeling I have to get up and do a booty shake lol
