Customer Rating:      Summary: Mixed feelings Comment: I purchased this cd for my husband, who really likes Robin's music. I myself do not like his music at all. He would not stop playing it, so now he's only allowed to listen to it in the car, but he still breaks out in 'Robin song' in the house.
I deduce that if you like Robin, you would love this cd. If you don't like Robin, don't buy it for your spouse.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Makes You Feel SOOOOO SEXY Comment: This is a SEXY CD from beginning to end. (not in a vulgar way) Robin Thicke has such a beautiful smooth voice and has a way of making you feel beautiful and sexy as well. It's been a long time since a artist had that sound. With the slow songs being my favorites, even the fast ones are sutible for a night alone with your honey. Guys, get this one for your girl. She'll love it. I would have given it 10 stars if I could.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Should come with a warning Comment: I really enjoyed a lot of these tracks before buying, but there should be a warning on here that these types of enhanced CDs may not play on all CD players - I can't play it in my car, and although I have 3 CD players in my house, the CD only plays on one of them, and it's the cheaper one whose sound quality is not so great.
Customer Rating:      Summary: The Opposite of Justin Timberlake Comment: First of all, if your idea of neo-soul and R&B is defined by Justin Timberlake, then this will be the CD to set you free. The Timberlake comparisons are inevitable of course - like him, Robin Thicke is young, photogenic, and he's married to an extremely beautiful woman.
However, one listen to "Lost Without You", and you can tell there is something special about this performer. I have had this album for exactly ONE YEAR now, and with the passing of time, let me tell you that it only gets better and better. Its a pity that not many people know about Robin, because he deserves all the success he gets.
I am a huge fan of the blue eyed soul genre, and to me, Thicke epitomizes everything that is right about it - solid grooves (no one can ride a groove like Janet Jackson on her good days, but Robin is a close second) and excellent vocal delivery (soprano AND falsetto) - simply amazing.
If you're looking for an eclectic and memorable R&B CD that will stand the test of time, you came to the right page. Get this today.
Five Stars. Goodbye Justin.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Better than I thought Comment: Although there are a couple of songs that use adult language I am pleased with the album. I would recommend it if you like this type of music.

R&B with tempo: Justin Timberlake resurrected it, and it's proving way more influential than that other lost commodity--sexy--he claimed to be bringing back in 2006 on FutureSex/LoveSounds. Timberlake is to Robin Thicke what 'N Sync and Backstreet Boys were to a band like O-Town, in fact: he pretty much made it all possible. But even though it took one blue-eyed soulster with a hot look and an achy falsetto to bang down the door for another, Thicke presents a convincing case here that he had the goods to get us grooving all along: Evolution is a classy disc that tiptoes up to its listeners, first with an elegant duet with Faith Evans ("Got 2 Be Down"), next with a slick lament that wouldn't sound out of place on a Boyz II Men disc ("Complicated"), and then with a sweet plea that commands a finger-snap ("Would That Make U Love Me"). By the time we reach the long, sweeping lullaby that is the final track, "Angels," we've also had a taste of Thicke's swaggering side ("I Need Love," "Cocaine"), his hip-hop loving side ("All Night Long" and "Shooter," both with Lil Wayne), and the side that fantasizes about 1950s Latin ballrooms ("Everything I Can't Have," a hot tamale of a number that commands a visual if ever there was one: it's impossible to hear this song without imagining a raven-haired woman with a red rose between her teeth). Despite the range of moods on display, they're all in service to Thicke's inner R&B smoothie, and they all brush up against the ear with something like affection. Hard as it will be for listeners of a certain age to get past knowing that Thicke is the son of Alan Thicke, the actor who did his part to cheese up 1980s TV with the sitcom Growing Pains, they're going to have to: with his fan base swelling by the second, the evolution of Robin Thicke is going to be a deservedly loud one. --Tammy La Gorce
