Binding: Audio CD EAN: 0602517809895 Label: Interscope Records Manufacturer: Interscope Records MPN: 001179302 Number Of Discs: 1 Publisher: Interscope Records Release Date: September 30, 2008 Studio: Interscope Records Rating:  - Robin Thicke "Something Else"This is a great new album! Nice variety of tracks, and the quality of sound that I love to hear in all his albums. Some people I know say that he has gone a bit comercial since a few albums ago, I forgot the name of it...the one with the song "Shooter" (original version.) "Something Else" to me has a combination of Robin Thicke soul groove and a tiny bit commerical (radio station friendly) music. Anyhow, I love it!!! Good stuff!!! I especially love the song "Dreamworld." I recommend listening to this album with some high quality head phones, what a treat!! Rating: - Loving Robin Thicke!Love Robin Thicke's new CD, Something Else. My favorite is Dream World. He's done it again - if you're a Robin fan, this is one you've gotta have. Rating: - HE DOES IT AGAIN! Robin Thicke does it again. He has so much SOUL, it is unbelieveable. I am looking forward to his next CD already, can't get enough! Rating: - Fantastic piece of work...I am saddened that I didn't jump on this album sooner. I loved "The Evolution" and thought he couldn't top or even come close to the greatness of that album. I have been proven wrong and can't stop listening to "Loverman". Rating:  - excels in consistencyThis is a very well done R&B album, and I give it the same rating as I would the original (Evolution of Robin Thicke) but it earns that distinction in a markedly different way. Evolution impressed by having extraordinary stand out tracks (Can U Believe, 2 the Sky, Complicated, Teach U A Lesson, I need love and of course Lost without U) it also had songs that I skip over till today (Cocaine, Shooter, All Night long ...). My gripe with Evolution was that the pacing of the album is not so hot ... it goes from a nice slow jam like "I need love" to the craptastic "Wanna love u Girl" to the awesome "Can U Believe" back to "Shooter" and "Cocaine" However, with "Something Else" what you get is a more mature and solidly R&B album than Evolution. The songs that resemble each other in tempo tend to cluster together more instead of being sprinkled all through the album ... and it makes for a more consistent listening experience. None of the songs here really reach the heights of the ones on Evolution (standouts include Cry no more, Tie my hands, Loverman, Dreamworld, Ms Harmony) but they are pretty darned good. The fact that the lows on this album aren't as 'low' as on Evolution, makes up for the fact that its highs are not as 'high' as on Evolution ... and thats okay with me, because it makes the album seem more complete. enjoy.
