The video was inspired by classic films like Rebel Without a Cause and A Streetcar Named Desire. “I’m a big movie fan, especially of old movies,” he stated. “So I really wanted to embody a little bit of that old cinematic charm, the golden age of Hollywood, and try to capture a little bit of that and put it into some soul music.”

Artist: Robin Thicke
Album: Love After War (Deluxe Edition)
Released on: December 6, 2011
Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter, composer and musician, Robin Thicke has penned songs for Christina Aguilera, Brandy, Usher, Michael Jackson, Ashanti, Mary J. Blige, Mya, Jennifer Hudson and others. In 2006, people began to notice him as a solo artist with the release of his double-platinum sophomore album “The Evolution of Robin Thicke”. From that album spun “Lost Without You”, Thicke’s most recognizable track, which made it to #1 on the Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and #14 on the Billboard Hot 100. Thicke was the first Caucasian male artist to top the R&B charts since George Michael. Now Thicke serves up his fifth studio effort with productions by Swizz Beatz, Poo Bear, Jeff Bhasker, Pro-J, Polow Da Don and more.
Love After War began with a great opening in “An Angel On Each Arm”. The song presented components of funk, with strong vocals and a raw quality. On “I’m An Animal”, Thicke continues on an old-school path with live instrumentation and a hook that was captivating, which was probably the best part of the song. “Never Give Up” started off with the sweeping sounds of an orchestra and gradually built with percussion, making it classical yet current. With “The New Generation”, Thicke incorporated jazz elements with nice horns. I loved this groove from the lyrics to the infectious chorus to the smooth background vocals. All of those factors gelled really well. At times, I felt like I was listening to the legendary Marvin Gaye.
The title-track “Love After War” is a great representation of blue-eyed soul, the vocals are fluid and sexy. Thicke really went in on this track! Co-produced by Mary J. Blige ”All Tied Up” exhibited airy vocals, where Robin decided to delve in to his falsetto. The track was really sensual and definitely one of my favorites that I could not resist replaying. On “Pretty Lil’ Hands” Thicke was joined by Lil’ Wayne. Thicke’s vocals were staccato and titillating. Actually, I would have preferred the song without the accompaniment of the rap because it did not add anything to the track for me.”Mission” was a contrast between subduing and passionate and I loved it. The inflections Thicke gave were quite reminiscent of one of my favorite artists, Prince. This was another song I kept repeating.
“Tears On My Tuxedo” was a beautiful track. The first vocal comparison that popped in my mind was Smokey Robinson. It wasn’t the deepest of songs, however I could appreciate it. I loved how much it reminded me of Brazilian Bossa Nova. On “Boring” Thicke gave one of my favorite celebrity couples a cool shout-out and basically, expressed to his love that he is happy he’s in an eventful relationship, where there’s never a dull moment. The song seemed to be an interlude that he decided to lengthen by allowing the instrumental to play out and it worked well. “Lovely Lady” was an interlude that felt nostalgic of Stevie Wonder’s writing ability. Sonically, the track gave me the feeling of Latin Jazz and made me want to dance Salsa. Both songs “Dangerous” and “Full Time Believer” were not much inspiring to me. They were okay, but both turned out to be my least favorites of the album. Continue reading

There is never enough [sex]. When it does happen, it goes on for hours.” Heyyyyy! I can’t blame them at all.
