Product Description

From Amazon.com

It's common knowledge that solo albums are simply an excuse for a frustrated band member to indulge their experimental sides and Rob Thomas, singer for decidedly M.O.R. multi-platinum rockers Matchbox Twenty is not one to pass on the opportunity. Having already explored the classic rock thing through his collaborations with Mick Jagger and Santana, Thomas goes the other way here with results that are unexpected and, sometimes, totally unbelievable. He veers from modern R&B on the Justin Timberlake aping "Lonely No More" to vintage prog-rock in "All That I Am," touching on all points in between. There are a few nods to the Matchbox canon with "Ever The Same" and "This Is How A Heart Breaks" but, as the title suggests, this is an album about finding himself. For the moment, Thomas is still searching. The DualDisc portion features 5.1 surround sound, a 20-minute documentary on the making of the album by filmmaker Gillian Grisman, plus the holiday tune, "Christmas in New York." --Aidin Vaziri

This is a great cd, Rob is alot better solo in my opinion. His music is more up beat then it was with matchbox 20 and that's a good thing.

1. this is how a heart breaks: awesome start to this song! catchy & up-beat, good song/start! (2nd single) 10/10

2. lonely no more: another up-beat song, and it has a dancy groove to it. (1st single) 9/10

3. ever the same: Rob slows it down with this song, still a cool song though. 8.5/10

4. i am an illusion: back to the fast songs, awesome beat and great song overall! 10/10

5. when the heartache ends: a pretty slow song, but better then "ever the same" because it`s more catchy and up-beat. 9.5/10

6. something to be: the album title. i like this song too, it's not fast and not slow, just in between. it got a cool mellow vibe to it. 8/10

7. all that i am: awesome song! very different from the rest, it's very tropical sounding with a hot beat! 10/10

8. problem girl: this song is kinda boring, one of the worst on the cd. not horrible though. 6.5/10

9. fallin' to pieces: this one is not so good either, the beat is pretty bad and the song kinda boring. still not too bad. 7/10

10. my, my, my: really slow, but has a catchy hook so it`s not bad. 8.5/10

11. streetcorner symphony: this song sounds outta place on the album, i dunno...it just don't fit. the worst song on the cd. 6/10

12. now comes the night: a very slow song. it makes u think and it's a good song and a great way to end the cd. only a piano used for music. 8/10

that's my opinion, yours may be different.
so go pick up this cd, it`s a good one to add to your collection. 9 out of 12 songs being good and even the other 3 is not horrible, i never skip any.
later!

This review is from: Something to Be (Dual Disc) (Audio CD)
This is an amazing CD! In a world where mediocrity is the rule and little talent gets praised this CD rises quickly to the top. We have always recognized the songwriting ability and vocals of Mr. Thomas as superior, but, as a soloist, everything is enhanced. There is not one bad cut...every song a keeper. This is truly art.
