Is Robin Thicke's 'Dreamworld' Yours Too?
I've always felt that this incarnation of Robin Thicke used too much falsetto. He does it extremely well, don't get me wrong, but "Dreamworld" is so refreshing sans the vocal technique. Though this video is shot as slowly and as contemplatively as he sings those wishful lyrics, it is as beautiful as he and his video lover look in his soft, cross-processed dream. Thicke is suave and knows it, debonairly moving around each luscious set. Wistful gazes to the sky, and loving glances into his Paula Patton-esque counterpart's eyes only add to the dreaminess of this video. What a beautiful, intimate video for a lovely song.

urbanguy | February 11, 2009 9:00 PM | PermalinkThis is a perfect song for this rainy day. I'm feeling it, annnnd for Robin staying out of his higher register. Reminds me a verry little bit of Jeff Buckley, somehow: white boy's spare, soulful lament.
Okay, I might have to finally cop this disc. I hope the Mary J. remix of "Magic' is on there, too.

But he wasnt salty. He just said, I guess I better make better music... I think he does already and I absolutely love this video. Shows beauty without the look at this woman or watch my feet so you dont have to listen to the junk I am singing about loved the feel of the whole concept. Good Job!!
