Summary: Nice and Relaxing
Comment: I like this CD. He has a very cool, melodramatic voice. Takes my stresses away, especially during rush hour!
Customer Rating:
Summary: For those that didn't like this album.
Comment: If you didn't like this album...
Go listen to T-Pain or Ne-yo or some other joker with as much talent as chris brown.
This album's not for you, you would've know it had you previewed it before you bought it (common sense would have told you, but hey, excuse me for figuring that people still possessed such a simple concept).
I didn't like the first album, oh sue me, I prefer an album to have a common theme running through the tracks produced thereby making a coherent album with personality more than just a mesh of tracks thrown together with nothing of substance to hold it together. The first album was a 'had to do', this album, was who he is.
Substance: n.
1. Essential nature; essence.
2. heart.
3. That which is solid and practical in character, quality, or importance:
This album has it. You feel it's bad, like I said, listen to Ne-yo, but keep that it moving.
Feel me.

Summary: I love this CD!!!
Comment: John Legend has amazed me once again with his musicality. From his first cd "Get Lifted" to this one, you can see a maturity in his music. It is a unique style that sets him apart from most R&B and Hip Hop Singers. He is a very great composer and writer and I am definitely excited to see what he comes up with next!

It takes guts, if not outright egomania, to abandon your given surname and adopt a loaded one like Legend, but the former John Stephens must have sensed that loftiness would one day be his calling card: Once Again, the follow-up to the Grammy-gobbling, platinum pile-on that was Get Lifted, surpasses expectations. Not that it bears much relation to its predecessor. Again again trots out a stable of talented, modern-minded producers--Raphael Saadiq, Legend comrade Kanye West, and the unsinkable will.i.am--but it's nowhere near as self-conscious about embracing the old-school as the knowing, R&B edge-skimming Lifted. Don't expect a derivative mash of smudgy, nostalgia-filching sounds, though, because despite its retro leanings, what's in store somehow crackles with currency. Call it neo-retro if you must, but never call it unimaginative: first single "Save Room" coasts, drifts, and floats along a ponderous path spiked by a cool keyboard-y crescendo; second single "Heaven" busts out a big, busy beat over a slow seduction; and a couple of selections--"Each Day Gets Better" and "PDA"--are so bright and twirly they seem custom-made for dizzy love scenes or jaunty, sunny-day skips through the park. Maybe the most unusual track is "Show Me," a rock song that pilfers elements of Hendrix and finds Legend climbing a few octaves to sound, weirdly, like Jeff Buckley, but it works: so slippery is its beat and so affecting are its hope-laced lyrics that, oddness aside, it's among the disc's best. Sandwiched as it is among 14 songs that all sound like future classics, that's saying something. --Tammy La Gorce More Legendary Music
