I bought this cd as I did have it a couple of years ago and loved it. But unfortunately I lost it and could not find it anywhere. (It will turn up now I have bought it again). This is a very good cd and would advise to have a listen!
I purchased this cd when it was 1st released, but having lent it out it was returned scratched and damaged :0( ...So i was delighted to find this for sale! and even more delighted when I won it! A fab cd, so different from Robbies normal stuff, and amazing!! So pleased! :o)
It was the only one missing from our collection, so bought it on ebay as it was easy to find, great CD, love Robbie anyway so probably a bit bias. Great easy listening, you just can't help singing along. 5/5 would recommend!! pillows35
If youve never heard swing (which alot of teenagers wont have) try this for an up to date version of some much loved songs and a few new.
Robbie dedicated alot of these songs to the origanal artists such as Frank Sinatra. It makes a change to see a pop star do something that no one expects them to do.
A beautiful voice to go with beautiful music and lyrics.
Great for dancing to (such as jive and swing, im a teacher by the way) and loved by older people and the younger ones that are mad over robbie.
Pros: Its robbie doing what he does best....Singing his heart out. its chilling and a great collection of some of the best songs of all time.
Cons: If you know you dont like swing music dont bother buying it and then complaining. Its a definate branch out for robbie that most people wont like the change.
My verdict: Youve got to buy it for the culture and out of respect that Robbie actually tries to bring this culture into todays music charts.
