Not sure how this site has it, but you can hear a preview there (you might have to log in with Facebook first; I did so, then promptly revoked its permissions, lol).

Ripped the snippet and put it on Tumblr. I wonder if he's gonna abandon Pop radio once again and go back to his roots considering all that he lost behind his crossover success.

This sounds good. I have a feeling I'll like this more than his last two lead singles. "Blurred Lines" left a really bad taste in my mouth though. I don't know if I'll ever enjoy him as much as I did before that song.

This is very cute. Classic Robin, it reminds me of Barry White. Hope they ain't suing him though.

When he first starts singing (0:33) it reminds me of No Air

This is a JAM!!! It's very Love After War. This is my favorite song of his since "Mission". I can't wait for the album.

Low-key love this. Glad he's back to making good music after his last two albums were a little...mediocre.

I like this a lot. I'd probably say it's more Something Else than Love After War, not that either is a bad thing. Over under: The album sells 60 albums in Australia in its first week Over, I guess lol. Robin's albums have such a distinct pendulum swing when it comes to performance that this is almost guaranteed to be a commercial improvement by default. He just needs to keep his shit together for his r&b fanbase; urban fans tend to be very forgiving of someone's screw ups as long as they think you are "loyal" and give them hit songs.
