I like "P.D.A." but as a single? Not much. I'm surprised "Heaven" didn't do better.

P.D.A. is my favorite song on the album . I was waiting for it to save the album but I think it came out too late. The video is kinda cheesy, but he did the best he could with it.
I hope he sends it out to more formats than just Urban and AC.
And I saw him in VA Beach with Robin Thicke, awsome show.

Congrats John on 2 Grammy wins. He's a shoe-in for nods for R&B Male, R&B song and R&B Album next year.

R&B Album for sure but the other two only if he releases "Again". "Save Room" and "Heaven" can't be nominated again and "P.D.A." isn't a strong enough song IMO.

I love John Legend. My first and so far only experience with him is 'Save Room' and I can't stop listening to it. Now I must work hard to catch up to the rest of you and listen to all his works. Any suggestions on what to start with? How many cd's has he recorded to date?

I think just three - his demo as John Stevens, and his debut + once again. Oddly enough, I actually like him more when he's the hook boy or on somebody else's stuff, like on Common's "They Say", Miri Ben Ari's "Ghetto" and "Please Baby Don't" off of Sergio Mendes' cd. "High Road" off Fort Minor's CD is also quite good.

I don't like this album as much as I liked the first one. "Show Me" is amazing though.

His CD selling over 1 million ain't bad. If he can just get a single off the ground, the CD could approach the heights that Get Lifted attained. His problem is the fact that he strayed too far from Urban and other formats have no interest in his material as much which is why he's struggling to get any of his singles optimal attention & support.

What were the singles/videos off of this so far, and how have they done?
I only remember "Save Room" and "Heaven".

I heard a rumor that John got nodules from his tour on his vocal chords, and that's why the music on this last album is so much mellower. I think that's kind of unfortunate, if true, because I love the way he belts out OP and SH from "Get Lifted" and I miss that sound on the new album. Hopefully he'll be feeling a little better by next time around and work on producing that kind of sound in a healthier way for himself.
