This was the second single from Bruno's album, "Unorthodox Jukebox." It was written and produced by The Smeezingtons. It peaked at #1 at CHR/Pop, #1 at AC, #1 on the Hot 100 and #2 in the UK. This wasn't my first choice as the follow-up to "Locked Out of Heaven," but I liked that pop radio was giving a ballad a chance. Excellent vocal on this.

I've always loved this song, and I never got why people didn't like it!!! <3

I used to hate it and it was always an instant station changer, but I have come to realize that it's not that bad. It's a decent enough piano ballad and Bruno does some really impressive things with it vocally. There's just something about the melody that rubs me the wrong way, so it's still not one I'd ever go out of my way to hear.
The bridge is the best part. Bruno sings the "I was wrong" line beautifully. Bruno's voice is excellent and I really wish I liked his songs better.

Probably my favorite of this style of song from him, but I don't want to hear these types of ballads from him anymore.

I was shocked to see it go #1.
I hated it with passion at the time, with the years I've grown to accept it's existence but I still don't enjoy it at all. It Will Rain should've gone #1 instead.

Lol, this is good, but "Talking to The Moon" will always be my #1 favorite out of all these heavy-on-the-sentiment ballads he does.

I like it but it's not his best.
