He's pretty HOT himself. He's not that typical good looking pretty boy type but he's very good looking and sexy. Rob is incredible sexy... especially when he's on stage. I don't know what it is but you can tell he's genuinely feeling the music and the way he moves on stage makes me want to melt.

This Is How A Heart Breaks blows Lonely No More out of the water. You have to listen to it a few times to take it all in. There's a lot going on in this song. Love it, love it, love it.
I'm wondering if Rob will have to take female backup singers on tour? I can't see this song being the same without them. I guess we'll see soon enough.

This song doesn't even sound anything like LNM, as some people have said. I love this! The guitars rock. Still not sure about the female backing vocals towards the end but I'm sure that will grow on me.

I heard that song yesterday. It's very different. I'm guessing no two tracks on the album will sound similar.

I'm kind of hesitant to listen to the new song. I guess I'm afraid I won't like it. Any comments on the song from peeps who have heard it?

"This is How a Heart Breaks" has a funky vibe to it that makes you want to dance. Rob's voice is really smooth on this song, no pun intended. I have been very pleased so far with the 2 songs that I have heard off of his album.

Okay, I'm not much of a song reviewer but I'll give it a shot. I read one article and the writer described this song as sounding like Genesis. I can kind of see that because it is very drum, beat heavy. Remember that the drummer and bass players are two guys who play on many hip-hop and R&B tracks (Dr Dre, Beyonce, and Mary J. Blige). So I would say its Genesis with a modern beat. The song is dark. I can envision seeing a big city at night when listening to this song. Rob's vocals are not polished, very rough esp at the beginning. Reminders me more of YOSLY days. There is one really smooth part that I like. There are two female R&B singers throughout the song but at the end they really are more dominant than Rob. There is a lot of layering of vocals. I just love it. The beat is killer and carries the song throughout. The lyrics are very edgy.

I've listened to "This Is How A Heart Breaks" a few times and I love it. It's very 80's. It sounds like it could have been a Top 5 hit for Don Henley twenty years ago. I might end up liking his solo album more than any of the Matchbox Twenty albums.

I might end up liking his solo album more than any of the Matchbox Twenty albums. I agree. I thought of Don Henley or Glen Frey when I heard the song the first time. That's not to say that I think the song is dated. It's sounds 80ish but modern at the same time. Rob stated that he thought a lot of the record sounded like old 80's soul tunes. I think I see what he is saying. Just great music that I personally think IS very different from MB20.

I heard the song on a radio channel here in Sweden. It was the first time it was played here in Sweden but I don't know if that means they are planning to release the song and album in Europe a few months after the US. I'm guessing they want to use the info on how well it has done in the US before releasing the album here.

Does "This is How a Heart Breaks" sound like a future single? Or is it just a track off the album that they played? If a single, what format do you think it would play on? It seems like peeps on the MB20 board are liking it. Mostly positive responses. I read that there was a WPLJ event Friday night to have 100 fans listen to 8 of the songs from the new album. But the posts didn't go into much detail on the other songs, unfortunately.
Shouldn't we have LNM video in the next few weeks? Also, if you didn't know. Rob is going to be on some TV shows in the next month or so:
March 18th - Jay Leno
April 14th - Ellen
VH1 Save The Music - April 11th at Beacon Theater in NYC - airs April 17th on VH1

I think TIHAHB deffintly has the potential to be a single.. I like it more than LNM but I like both. I think it has the same appeal LNM has.. would do well on RCH/POP, HOT AC, AC. It's a bit more rock, but it's verrry pop.. the chorus is catchy as hell and the female backup singers make it even sound more poppy..
