Album Description:
'Like Marvin Gaye hangin' with LCD Soundsystem '- The Observer
Amazon.co.uk:
Australian-born soul starlet Sam Sparro has been making ears prick up of late. His savvy blend of soul, funk and modern electronica nods to 70s and 80s legends like Stevie Wonder and Hall &s; Oates, but Sparro brings a sassy style and modern production ethic that renders his music 21st Century fresh. Armed with a smooth, mercurial voice, Sparro sashays slickly through disco, funk and soul, moving waists with the punchy electro-funk of 'Too Many Questions', 'Black & Gold' and'Cut Me Loose', soaring soul like 'Hot Mess' and darker material like 'Pocket’ and the synth-laden 'Sick' (which comes over all Calvin Harris, admittedly minus the kitsch, ironic appeal). 'Clingwrap' is pop-lite Prince, and there’s the occasional slower track like 'Waiting For Time' and 'Cottonmouth', but mostly this is an upbeat collection for good time people. His Daft Punk-meets-Jamiroquai single 'Black & Gold' has already earned him deserved comparisons to contemporary blue-eyed soul boys like Jamie Lidell; Sam Sparro is assured enough to make him a star.--Danny McKenna

Rating:  - The next STAR on the horizon, Sam Sparro!!
WHAT an exciting new star in the making, AGAIN! By now, if you're digging deeper into any Sam info, you already know the "tasty bits" ie; former child star, writing songs while at the coffeeshop, etc. But I'd like to add for this young man to SO deliciously re-energize The 80's 'Lectro-Disco-Pop sound so very well from his own writings - without 1 single sample or hook - I find just wonderful!! I've played & replayed my CD to everyone who'll give him a listen & all have come back with the ... Read More
Rating:  - Sam Sparro Tecno
I ordered the CD for one song "Black and Gold" but ended up liking over half of the tracks on the CD. It was a good purchase over all. There is an extra track.
Rating:  - Didn't like the lyrics
I heard Sparro's Black and Gold song today for the first time, rushed over to the internet to see the video, LOVED it, then I saw some interviews of him and read the lyrics, apparently the song is not a love song but is about god.Then the song became sad to me that his lyrics talk about not wanting to exist if he can't prove there is a god.BUMMER.Great tune, but I won't be buying the CD now.
i feel a way of something beyond them
i don't see what i can feel

Rating: - I Love this Guy!!
Songs are upbeat and rhythmic.This is "club-scene" music with a liberal flavor.The songs are about water shortage, pollution, hunger&famine, recycling. Black and Gold is just HOT. I really think this whole CD is very well put together, fun and definitely worth buying. I bought 2 cd's for gifts.
Rating: - "Limited Edition" Questions
This US edition of the CD seems to have an extra/bonus track, #14, which AMAZON.COM is calling "Still Hungry" on their download list.I have the actually CD in my hand and the track is NOT listed on the outside packaging, but does show on my CD player's menu and does play (i.e., not hidden).That must be why it is listed at "Limited Edition."
