Listen To This: The British Robin Thicke
Filed under: Anglophilia > Amy Winehouse > Listen To This
Apparently, Amy Winehouse's ex-boyfriend, whom she's been spending a lot of time with, is a musician as well.
And he's quite good!
His name is Tyler James, and we are loving his blue-eyed soul.
We've been listening to all his stuff today and we can't get enough.
Click here to check out the killer Your Woman.
Click here to check out his duet with Wino, Best For Me.
And, round thing out with Why Do I?
Such a bummer we can't buy Tyler's music on iTunes in America!!!!

I've been listening to his stuff for a short time and I really dig his voice and style.
He is a cutie and he knows how to dress. I could never describe fieldandstream with those words!!LOL
Very Nice Music Perezito. Thanks for introducing his music to us. I really like the song he sang with Wino.
Amy, what the heck were you thinking? Definitely you DOWNGRADED TO THAT LOSER HUSBAND OF YOURS!
he is delicious… love at first sight yummy!
what on earth is he doing with amy? sure their voices and style are fabulous together on that duet, but come on…. dating? amy is a disgusting mess right now! it would be like britney & justin getting back together!
it's sad the way the american mu$ic biz ensures you only hear the worst over & over…THERE IS GOOD MUSIC out there YOU just have to look.
He is HOT!!! Why wait for hubby if she can be with Tyler James ?
Hi Perez!! lovin your work but in fact Tyler James is gay!!!!
The original version of the song is by far much better than his. Try listening to White town´s original.
See ya!
He's nice to look at but is NOT like Robin Thicke, this music is NOT any kinda soul. This is pop music and everyone sounds like WILLIAM HUNG next to Amy!!
'Foolish' is his best hit to date.
I'm tired of people overlooking Jon B and acting like Robin Thicke invented all this. Jon B has been putting out great albums for years and is much better than Robin Thicke.
THANK YOU, THANK YOU PEREZ! I LOVE IT!
He's WAAAAAAAAAAY hotter then the druggie she married!!!!
OMG we need to get this guy back his record deal. Perez Power to the rescue … this guy can't fall by the way side because the music industry is in the shitter!

okay Perez,
I am upset… he sounds nothing like Robin Thicke. I am sorry, I love robin thick. This kid sound more like a fake JC ( from Nsync), than a Robin Thicke. and his voice kinda bothers me too.
Ohhh i loved Tyler James Why do I? I bought the single but then he seemed to disappear…why do I do so should have been number 1.
'your woman' is a cover of Whitetown…it's not his song and he does'nt cover it that well if you listen to the original.
He seems like a sexy metro. I totally hope Amy gets it together for herself and with him. Delish! F'getabout Blake, Amy.
I prefer the original of "Your Woman" but he's not bad to look at.
"Your Woman" is a remake. It was first released in the early 90's by a band called White Town and was a huge hit on the dance charts, specially with the Gays!. You can buy the original version on American iTunes. Although Mr. Tyler is cute, the original version is so much better.
Your Woman is certainly not Tyler's "killer" song. It is a bad cover version. It was a one-hit wonder hit for an Indian guy who recorded it in his bedroom. My friends and I LOVED this song in the nineties. The original beats its fucking socks off.
on youtube..his video Why Do I Do….is that girl i the beginning that runs outta the wetness…our wino?
OMG LOVE IT! I want to buy the freaking songs!! WHy can't we buy them here!???
"Your Woman" a cover…gee, ya' THINK?? How old are you people anyway, 12????
i saw this guy in a gay bar in london TONIGHT, believe it or not. i always thought he was gay too.
he is, right? i'm gay, i dont care if he is or not, but in the name of accurate reportage…
amazing singer. really fantastic live.
wow he's great! and adorable
this was a digital release in the UK which FLOPPED
HOT
Hey, everyone know hes n the music business, help is one of the main reason shes n the business DUMMY!
PEREZ I FIND IT FUNNY YOU SAY THIS BECAUSE IF SOMEONE ELSE WAS TO SAY THIS, YOU WOULD DECIDE THAT THEY WERE RACIST. EVEN THOUGH I KNOW IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RACE. IM JUST USING YOUR THINKING PATTERN HERE. SUCH AS, I DONT AGREE WITH HOMOSEXUALITY BUT TO YOU AND THE OTHER GAYS THAT MEANS THAT IM HOMOPHOBIC AND HATEFUL (WHICH IS SO NOT TRUE). ANYONE GET MY DRIFT HERE?
:O I went to see tyler james like 3 years ago in concert! he's awesome…and really hot
x
I have loved this guy since i lived in the UK and that was 3 years ago, and i can't find anywhere that i could get his album. If you know where i can get it please tell me!
He's a cutie. Lovee that accent :]
he is cheesy
your woman sounds awful
OMG… I remember that song Your Woman… it came out when I was in middle school. Cool remake!
Wow…this guy makes Blake look like an even bigger downgrade. Didn't think it was possible really.
This guy sounds more like Jesse McCartney than Robin Thicke, and that is not "blue-eyed soul" at all. You were way off with that one Perez. That guy is no Robin Thicke.
The original version of "Your Woman" by White Town is SOOOOO much better than this crap. But the guy is cute. I can't imagine that he'd really have anything to do with Whino though.
…That music is Fail.
LOVE "Best For Me"! Amy sounds amazing on this (as he does also) and she looked so healthy and dare I say-Pretty! Come back Amy!!!!!!!!!!
Perez
Love this music! Thanks for bringing it to our attention. You should also listen to Foolish - Original Version.
he is seriously amazing
He does not sound like Robyn Thicke. Ew! No blue eyed soul there.
THIS SONG IS A RIP OFF FROM ANOTHER. CAN'T THINK OF WHAT IT IS RIGHT NOW. HE'S TAKEN BITS AND PIECES AS MOST MUSICIANS DO.
Great find Perez. U rock!
That was NOT blue eyed soul.
He cant have ripped anyone off, he released all these songs like 3/4 years ago. He was the original winehouse style bt ppl just didnt appreciate it at the time
Wow! That was some great singing. She should make some more duets with him.
For once I disagree with Papa Perez. This kid sounds like a whiny bitch and shit all over my favorite song. White Town can't be covered….especially not by anyone associated with Shamy Winehouse, jeesh.
Erm, has some management company got you to put that up? He's her gay best friend, not her ex. He's just a much cleaner looking junkie than her husband. And music? It's dreary fluff at best mate.
Why are people so obsessed with White singers trying to sing Black. How about covering legitimate Black soul singers who don't get mainstream media coverage. It is only fair.
Re: TamTam – I absolutely love Tyler. He is amazing. You should get over the hole racist thing. Music doesn't belong to a particular race.
He sounds like a male Amy singing… But he sure is fine! No wonder she is hitting it again lol
Thank you, for posting this. Tyler James deserves some attention and he should be known for his amazing voice. He is really hot and I can't believe why no one will give him a record deal. I would buy his album immediately
I worked in Virgin Megastores in Bishopsagate in London about 3 years ago and Tyler James came in with a record exec and bought up a heep of his singles - he was a big dirty ride then, but I figured he would go nowhere.
Obviously the record company have continued to look after him!

OMG his stuff came out probably 3 or 4 years ago here in the UK!
and I saw him supporting McFly back then too,
he's fantastic.
had no idea he dated Amy Winehous though, but it was before she hit the big time.
I love him. (:
OMG how do you go from this specimen of yumminess to a crudty junky like Blake Civil Fielder? Such a cutie!
I hope he's "BEING THERE" for her lots right now. A girl has needs!!!

OMG!
I looooooovvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeee Tyler James!
He is amazing!
You should hear the intro on his album, rainy days.
Unreal!
his voice makes me go all tingly!
Make him bring out another album!
Work some magic Perez!!
Pllllllleeeeeeeaaaaaaaassssssseeeeeeee!!
Hes sooooo gorgeous!!!!
Hi Perez, I'm from England and I'm a huge fan of Tyler James - his music is amazing, all the songs you recommended are great as well but you should listen to his song 'Foolish' - it's one of my favourites! I go to a proper English boarding school which can get crazy at times but the only thing that keeps me sane is escaping to read your page everyday!! You are amazing xxxx
i know this guy.. hes hot.. and he is gay
Re: loveit – What? How do you know that?
Ive seen him live a couple of times and he's dead good, he can put on a show.
He supported a band called McFly that are big over here in the UK and so i saw him there, he seems like a nice guy aswell…and fit.
Tyler James has been around in the UK for yeeaaaarrrrsss. Keep up P.
these songs are old…he's been out in the UK 4 ages now but ain't heard any songs from him for a while now

The first song sucks … the rest are pretty good. He's gonna be the next big thing in the states.
I definitely like his sound but I would not call him the Britsh Robin Thicke…..there is no comparison.
He sounds like shit. Perez this is not good music and please do not ever compare him to Robin Thicke. He sounds like crap, whiney, like a teenage boy. I don't know who has been influencing your music picks lately but you need to fire them, foreal.
And you dumb bitches please stop letting his "looks" blind you from the crappy sound of his music.
CAN YOU SAY HOTTIE!
i love tyler james… i saw him support mcfly a few years ago… and lots of people were saying he was a minger but let me tell you he is lush… and his music is brill… just google him… it took me ages to find some of his stuff… ive got his albums and i love it… i hope he tours soon!
tyler james was the bomb! but he got dropped by his record label thanx to amy he might get signed again! she's good for soming!
The man is a god. I have ben a fan since he first appeared on the scene. I just wish there was more of it.
I dont think he sounds anything like Robin Thicke. I do agree that he has an amazing sound, why is that British people kick our ass at singin our own shit?
HE DATED THAT UGLY HORSE AMY WHINEHOUSE??????????????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
wouldn't listen to him, but i'd surely do him.
I'm sorry Perez but that boy can't sing, he sounds like an American Idol reject! Surely you are just blinded by the pretty!
i really like the version of your woman, but isnt he singing froma girls point of view? isnt that a little messed up?
he supported mcfly in the uk in 2005!! good times!! he's really good:) xx
great voice! very handsome too…
shit.
i'd love to have HIM for my birthday…rawrrr baby, Wino got a taste of THAT?!
good girl!
i think i'm in love…his voice is cute too!
I don't think Tyler James is good. His voice is amateur at best.
Perhaps he sounds better live or something.
Amy Winehouse is the true singer here. Hopefully she will clean herself up and divorce that nasty white boy. Or perhaps he will die of a heroin overdose first.
He has a great voice and very easy on the eyes! I hope he didn't have a !@# relationship w/Amy Winehouse - yuck! By the way…what's with the British and their bad teeth?
Perez honey, ya got this one wrong
He's def NO Robin Thicke
Amy and Blake are both FUGLY and belong together! What the hell did this CUTEY PIE ever see in her? Thank God he is no longer with her! Yuck!
bit old, bit slack arent we perez, get with it this guy's been out 4 ages
Tyler James was out in the UK 3 years ago he failed to make his mark. I loved him…you have good taste for once Perez x
His stuff has been out since 2005….
He looks like Andrew McCarthy, (Weekend at Bernie's) Very handsome:)
Ummm…no. Robin Thicke is for the grown and sexy. This guy is more like Justin Timberlake - for the kiddies and the birds.
The duet isn't bad. The first song was straight ass.
EEE! I love his music, been a fan for AGES!
Though I still need his album, it's only on sale as a download on the UK iTunes. And I'd rather have a physical copy rather than a download. =|
