Listen To This: The British Robin Thicke

Filed under: Anglophilia > Amy Winehouse > Listen To This

423906955_l.jpg

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!!!!

    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.

    106

    Hi Perez!! lovin your work but in fact Tyler James is gay!!!!

  7. Wally says – reply to this


    107

    The original version of the song is by far much better than his. Try listening to White town´s original.
    See ya!

  8. Alexa G says – reply to this


    108

    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!!

  9. bloomzy says – reply to this


    109

    'Foolish' is his best hit to date.

  10. M&M says – reply to this


    110

    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.

    115

    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.

  16. Shaz says – reply to this


    116

    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.

  17. Gemma says – reply to this


    117

    '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.

  18. wowsey says – reply to this


    118

    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.

  20. FunRide71 says – reply to this


    120

    "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.

  21. Lololala says – reply to this


    121

    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.

    i saw this guy in a gay bar in london TONIGHT, believe it or not. i always thought he was gay too.

    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?

    OMG… I remember that song Your Woman… it came out when I was in middle school. Cool remake!

  37. Jessica says – reply to this


    137

    Wow…this guy makes Blake look like an even bigger downgrade. Didn't think it was possible really.

  38. WRONGPEREZ!!! says – reply to this


    138

    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.

  39. Kelli says – reply to this


    139

    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.

  40. Marielle says – reply to this

    …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.

  43. allthatjazz says – reply to this

    he is seriously amazing

  44. T Money says – reply to this


    144

    He does not sound like Robyn Thicke. Ew! No blue eyed soul there.

  45. OLDLADY says – reply to this


    145

    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.

  46. MishelmyBelle says – reply to this


    146

    Great find Perez. U rock!

  47. hagget says – reply to this

    That was NOT blue eyed soul.

  48. nbougte says – reply to this


    148

    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

  49. Bree says – reply to this


    149

    Wow! That was some great singing. She should make some more duets with him.

  50. GIORGI says – reply to this


    150

    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.

  51. Toilet says – reply to this


    151

    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.

  52. TamTam says – reply to this


    152

    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.

  53. Sill says – reply to this


    153

    Re: TamTamI absolutely love Tyler. He is amazing. You should get over the hole racist thing. Music doesn't belong to a particular race. ;)

  54. mpauls says – reply to this


    154

    He sounds like a male Amy singing… But he sure is fine! No wonder she is hitting it again lol

  55. Billy says – reply to this


    155

    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 :)

  56. josiegrosie says – reply to this


    156

    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. (:

    163

    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

  72. Tasha says – reply to this


    172

    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.

    i think i'm in love…his voice is cute too!

  85. Brad says – reply to this


    185

    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.

  86. Rosie says – reply to this


    186

    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?

    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.

  94. Katie says – reply to this


    194

    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. =|
