iTunes Review

Bruno Mars (a.k.a. Peter Hernandez) is a musical renaissance man with his fingers in an amazing number of pies (most of them sweet and ultra-tasty). Mars has an ear for the trends of the moment, but he’s also fluent in old-school methods of songwriting and production. “Just the Way You Are” (the album’s chart-topping advance single), “Talking to the Moon” and “Our First Time” are suave slices of R&B/pop with finely-honed hooks. On “Count on Me” and “The Lazy Song,” Mars eases into a mellow folk groove worthy of Jason Mraz. Stretching out further, he dives into a ’60-style soul rave-up (“Runaway Baby”) and has a fling with classic summertime pop (“Marry You”). There’s a Jamaican vibe present as well, especially in the dub-drenched “Liquor Store Blues.” “The Other Side” — a collaboration with Cee-Lo and B.o.B. — rides an urgent track punctuated with wolf howls. Mars handles the instrumental duties as well as the lead vocals here, bringing a unified feel to this eclectic, high-energy and altogether delightful effort.

Exceeds Expectations

After hearing his work on "Billionaire" and "Nothing On You," I had very high expectations for Bruno Mars. When "Just the Way You Are" was released, I was at first left a little flat by what I deemed generic lyrics and production, but after a few spins, even I couldn't deny its soaring melodies and catchy hooks. So then I waited... hoping (and wishing) for more originality and diversity on the full album, that would properly showcase a clearly talented young vocalist and performer. I am very glad to say that Bruno Mars has delivered exactly that. This album is an all-around great effort from Mars, with well-written songs and polished production, that helps him stand out from his pop contemporaries while still maintaining the immediately likable pop sensibility that originally drew me (and arguably all of us who first heard his voice on the radio) to him.

New King of Pop?

I think that Bruno Mars could very well be the Michael Jackson of this generation. They sound uncannily alike in Grenade, his songs are pop and catchy, like many of Michael's early hits, and they have a similar higher-pitched voice with a beautiful melodic tone to it. If you are as big of a fan of both as I am, you know I'm on to something. :)

TEAM BRUNO MARS!

love the songs, Grenade, Just the Way You Are, Marry You and Talking to the Moon. and of course, Bruno Mars himself.
fantastic.
