This blows my mind how I used to bump this when it first dropped. Not paying attention to the artist name. It randomly popped up in my head right now... I search for the song and....I had no idea it was Robin Thicke smh
Dude I always loved this song. Never knew who this guy was. And thought he died out. After seeing the sprite commercial. Little did I know it was ROBIN THICKE. His album was called thicke. Mind was blown. This whole time i didn't know
I was in HS when this dropped. I remember hearing it and loving it! Then I saw who sang it and I was completely shocked. He looked like someone from the grunge rock scene singing R&B. So dope! Long time supporter of this dude even in the midst of his personal life. Great voice!
Steph H I was 14 in 03 but I remember the sprite commercial with this song. The only thing is I felt this song was much older than 03 more so Year 2000.
This song LITERALLY popped into my head today. Took me an hour to find it as I was 6 when it came out and obviously heard it a few times during the years after. Good vibes!!!!!!
The radio channel I usually listen to had a crossover with a classic channel from the same company and Beethoven's fifth came on and it got me thinking of this song again. Drove me nuts all day at work that I couldn't find anything but the original piece from Walter Murphy. Then, just when I was about to sleep, some random lyrics popped in my head and now I finally have some inner peace 😂
sux2bu2day he said back then that he wouldn't cut his hair until he finally made it. That's why it was so long when he made this video. The short style that people are used to was the way he always wore it before this period of his career and he returned to it once he reached his goal.
That's what happens when mainstream media and society take over your soul and turn you into 1 of them instead of leaving you alone to be your own unique person
This song takes me back to getting ready for high school and watching MTV/VH1 in the morning for music videos. To think that Lost Without You would be the next hit (that I remember) to come out by him is mind blowing because I didn’t put the two together for years. Genius transition from Pop/Soul to RnB/Pop. Def one of my favorite songs and artists.
I remember when a guy who looked like this came up to me in a mall in indiana and handed me this single... Still have it in my cds. Always wondered if it was Robin Thicke himself.
4 years I could never remember who did this song or the name of it. Imagine my surprise when stumbling through robin thick's songs and I see this video. Its a gem.
Dammit I just listened to this song 8 times and still haven't gotten enough of it. Oh well I just keep replaying it then. Thanks Robin Thicke - Your music is energizingly awesome!!
Remember when he only went by Thicke lol! Rocked this joint out! Loved the video concept too! Shout out to all the bike messengers out there. Eyes open n ride safe y'all! 🙏🤘✌️
You really do need to believe in love unless of course you dont care what love says and then you'll get off your ass and respond to this comment not caring what love says and brave enough to say it
This song was and still is DA BOMB! The first time I had heard of Robin. I remember seeing this video and buying the CD. I still have it to this day. BLUE EYED SOUL as it's FINEST!!!
I have played this track and watched this video a million times over the years (GET A LIFE) I know... but this track is such a part of my memory with the video. It's just electrifying... I will always love Robin Thicke for this track...
I remember listening to this virtually on repeat for several days solid, this and the likes of the later 'Get Lucky' by Daft Punk are two nostalgia filled tunes and remind me of far better times in life.
I'm so glad the official music video for this song is finally on UA-cam. Best Thicke song ever! I still remember the first time I saw this video on MTV back when it first dropped. Excellent video concept for an excellent song. Super old school. I miss that hair!
A true artist, his talent and sheer joy just oozes on this track and there's so much to appreciate! Am blown away by the vocal confidence, drive, tones, command of tempo and lyrical punch-he totally K.O. owns it! That voice..those strings..that bass..those drums!! And this at the start of his recording career no less! Pure boogie-on-down track..so utterly addictive and in my humble estimation..a sleeping masterpiece! Re the video..so left-field and ahead of the game..he's just soaking it all in and loving it!!
Yes ! I remember reading about you in VIBE magazine when you first came out as a singer and it took forever for this album to hit the shelves . I remember that the original title of the album was gonna be Cherry Blue Skies ! God, i need a life.
I remember this video. I knew he was gonna be big. I always thought to myself who is this soulful wyte boy?? I didn’t even know he was Allen Thicke’s son at the time. Love me some him!❤❤❤
@@markyancey3086 Actually he was signed to Motown through Harrell Entertainment....he was the first act that Andre signed when he left Uptown to run Motown in the early 2000's!
The same, but the music video and his image gave me an immediate major "one hit wonder" vibe. Sorry to say it, but image and attitude is vey important in the industry. I was surprised when he released his second LP, but then I knew he was going to be big, cause his image had changed and he had signed to Star Trek/Pharrell.
I remember when this came out and i first heard it on 106 and park. It made the top 10 and i couldnt wait to get home from school to see if he made number 1. Love this song.
Omg, so I have been living under a rock all these years and never made the connection that this song was by Robin Thicke! This came out towards the end of my high school days, I remember the clip, really enjoyed the song but yeah...hahaha wow, mind blown 🤯🤯🤯 Massive image reinvention!
Here comes strong. Its a very strong sounstage looking in New York real hard tall with the mainstream of all that is. The traffick is so cooperative and rhythmic with his song. Smiles. Love his belt, his hair, his dance moves in the office. Surprising in the setting and dress style He's in. Nice job!.
This song has been an ear worm of mine for over 20 years. I saw the video back in the day but could never remember the song name or the singer. I’ve obsessed over trying to rediscover it. Today, I finally found it again and was shocked when I found out this was ROBIN THICKE the whole time WTF 🤯
I came here after watching a video by Sloan.. I've got to say tho This song is amazing! I can't see why it didn't become a big hit. Things might have been different.
This song for all of us who did cool stuff racing around town on a bike and had the tunes going..it takes a special kind of courage to do that so mad respect to all my brothers and sisters. Put me down for riding with this song going. ha ha.... Like if you saw us. Comment if you did it..
This song is still a BOP for me. I remember I used to try to put people on to this song & Robin but they were not feeling me😅 But look at Robin now lol
This song is seriously underrated. Absolute banger. It’s aged really well imo.
Yesss! This song was AND STILL 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Absolutely. ❤
A GEM this song made me a fan
Because Beethoven was a genius 🤓
Absolutely awesome 👍🏽😎
One thing that stands out to me is how happy he was.
Kind of sad. He was still with Paula during this time I think. I wish they will get back together.
He was young and naïve even his hair was longer.
young creative and unspoiled ;)
He was constantly thinking that his dad is Alan Thicke and that kept him smiling through out the video.
@@bullet31💀💀🤣🤣🤣
I hate that people forgot that THIS was Robin's first single.
lol right just asked my sister and she said she doesn’t remember
I forgot until he first started singing. I even remember the lyrics 😂
@@shesinsports😊
Wow!?!😬Hate??!!
No it ain't 😂 this was released in 2013
Whoever threw that Beethoven in there is a complete genius! Still jammin this in 2024, song is severely underrated imo❤
This blows my mind how I used to bump this when it first dropped.
Not paying attention to the artist name.
It randomly popped up in my head right now...
I search for the song and....I had no idea it was Robin Thicke smh
It’s actually “a fifth of Beethoven” by Walter Murphy.
ua-cam.com/video/0ouMaLRth-s/v-deo.htmlsi=BL2IQved8fZIVT3p
Nope
Tell me about it! This song didn’t get anywhere near enough recognition
He was so smooth in this. He wasn’t even trying. ❤
This got tons of play overseas, not sure why it fell on deaf ears in the states. Such an incredible tune.
Huge in 🇦🇺 I loved it bought the CD back in highschool
it was like something from jamiroquai...they just weren't ready. LOL
Not in the UK it didn't. Never got played here.
@@silvershadow7655 It was always on MTV at the time but no, not on the radio that I recall
When I heard this, I remember thinking this singer has potential...
I miss this thicke. one of my favorite song he ever did
This was and still is my jam
Same..omg I so remember this summer.
LeaLe Novak he meant when this was his element.
Indeed!!! This was doooooope!! 90s style. Using his natural voice, no falsetto on the entire song.
So right me too!
🗣 IM NOT LEAVING!! TILL YOURE LEAVING!!
See this is still what I think of when I think of Robin Thicke. I was OBSESSED with this song.
Me too!!
Yup still 2024❤❤
I miss this NYC. I miss this era period.
When America truly was the greatest country in the world. Now they are lucky to be top 10
The same as me
Same
I was a bartender in NYC when this album dropped and I played it all the time in the bar. Good times.
Lol Amerikkka was never great@@Tom-yu9if
Dude I always loved this song. Never knew who this guy was. And thought he died out. After seeing the sprite commercial. Little did I know it was ROBIN THICKE. His album was called thicke. Mind was blown. This whole time i didn't know
Karim Jovian Vlogs wowsame didn’t realise and I love this song
I think this song is from his "Cherry Blue Sky" album.
@@ratbatnufftime2861 It's from his debut, "A Beautiful World".
It's called "A Beautiful World", not "Thicke".
I heard this song on the radio. I always wondered who it was.

I bought this CD in highschool too. Reminded me how moby and all that grunge music would be the opposite of glam. Relatable music vids. Anyway
I always thought this song had a kind of a Michael Jackson vibe to it. Even the way he moves in this video is very Michael Jackson
I was about 18 when this came out.. And he was in a Sprite commercial with this song
Steph H I was 14 in 03 but I remember the sprite commercial with this song. The only thing is I felt this song was much older than 03 more so Year 2000.
Me too very shocked what the singer looked like
Sooooooo underrated ...this song is straight soul
Mikal Black Look up “A Fifth of Beethoven” by Walter Murphy. That song came out in the 70’s.
This song is not straight soul, it's fake soul, but a nice song. You have no clue what real soul music is.
And that's TRUTH! 👍🏻
watery black pepper gravy powder. Just Add water and stir. This is not soul, sorry not sorry, to awake you from your "white soul music" dream 🙄
@@HumanBeFly BITCH! its not a dream and if it was WHY IS yo ass here??? Move around with your ignorant bland opinion!!

I played the ish outta this when it came out. I still do! Go head’ Robin… go head’!!
I remember when this song came out. Totally different image and persona than the Robin Thicke we’ve come to know.
sux2bu2day he said back then that he wouldn't cut his hair until he finally made it. That's why it was so long when he made this video. The short style that people are used to was the way he always wore it before this period of his career and he returned to it once he reached his goal.
That's what happens when mainstream media and society take over your soul and turn you into 1 of them instead of leaving you alone to be your own unique person
This is 2018...and I never ever knew it was the same person.
Appearance is everything in showbiz...he is a talented man regardless of his looks.
He still dope. Still makes dope music.
This song takes me back to getting ready for high school and watching MTV/VH1 in the morning for music videos. To think that Lost Without You would be the next hit (that I remember) to come out by him is mind blowing because I didn’t put the two together for years.
Genius transition from Pop/Soul to RnB/Pop. Def one of my favorite songs and artists.
Me too I was senior when this came out
Yes getting ready fa school mtv/ VH1 memories mann 🥹😔
Me either absolutely loved this song in high school never realized it was him ! 🎉
Wanna love you was the next hit
When Robin thicke was hungry 💪🏼💪🏼
😂😂😂
Facts
I forgot how much I loved this song
I miss this version of Robin Thicke💕
I love the fact that back in the day it was not about looks and fashion it was about attitude
lisa delbois lol 2003 was very much about looks and fashion.
But he LOOKED better back then. Fashion and grooming is ugly as hell now.
Yeah cos he's really ugly and doesn't dress at all like a 90's pop star
Ummm, Robin was fine as hell back then...and still is! Plus, this wasn’t that long ago. You must be hella young.
he was even a prancer 'back in the day'
Can’t believe this is my first time hearing this song, or seeing Robin with long hair and not dressed up. Love this song
Mine was today😮❤😂
This was the Robin I fell in love with!
Me too
Exactly!!
Me too...and I’m still in love. 😍
Omg yes.same with me.i miss this guy
Same
Maaan. I hear elements of Michael, Prince, Jagger, 70s Funk, Disco, and obviously Classical, Beethoven
I heard a little bit of Jamiroquai like style
@@BlackEagle510and a little JT
Yes I agree
Stevie all the way.
This is timeless. I was like 10 when this came out and it never stops playing in my head. Seriously.
Bruh, you were 7
@@powderedphantom5765 🤣LOL
I’m 34 now. This song still makes me feel the way it did when I first heard it...
Woah...Haven't heard this in years!! What a jam! 🔥🔥🔥
Only Robin Thicke can put a spin on fifth of Beethoven and make it timeless. When I get you alone
I remember back in 00s this was such a hit... today in 2022, 20 years later I finally found it!!
The real Thicke. The Thicke we loved 💞
Heard it first on Glee , by Blaine, ( Darren Criss ) , wanted to see who sang original. Never knew would be Thicke
Believe it or not the track was a cover of a 70's song who obviously covered Beethoven.

I remember when a guy who looked like this came up to me in a mall in indiana and handed me this single... Still have it in my cds. Always wondered if it was Robin Thicke himself.
OMG!
It was him.
Lmao. 😂it was
this slaps harder than anything else in his entire discography
It slaps harder than 90% of what's out there nowadays.
Facts!
Agreed
@@MickMcGarnackle agree again
I’m a kid born in the 2000s and I listen to 70s/80s/90s music and I always have, due to me really not liking the music of today
Oh just LOVE Thicke's hair...😍.
Sure wish he'd grow it out again...🤩🤩🤩!
We were robbed of shaggy haired, slapping sample, bike ridin', surfer dude style thickie!!!!
Predatory suave thicke never hit right cos its not him 😂
He should’ve kept this style.
You’re right, we were robbed.
I liked this hungry Robin Thicke, He went all in.
Avslappnande Ljud Att Sova Till So True. I don’t know what happened to him other than maybe the fame going to his head.
Avslappnande Ljud Att Sova Till this whole album was fire 🔥 but no one knows 😩
Avslappnande Ljud Att Sova Till 🙌🙌
This album didn’t sell though, he tried something else and it worked
I do too liked this one much better!
I never knew Orlando Bloom was a singing courier before he was an actor
Made my day😂☝

This is the song, that brought me to Robin Thicke. Incredible! Greetings from Germany!
1970's Robin rockin the hippie look ?!?😊😅🎉❤❤Disco Dude
getting me alone !!😮
He’s definitely got a great vibe and straight undeniable talent! Thanks for the beat!
'Ima be alright' is also good
I'm there with you rocking this music in 2024.
this song was actually super good
What do mean was
Nice
4 years I could never remember who did this song or the name of it. Imagine my surprise when stumbling through robin thick's songs and I see this video. Its a gem.
When this debuted I thought, damn blue eyed soul sound!!! And Timberlake had some competition. Still a bop in 2024!!!!

This song was/is Genius!!! One of my all time favs! 🙌🏽🔥😍🔥🙌🏽
How did he not reach his 2013 fame level with this song? This song is so much better and far less insulting to women than Blurred Lines.
I never understood it either. I remember when this came out and I would jam to it but nobody else seemed to catch onto it
This was way before blurred lines; about a decade.
Omg lol so PC
Oh my God, can you shut up! women are insulting to men all the time... we live in a free country.
@@deaundrebondscheeks2 ok and? Doesn't mean it's ok

And this at the start of his recording career no less! Pure boogie-on-down track..so utterly addictive and in my humble estimation..a sleeping masterpiece!

*Thicke* with long _fabulous_ hair
This song has been stuck in my head for years!!!
I used to dream of this job because of this video and this track! 14 years ago when I was 16. Still one of the best tracks! 🎶
This song was huge
Heard this on Glee, never knew it was Robin, love the look and the best and lyrics are sick, great songs
This song has been an ear worm of mine for over 20 years. I saw the video back in the day but could never remember the song name or the singer. I’ve obsessed over trying to rediscover it. Today, I finally found it again and was shocked when I found out this was ROBIN THICKE the whole time WTF 🤯
Song is almost 20 years old, I remember having this album and Remy Shand’s debut on repeat.
Don’t get me STARTED on Remy Shands debut OMG!
I wish Remy made more music...dude was a throwback and ahead of his time.
He's kinds rocking MJ moves man! Totally shameless with the hair and skater outfit. Looks like a cool Jesus ! Awesome
My kind of man, I love these type of long hair hippie looking white men.
He was a whole vibe apparently. I missed it
I love this song. This is before he got really famous. Loved the hair!!!
I came here after watching a video by Sloan.. I've got to say tho This song is amazing! I can't see why it didn't become a big hit. Things might have been different.
I still love this song..Robin did this😍
This still slaps. No matter if I got Spotify, Apple Music, UA-cam music, this song will always be in some sort of rotation
i remember when this song 1st came out, i liked the feel of the song and his voice was refreshing. still my favorite song of his
This song literally woke me out of my sleep when it first came out. And I've loved him ever since!
Alan thicke is the real mastermind
This song for all of us who did cool stuff racing around town on a bike
and had the tunes going..it takes a special kind of courage to do that so mad respect to all my brothers and sisters.
Put me down for riding with this song going. ha ha....
Like if you saw us.
Comment if you did it..
A Beautiful World will always be my favorite album. It was artistically raw and inspiring
Yeah it feels just like this...when you're young especially. Straight up urgent desire. I love the feeling.
I was watching Judge Judy and this popped in to my head.
A great throwback Thursday.
First time seeing this. From UK and don't think this hit our shores as I would have remembered. The video and song are underrated
I first saw it when I lived in the UK, when it came out. It just didn't crack it huge there.
It was like he used this song to capture the R&B audience and we've never let him go since.
This song has been in my head for days now! Loved it back then and still love it now 💜💜💜💜
This song is still a BOP for me. I remember I used to try to put people on to this song & Robin but they were not feeling me😅 But look at Robin now lol
Unfortunately only this lofi video on youtube. Such a great song.
Loved this song
I love this song he is really singing with soul showing his singing chops... I remember this song from Early 2000 I remember this man can sang
