Colton serves this album with a little bit of this and a little bit of that. This album is far from a boring session of songs that sound the same. Colton's voice is top shelf with the melodies that follow. There are songs here to dance to as well as songs to chill to with your special someone. There are even some head nodders too. Whatever you do you will not be standing still. I can't say which of the songs are my favorite because I like them all. This is one album that you can play from start to finish without skipping a beat. It's not very often that one can do that. I buy many CDs and there are many of them that I do skip songs on. But not this one. There is a song to fit every mood and occasion. I am sure that the remixes will be awesome as well. "The Way You Love Me" has remixes available now and they are hot! Mr. Ford serves you a flavor that is all his own. Embrace it.

Do yourselves a favor...purchase this fantastic album. You will be glad you did.

I ordered this mistakenly-thought I was ordering Colt Ford. Oh yeah, there is a BIG difference. May be alright for teeney bopper girls, but definitely not for grown men.

Tug of War was surprisingly good considering Colton Ford isn't exactly known for his music. The first half of the CD is a nice blend of dance rhythms, but the second half has too many ballads for my taste. Also, the single "That's Me" is a lot better with the Caswell rap during the breakdown, like the video. But overall a good CD that's much better than expected!

Not a big ballad fan, but I love some of the upbeat vibes on this CD, and Colton's voice is so sexy and sultry. Dang, the song "That's Me" needs to be released as a CD single with club mixes--it's got a fantastic old school Liberty City "Some Lovin" deep house Murk groove circa 1992.

Some nice surprises here -- "Tug of War" is a sultry winner with some great falsetto work (just steer clear of the shorter remix, a horrible cheesy dance fluff confection) -- but the album isn't a complete success because it's weighted down with too many generic, forgettable ballads. Even some of the upbeat numbers lack originality or a strong melodic line. Still, Ford shows promise, and I hope that he searches out better material.
