5.0 out of 5 stars Best CD ever, June 30, 2001

By	"robfromri" (Rhode Island) - See all my reviews

I truly believe that this is the best CD produced in many years. Bobby reminds me of Frank Sinatra. I STRONGLY urge you to get this CD. It has helped me get through some difficeult times. Song #15 "Good to Me" has brought tears to the 32 year old "tough guy's" eyes. Song #9 'Once upon a Time" is extremely romantic and sentemental. Play this CD in the presence of someone special. I originally bought the CD for "What you won't do for Love", but I fell in love with every selection. The remake of what you won't do for love originally disappointed me but it has grown on me so much that I prefer it to the original. I only wish mr. Caldwell would go on tour in the US.

5.0 out of 5 stars Mesmerized, October 19, 2001

By	john907 "john907" (Jakarta, Indonesia) - See all my reviews

What a discovery! I vaguely remember Bobby Caldwell from my sixth grade days, back in 1991, when he did a duet with Marilyn Scott, "Back to You". That song was just beautiful and timeless. Then recently, I heard "Real Thing" on the radio, and I instantly fell in love with it and can't stop playing it in my head! I did some research on the net, and found out that he has released many albums before, even before I was born... So I ran to the nearest CD store, and bought Timeline (too bad his CDs are hard to find here), so that way I get to hear all the greatest hits from him... And what a great CD it is!

Here's some of my favorites:
1. Real Thing: no wonder it's a big hit, especially here in Asia. It's very catchy and very uplifting.
2. Don't Ask My Neighbor: a great song, you can't help but sing along.
3. Let It Be Me: another classic song, but it's different when Bobby sing it.
4. Once upon a Time: a very romantic song, just listen to the melody.
5. Don't Lead Me On: a unique "doo-wop" style, we don't hear it often nowadays.
6. Baby, It's Cold Outside: a marvelous duet between Bobby and Vanessa Williams, another uplifting song.
7. Good to Me: a brand new song and a very touching one.

But these are just some of his masterpieces. To get the "real thing", you simply MUST BUY this CD! You won't regret it!

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm stuck on Bobby Caldwell, March 16, 2000

By	Carolyn D. (Dallas, TX) - See all my reviews

After buying this CD, I am now a great fan of Bobby Caldwell. His style is romantic and sensual, but with a bit of the big band feel. There is not one song on this CD that I don't like; "My Flame" and "Baby, It's Cold Outside" (with Vanessa Williams), are just two of the fabulous songs from this collection!
