    As expected, his voice once again dominates. The production is also worth a mention. It's a highly enjoyable album, it's just a shame it's about 5 OTT ballads too long. The drawn out ending somewhat ruins the highly enjoyable beginning.
    Still, the majority of the album is good and well worth a listen for any pop fan.

    Half of the album is utterly brilliant. The likes of 'Cuckoo', 'Shady' and other upbeat numbers demand attention. Sadly, the other half of the album contains far too many ballads, which - even with his incredible voice - make the album slightly boring towards the end.

    This album I have in the media library for a long time. Now I decided to write a review.
    After my maximum listening to this album, I immediately divided it into 2 parts. The first part is stuffed with pop motives, and the second part is deep and sincere, actually because of which I fell in love with this album.

    The album is fanciful with its sweetness, it's very difficult to listen to it for a long time.    … Expand

    Trespassing is magnificent is its competence, but sadly, it doesn't appear to have an actual beating heart in it anywhere. [Aug 2012, p.102]

    If few of the songs are classics, his octave-leaping voice is often a showstopper.

    Trespassing isn't a totally cogent statement. Lambert suffers from a lack of restraint, while the second half of the album lags. But you have to admire Lambert's ability to go over the top and then ratchet higher still.
