Dec 27, 2013This is a fantastic album and he not only looks better than Michael buble but sounds better too, check it out for yourself. A brilliant entertainer and singer.

Dec 30, 2013Robbie's back with the swing music, and here we can see a lot more of Robbie himself. The other one was more of him paying tribute to legends of swing. Fantastic and consistent.

Dec 30, 2013Most of songs are written by the artist himself and, as usual, very personal. Playing with haters, fatherhood and other situations this sounds very fun and consistent, some songs like "Shine My Shoes" are just brilliant. The vocals are way better than his 3 previously works too.

Dec 17, 2013There's an innate problem in the way Swings Both Ways swings--like a pendulum, flipping and flopping between 2013 and 1953, a problem that the orchestra can't resolve.

MojoDec 17, 2013Of seven swing covers and duets, only the high camp title track with Rufus Wainwright sparkles. [Dec 2013, p.92]

Dec 17, 2013It's the original tracks that bring a new life to the form, while the standards--routine duets of "I Wanna Be Like You" and "Dream a Little Dream" with Olly Murs and Lily Allen, and a bland "Puttin' on the Ritz"-- sound like filler.
