If the Canadian music industry took its time waking up to hip-hop, it's still in a deep sleep when it comes to homegrown R&B. Crooner Glenn Lewis banged his head against the wall for years in his home town of Toronto without a hint of recognition before finally decamping to Philadelphia and promptly signing a major-label deal. Lewis's debut, 2002's World Outside My Window, is a big-budget epic that bridges the gap between gooey R&B and the neo-soul of D'Angelo and Maxwell. Drenched in strings and warm, elaborate production, tracks like "Don't You Forget It," "Simple Things," and "It's Not Fair" eschew worn-out R&B clichés while still drawing on the soulful roots of the genre. Nowhere is this heard better than in Lewis's own voice, a smooth Stevie Wonder sound-alike that's already got the nod from the man himself. Now if Lewis could only get that respect in Canada. --Matt Galloway

5 out of 5 stars World outside my window.......2007-05-15

I heard this song "something to see" for the first time online, I love the song and the artist, this was a nice cd.

I actually was surprised at how great this cd was, i am used to all the rnb artists all sound the same. this cd makes you pay attention to good talent.If you don't have it you should.

3 out of 5 stars Canadian Soul.......2006-11-21

The lead single that introduced Glenn Lewis to most listeners was "Don't You Forget It" and yes it does sound like some great lost Stevie Wonder track. With that said however, he really does have his own distinctive and versatile voice. Check out track 4, "Something To See". He sings in a creamy falsetto over a gentle accoustic background that is completely different and nothing like the Wonderman. He writes subtle, likeable melodies usually with 2 or 3 songwriting partners, 2 of whom are his(and Jill Scott's) producers,Andre Harris and Vidal Davis. On the opening song he sings of "Simple Things" like "a day to relax, the sensation of climax". He does indeed keep things simple throughout and his consistently low key approach could be what kept this album from achieving blockbuster status. This is a strong debut from an authentic R&B crooner, I hope he gets more listeners next time out. He's got critical and cult respect, now he deserves some damn success.

5 out of 5 stars a STEVIE WONDER , " CLONE" .......2006-01-07

Wow! this guy must have dedicated his whole life into being like Stevie Wonder,. when I first heard the first single. "don't you forget it" . I thought motown had went deep into its old vaults and brought out some old unreleased material by Stevie from days gone by.. but its really a nice album by Glenn Lewis. I mean he really done a good job , in really sounding like Stevie!!!. .Everyone knows what a music genious Stevie Wonder is. . my only disappointment, came when I found that this guy wasn't Stevie. But still its a great c.d. worth buying.

5 out of 5 stars If you like this genre just buy it!.......2005-09-20

I was waiting to buy this album after readyng a good critic review on 2004, but never found on regular stores on Italy.
Now I regret to not have buyed it before, even at high import price!
One of the best 2004 album on what some call "neo soul" but there this definition is reductive, the songs are the right combination of soul-r'n'b-pop that could please a lot of people.
This could be a minus for some but definitely a plus for more.
I only just repeat: if you like this genre just buy it!
