第四张专辑，等待了2年。05年的《The Story Goes...》让人感觉到柔情的R&B情调，是Craig David三张专辑当中最情字当头的一张专辑，够打动人。Craig David 的第四张专辑《Trust Me》，Craig David 特地跑到古巴的哈瓦那去做录制。制作人是Martin Terefe (KT Tunstall, James Morrison)和Fraser T. Smith(Kano, Beyonce, Plan B, Jamelia)。在古巴录制，当然会受到当地的民俗风情的影响，新专辑中也有加入古巴式的传统音乐风情，如一些合声，一些旋律以及一些鼓点等等，其中最为反映的是“She's On Fire”。首只单曲“Hot Stuff (Let's Dance)”在10月5号发行了，Craig David 在这只单曲中采用了David Bowie的歌曲Let's Dance的一些小样。其实最早公布的单曲是“This Is The Girl”，这只单曲早在8月份就公布了，是Craig David和他的同门师兄第Kano一样合作的歌曲。在听完整张专辑后，依然感觉05年的《The Story Goes...》是最具有情调的，当然这只是个人喜好问题。对于这四张专辑《Trust Me》，看做是Craig David再一次的灵感宣泄。

个人感觉，专辑里的许多歌都已经没有了Craig的曲风，到是充满了美国式的流行元素。让我的期待，多少变成了失望。不知道是Craig刻意要走国际化的道路，还是有意去尝试新的风格。本人还是较喜欢他的R&B风格，因为这是他的与众不同。这里推荐专辑里还保有原风格的一首。

Officially yours

Ohhh Yeah Yeah
La Da De, La Da De, La Da Da Da Da Do
Thinking how the story goes helpless and wishing
Put the film inside my mind but there's a big scene that im missing
As i reread my lines, I think said this, I should've said that
Did you edit me out of your mind, cause in a flash you would disapper gone (gone)
Before the curtain falls and we act this out again
Maybe i should risk it all and state that
I'm officially going on the record to say I'm in love with you
I'm officially everything you hoped that i would be
This time i'll tell the truth
I'm officially wrong i know for letting you go the way i did Unconditionally more than I ever was before
I'm officially yours
La Da De, La Da De, La Da Da Da Da Do
Traveling down this road again got to make a few decisions
Dont want you to feel this hurt again
Thats why im hoping that you'll listen, if you let me press rewind
I'll rehearse every word, I should have said
Cause girl im ready to make things right
Here on the stage so we can move on (On)
And before the curtain falls and we act this out again
Missing pieces of ourselves so stay
I'm officially going on the record to say I'm in love with you
I'm officially everything you hoped that i would be
This time i'll tell the truth
I'm officially wrong i know for letting you go the way i did Unconditionally more than I ever was before
Things i should i have said
Like i appreciate the time that i spent with you
Inspire me with the smile of yours on your pretty face
My world comes alive now i know (and now i know babe)
This time im not letting go
Cause I'm officially yours
Officially everything you hoped that i would be
This time i'll tell you the truth I'm
Officially wrong i know for letting you go the way i did Unconditionally more than I ever was before
I'm officially going on the record to say I'm in love with you
I'm officially everything you hoped that i would be
This time i'll tell the truth
I'm officially wrong i know for letting you go the way i did Unconditionally more than I ever was before
Girl im unconditionally yours officially yours your man
Girl im unconditionally yours officially yours I am
Girl im unconditionally yours officially yours your man
Girl im unconditionally yours officially yours I am
