Bruno Mars monkeys around on the cover of his sophomore album Unorthodox Jukebox. The comical artwork shows a gorilla playing a jukebox (He also has a song on the album titled “Gorilla”).
Due December 11, the follow-up to his Grammy-winning debut Doo-Wops & Hooligans features 10 tracks including the single “Locked Out of Heaven” and “Young Girls,” which he premiered on “SNL.”
Mars executive produced the project with his songwriting/production team The Smeezingtons (Mars, Philip Lawrence, Ari Levine), and worked with producers including Jeff Bhasker, Mark Ronson, and Diplo.
“This is me locking myself in the studio and being free recording whatever it is I want to record,” the singer-songwriter told VH1. “Just being inspired by all different styles of music and isn’t that what music should be?”
1. “Young Girls”
2. “Locked Out of Heaven”
3. “Gorilla”
4. “Treasure”
5. “Moonshine”
6. “When I Was Your Man”
7. “Natalie”
8. “Show Me”

Also, love the icon. :]
(I like that photo of him tho.)
werq boo!
My friend is even more excited, because this means she has more song options to add on her proposed Broadway Show based on Bruno Mars Songs. I wish I was kidding about this
And I'm liking the direction he's taking his stuff especially after his first album which I thought was all a bit plain and so so.
2012 has been great for music, I hope this is another album to add to my list this year.
aesthetically i really love the look and vibe he's going for with this album
What is he trying to say?
