Шаблон:Infobox song

"Don't Talk" is a song written,[1] produced[2] and performed by American contemporary R&B singer Jon B. It was issued as the first and only official single from his third studio album Pleasures U Like (2001). The song peaked at number 58 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in 2001.[3]

Background

"Don't Talk" was written and produced by Jon B. Conceived in his new recording studio following a fire in his previous facilities, the song was produced late into the production of the Pleasures U Like album.[4] Jon B. called the song a "last minute banger."[4]

Critical reception

Chuck Taylor from Billboard compared the song to Lucy Pearl's "Dance Tonight" (2000) and described "Don't Talk" as "one of those feel-good grooves. From the first few notes, the smoothed-out track and cool lyric put you in the mood to get up and dance, no matter where you are — in the office or car or at a club or your neighbourhood hangout [...] It's all fun — and we could all use some sunny summertime sounds to lighten up the gray winter music blahs."[5] NME wrote: "Bass-heavy from the start, "Don't Talk" quickly builds up into a tidy club jam, with pretty-as-a-daisy instrumental touches. Ever the ladykiller, Jon keeps his vocals on a softly-softly keel, which diverts attention to the groove and the gorgeous melodies elicited from his backing singers [...] It's a redeeming slice of soulful R&B (you know what I mean) for the guy with a ballad compulsion."[6]

Music video
