Robin Thicke is making it quite clear he wants his estranged wife, Paula Patton, back. After announcing he's naming his next album Paula and promoting it widely with "#Paula," Thicke delivered an impassioned music video for "Get Her Back."

Whether you think this is an admirable way to win her over or a sad example of not moving on once a relationship is over, the "Blurred Lines" singer's video is a raw look into how badly the 37-year-old musician feels about losing his lover. Thicke and Patton started dating when they were teenagers, got married in 2005 and then separated in February 2014.

Thicke pairs his pining lyrics with SMS messages that, for all we know, could potentially be real exchanges between him and Patton. "We had everything," one reads.

Thicke's seventh studio album, Paula, is due out July 1.

The album is filled with song titles relating to his and Patton's relationship: "You're My Fantasy," "Still Madly Crazy," "Love Can Grow Back" and "Forever Love."
