Justin Retires Hit Song

Justin Timberlake performed in Las Vegas this weekend for an event entitled “Justin Timberlake & Friends”, which benefited Shriners Hospitals for Children.

Justin told the crowd during his performance of “Sexy Back” that it will never be performed live again as he was retiring it. Man, even Justin knew that song was played out, like 2 years ago. IMHO, that was the whackest track on his last CD anyway, so good riddance. The rest of the CD still gets play in my ipod.

Didn’t someone go after him saying “How can you bring sexy back, if sexy never left?” All right then.-Dr.FB

Justin is copying a certain other artist...

whateva Justin- i'm with Janet- if the fans wanna hear it- play it

isn't his career too short to be retiring songs? it's not like he's been around 20 years or so.

He's retiring 'SexyBack'?

How the hell can you retire something that's played the fuck out?

He's retiring it...bullshit! No one wants to hear it!

I'd liek to hear his new stuff. That one song, Stepping Out Tonight is supposed to be a Justified outtake.

Another reason I can't stand this little twit..oh well. The song sucked anyways.
His music is good...but HIM as his whole little "Public persona" and how he tries to act like Will Smith - it is sooooo old. You aren't Prince Justin. You aren't MJ Justin. Shit you aren't even George Michael Justin - so please find your own musical identity (including the decision to "retire" a song *cough* PRINCE *cough) and until then, go jump on that FAR AWAY island with:

Beyonce
Usher
Lil Wayne
Soldja Boy
Neyo

Pop/R&B is in a sad state of affairs today. At least in the 80s when it was about sex and partying - it was fun. A lot of today's music is just disgusting.


Sorry for the rant.

Sorry but only people like Billy Joel,Tina Turner,Prince etc...can retire songs, im sick of these cats like Jay Z,Justin and now even Kanye is talking retirement, i mean come on already can everyone just stop the self indulgent shit until you have a RIGHT to be self indulgent.

How does one retire a song after a couple of years? I've never heard of that. 20-30 years maybe, but 2???

Shit, I was hoping the topic read "Justin retires".

justin should retire all 2gether cuz he aint hitting on shit and his fake attempts 2 copy janet usher and michael is just played out non dancing helfa

I don't think anyone will want to see him if he doesn't sing sexyback, it's his signature song now, and would be like mj retiring billie jean.

Oh shut it, boy band haters. He'l just write a new hit song. Or have it written for him, whatever.

He'l be around for a loooong time.

that talentless wanker should retire altogether

I'm very far from Pro-Prince right now but damn it, this must be said...

Justin!! When you have reached the kind of plateau that Prince (unfortunately, for his fans like me) has distant memories of...it is then and ONLY THEN...that you can talk about retiring some shit! Get over your damn self!!!

i was just about to post: "good. now maybe he will follow suit."

Dewrede said:

well each to their own i guess

imo the guy can't sing ; his falsetto is weak and his voice lacks any power
furthermore he doesn't he even write his own songs ;
and all those timbaland songs he does sound similar to me and they are devoid of any emotion

We've heard it as much as we have, but can you imagine performing it constantly?

We have the choice to turn off the radio, TV, whatever. He can't turn it off the minute he hears it again...he's gotta do it the whole way through.

And it's an annoying, repetitive song, so no wonder even HE can't stand it anymore

I'm sure he won't retire it, he might not perform it for a few years but it's his biggest hit - how many times has Prince retired Purple Rain?

i noticed i wasn't the first one either to post it though

Yeah, you're a part of a bunch of highly original Orgers.

Well, that's okay, I suppose. I know the guy is a twat, but his singles are almost always ace.

Retire ALL his songs and I'd be happy
