Love 4 JUSTIN

"SexyBack" was hot... "My Love" is hotter... With the exception of Chris Brown, not many dudes out there keeping the whole R&B/Dance thing interesting... Why all the hate here?

I had been reading with interest the comments that have been posted recently...
I hadn't heard either song- before today. I watched "Ellen" this afternoon, and frankly, I was disappointed. I was left wondering what all the hype has been about. His voice was weak, and the "dance" moves were weaker. neutral

I don't know. I'll probably buy the album anyway- I have "Justified". But, I was not feeling that performance on "Ellen" at all. disbelief

"Love Hurts.
Your lies, they cut me.
Now your words don't mean a thing.
I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..."

I like him too. Caught the last song and a half on Ellen today and enjoyed it. I think it repeats on Oxygen late tonight. Worth recording, just to see what he does with Cry Me a River.

Nothing against Justin-I just know that he's not worthy of being compared 2 Prince..

Yeah, it seems like he learned that move, yesterday...but he'll perfect it by the time the video comes out. Hopefully.
Wasn't sure if it was that of if the more fitted clothes show the true leg work. We'll see.

I don't know, I just wanna give him props for keeping this genre alive... He is open about the CD being an homage to Prince and at least he's getting that sound out to a new generation... Also, there hasn't been a guy I enjoy watching dance since Prince -- thats where the comparison is for me.

Spoiler:



During the verse, the guitars played the riff from Led Zeppelin's "The Ocean".

So far, Justin has really impressed me. 'Sexyback' was fresh, and 'My Love' is the ultimate slow jam this year. Sure, he may not be as great as Michael Jackson(much less Prince), but the guy has skills, and he's keeping his sound interesting and different from the rest of radio.

Frankly, he's come a VERY long way from his NSYNC days, that's for sure.

oh, no doubt that he's not just some "fugitive from a boy band"- I was just a little disappointed because I had heard so much hype behind this album.

Because, Justin sucks. End of story.
Oh and Chris Brown sucks too

Ok ok, seriously though, they both are just boring modern day R&B artists...
It is not known why FuNkeNsteiN capitalizes his name as he does, though some speculate sunlight deficiency caused by the most pimpified white guy afro in Nordic history.
