decided to listen to this again, never not gonna grimace at the intro of "suit and tie" and the awkward juxtaposition of "shit tie shit tie"
but dang "pusher love girl" is strong

I've got no patience for any man -- pop star or chimney sweep -- who uses "mama" as a term of affection in 2013.

it's only the coda of this song that's any good tho

like... the extended structure is not what's wrong with "Mirrors" at all

OK, I feel like an idiot. How do I listen to this thing? I followed links to iTunes, but it just opens up a page that says JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE next to a photo of JT, and there's nothing to click on.

This is way better than I expected it to be.

Actually it wasn't working on my desktop computer (not sure what the issue is -- I just upgraded last week), but I see it is working on my iPad.

In case it hasn't been mentioned already, JT is Jimmy Fallon's co-host on Late Night all week long.
― Johnny Fever, Tuesday, 12 March 2013 03:35 (eleven years ago) link
is he the musical guest every night as well?

this kick drum sound on "spaceship coupe" that sounds like a whip being cracked is really dope

i wonder how many times JT will play Dead Robin Gibb this week

what if they do a "history of rap" every night and by friday they're doing oj da juiceman's xxl freestyle

my theory is Justin is going to use this week to take away Tonight Show hosting prospects from Fallon, so he never has to make an album again

relistening in cold light of morning. WHY DOES SO MUCH OF THIS ALBUM SOUND LIKE A REALLY FUN INTERLUDE STRETCHED OUT TO SEVEN MINUTES THOUGH???
"tunnel vision" is the one. possibly the only one, but it's def where the languorous, unhurried feel clicks with me, i love all the little details in the production.
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Tuesday, 12 March 2013 10:41 (eleven years ago) link
tell you what, it makes goldenheart seem really concise and unsprawling by comparison
agree with "let the groove get in" being a really welcome shot in the arm but...it's just JT vamping for like 7 minutes. why is it not 3 minutes long? there is no reason for this. you are not erykah.
― flamenco drop (lex pretend), Tuesday, 12 March 2013 10:43 (eleven years ago) link
okay not skipping "mirrors" this time. i get exactly what it's meant to be, it's JT pulling out what's meant to be the album's Classic Song towards the end of an album that's not been big on songcraft. like, look, verses, a chorus, structure, all that jazz. too bad it SUCKS SO MUCH AND IS SUCH AN IDEAS VOID. its big "climax" when all the music except the cavernous drum beat drops out is so embarrassing, JT why is your big emotional peak on this song such a vocally limpdick mess?

Gotta say, I love Mirrors, and his performance of it on SNL was awesome (it helped that the band and backup singers all looked like they were having a blast). The lyrics are goofy as ever (what else is new), but it's hooky and and and. I just like it.
