as if the intro and hook weren't weak enough, then comes a Jay-Z verse. why? why?!?!!?

Would've loved Gucci Mane on this. Or T.I.. Even Drake! ANYONE BUT JAY-Z.

or NO GUEST AT ALL
but i bet i hated "sexy back" at first and then the album was brilliant so still holdin out hope.
there was so much on Futuresex that hinted to some awesome territory for him. why can't he go further into the sound he hinted at on the title track and "sexy ladies" etc
this is a step backward

also, Justin timberlake is excited about getting dressed up in a suit. you're a fucking adult millionaire dude. get over it
― surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Monday, 14 January 2013 16:23 (thirteen years ago)
whatever, i like this, jay-z verse apart. underwhelming as a single, though.
― bish (bosch), don't kill my vibe (rennavate), Monday, 14 January 2013 16:26 (thirteen years ago)
also this feels like timbo doing neptunes

Haha, that's probably true. I don't mind it at all though. And Jay-Z is mostly there to let the world that this is a big and important song. I think he does an alright job. No guest at all would be preferable though.

lmao at the idea of gucci mane or drake on this song
i bet drake's on the album tho
surfboards is right about "sexyback" tho
― J0rdan S., Monday, 14 January 2013 16:36 (thirteen years ago)
yeah i've never loved that song but i can appreciate it as a lead single, especially now
― some dude, Monday, 14 January 2013 16:37 (thirteen years ago)
yeah i feel totally different about that song now than i did even three years ago
― J0rdan S., Monday, 14 January 2013 16:38 (thirteen years ago)
sexy back got much better after the album came out and you heard "my love" and you were like oh this sexyback is jsut a club song not like the statement
― surfboard dudes get wiped out, totally, Monday, 14 January 2013 17:00 (thirteen years ago)
"LoveStoned" is the only track I feel like listening to these days
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 14 January 2013 17:00 (thirteen years ago)
"sexyback" is the best song on FS/LS
― lex pretend, Monday, 14 January 2013 17:03 (thirteen years ago)
and always was
apart from when it wasn't.
― tsrobodo, Monday, 14 January 2013 17:07 (thirteen years ago)
which was most of the time.
I heard "Until The End of Time" last summer for the first time since late '07 and thought it wasn't as limp as I once thought
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 14 January 2013 17:08 (thirteen years ago)
As we get older, our standards of what qualifies as limp get frequently revised.

"Sexyback" was almost the best song on FS/LS.
"What Goes Around.../...Comes Around" was the best.
― Johnny Fever, Monday, 14 January 2013 19:05 (thirteen years ago)
Take away Jay-Z and the intro and I basically love this. Isleys vibes.

This thing reminds me of Don't Disturb The System for some reason

It left me pretty cold this morning and I still can't get passed the intro and Jay-Z verse to fully recommend it but I like its mild electrogroove.
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 14 January 2013 21:43 (thirteen years ago)

it feels like it should be facile to bring up the other white R&B guy but there really are like 20 Robin Thicke songs that do this exact vibe a million times better
― some dude, Monday, 14 January 2013 21:45 (thirteen years ago)
not sure Thicke would be above using the line about dinner and the oven though
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 14 January 2013 21:46 (thirteen years ago)
Tom Waits def not above using it
― the little prince of inane false binary hype (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 14 January 2013 21:47 (thirteen years ago)
I def get Thicke vibes from this.

but jt begat thicke in the first place
― bish (bosch), don't kill my vibe (rennavate), Monday, 14 January 2013 21:50 (thirteen years ago)
not really, nothing about Thicke's sound is derived from JT in any way

<img src="http://www.biography.com/imported/images/Biography/Images/Profiles/T/Alan-Thicke-227603-1-402.jpg">
begs 2 differ
but anyway i think thicke recorded his first record before Justified came out?
xp
― keef qua keef (Jordan), Monday, 14 January 2013 21:53 (thirteen years ago)
i mean maybe you could make an argument that he set a precedent career-wise but the nature of Thicke's success and what his biggest songs sound like don't line up xp
― some dude, Monday, 14 January 2013 21:54 (thirteen years ago)
yeah i mean career-wise, vocal style wise, even, not song-wise

never forget
― DJP, Monday, 14 January 2013 21:57 (thirteen years ago)
that song is ridiculous but dope
voice-wise they can be similar, especially in falsetto. but i think it speaks volumes that Thicke's big breakthrough came out less than a month after FS/LS but "SexyBack" and "Lost Without U" represent such vastly different approaches that only the hackiest hack would've dwelled on the comparison for too long.
