Justin Timberlake in 2013

thanks to that little digital sound effect in the beat for "Strawberry Bubblegum" I keep wanting to sing "Clumsy" over the chorus

Rick's brief part of Monster looped for 40 minutes would hit the spot, tbh

i haven't combed the album's thread, i imagine that verse is reviled, but i like it

if you can call it a verse

I like that verse cause it's like he's just the herald coming in on some "HEAR YE HEAR YE" (pun only slightly intended) shit

really dig "Spaceship Coupe" too

so far I have really enjoyed when he's been signalling Prince to me and the main part of "Suit and Tie"

this trend is holding true with the beginning of "That Girl"

lol "Mirrors"

I am rebelling against everyone else in this thread and humming Kelly Clarkson over this instead of Beyonce

a moment like this?

"Miss Independent"

some dude, can you put out a call for a similar edit to MBDTF? would love a version of that w/o the bullshit.

hahahaha

here's an easy way to edit MBDTF:

delete everything except tracks 1, 2 and 8

Yeah everyone: listen to "Don't Rush" instead.

that was fun

probably not buying this, or ever playing it again

np: The Cure - "The Real Snow White"

outro of "don't hold the wall" is my new fav part of this album

same here

not a big fan of the "you shouldn't have to ask me that question" breaks but yeah, it's good otherwise

the harmonies at the end of "Let the Groove Get In" are mine I think

good singing, bro

have to say, as much as i love timbo, his signature kick drum samples and clacky snares don't really blend with the rest of the production at points. it's kind of endearing but also distracting.

good singing, bro

thanks, I appreciate

I have just started to listen to dress on. it's kinda cool, actually. it's a bit different from the rest of the tracks.
at this point, the only tracks I don't like a lot are "spaceship" and "pusher".
and I can see "spaceship" corny prince ballad aspect grow on me at some point.

right now, I love the guitar lick from "that girl".
and I even like "mirrors", especially the part after the a capella break when it comes back in, before the outro. lovely.

I like Strawberry Bubblegum, and it does take the "coming to get something to get nuthin"" from "All Day Sucker"

Surprised no one has mentioned Scorpions wrt Mirrors

yes we did -- we recorded the experience of listening to "Mirrors"

didn't know they did the whole album in 3 weeks. not surprised, for better or worse.

interesting

so apparently this album rocks

i only found out when i started singing suit and tie at full speed ahead doing the dishes

yeh ive def warmed to this quite a lot, now really like suit & tie and luv spaceship coupe

feel like it would be good if 'that girl' were replaced by something grittier but yea i'm already on my 2nd listen this AM

first five seconds of "Spaceship Coupe" always make me think I'm listening to

again with the beyonce connection too. the spaceship coupe echos on "you" are v v "1+1"

and like, the electric guitar coming in ... he definitely listened to 4 a bunch

my coworker's three reactions to this album:

(1) "what is this song?" [i told her, strawberry bubblegum] "i think he just ... didn't know what to write"

(2) "this album is so random"

(3) "this song makes me want to eat mexican food" (let the groove get in)

"Let The Beans Out"

bring it on down to tacoville

looool

the Stylistics comment is otm. Thom Bell is all over this thing and I love it!

Starting to hear "Mirrors" on radio and it's in the top ten. They didn't wait very long to add it with "Suit and Tie" still high on the charts.

relistened to "sign" recently and forgot how much i like that song

listening to the radio is impossible now. the other day "suit & tie" was on one station so i had to switch it, only to hear "mirrors" on the next one. so i switched that one to a third station, which was also playing "suit & tie". all my other presets were on commercials so i gave up and popped in a cd. life is tuff.

i was humming mirror all day yesterday, it's soo boyz II men

only 17,000 years long

heard a DJ mix Jay's "Suit & Tie" verse with the uptempo part of the song -- whole song really should've just been that beat

JT is the least of my worries turning on the radio right now. What a hellscape.

I made myself a mix where I took the slow parts and just sped them up at twice the speed, so that they were the same speed as the rest of the song. It was pretty great, though it did make it sound like the chorus was being sung by the Munchkins at the beginning.

stockholm syndrome with "mirrors" now, sorry guys

yeah, still sucks but don't hate it as much as I hate most of everything on the radio right now :/

i mean, if he meant for it to sound epic in the same way that some of the FS/LS songs did then he failed, but whatever

strawberry bubblegum rly just needs some new lyrics fuck. he can't quite pull off dem MC kinda lyrics

Seriously there's worse shit sliming FM

Like that Rhianna "Stay" thing
