ask the same question twice, get the same joke twice.

his came up as a broken img to me anyway

yes it looks like that is what happened.

xp

christ, that king of queens show ran for 10 years? we had a series of that on morning terrestrial a couple years ago i think, it fukking sucked

i say that as an everybody loves raymond fan btw

this album is mad generic and samey, I can name 5, maybe 10 better male r&b albums this year. it's not bad but it's not worth getting all hyped over, tho I do like Jeremih's personality

it's one of those albums that you listen to a few times w/o paying much attention and then realize that nothing on it is bad and you love it.

have y'all heard Pleasure P's album? Trey Songz (album & mixtape)? J. Holiday?... cuz all of their albums are way better than this.

maiayayayayayayayayayayai haus!

i haven't heard Pleasure P but i support him as his name sounds like some fictional they'd have in like a Lethal Weapon type movie in the late 80s, perhaps played by damon wayans

BTW the best song on this album is "My Sunshine" the uplifting ray of sunlight over a funeral scene fade out into end credits ballad. Check it.

i don't know about uplifting but i think you're right about funeral scene - "how could someone just take your soul so fast / and now youre gone"? and "if i could hold you again" might be a standard line but once i realised you could hear the chorus as having a double meaning............. :(

incidentally the abrupt switch in tone from that song into "...bet you'll fall in love with my ride!" is my favourite cackle of 09 i think.

brainwasher i take the point those other albums might be being underrated here (especially pleasure p's) but wtf man ur trippin so, so hard if you think you're gonna make that point on the basis of them not being as "generic and samey" as the jeremih

this record is brilliant yeah, listened to it more than anything else this year probably. quite surprised by how both the big ballads are so good, after initial "this sounds like what u2 make" reservations about "my sunshine" i've been listening to it loads now. don't like "runway" too much tho.

guess i really gotta listen to this again

wow fuck me, i've been sleeping on this album like crazy. loving some of these deep cuts, "buh bye" is killing me

i've sort of slept on this album except for imma star but i think theres a really good chance i would like it?

i really want to like this album based on posts on ilm but i can barely listen to this guy sing longer than 15 mins and not many of these songs hold up to "birthday sex"

i love the production on "birthday sex" but songwise i think "imma star" and "buh bye" are in the same conversation

see that's the weird thing--i think i like his singing?

what else has Mick Schultz produced? sounded like LOS to me

xp yeah his voice has really grown on me too

whoa why did i capitialize mick schultz there

it sounds very teenage to me-- it has that reedy quality a la beiber tbh

"buh bye" is great and so is "my ride"

this could get me in trouble but kinda sounds like a much more confident and sound chris brown

I really like that trick where part of the beat drops out and it's just him singing the chorus or whatever, like towards the end of 'imma star' and 'my ride'

sarge how do you feel about "break up to make up"? that song is a pure joy to me.

chris brown is a better comparison than bieber yeah -- but i think chris's songs work more because of their teen pop trappings

the production on "raindrops" !!

ship i really dig that song except for the insanely retarded metaphor in the chorus -- what's with this song & the new jt/timbo & fast food? anyway, the production on this album definitely surprised me -- altho it prob shouldnt have bcuz of how many subtle production tricks are in "birthday sex" -- and it's def why i keep wanting to like the album

i've kinda tuned out the lyrics -- "break up/make up" is a big red flag at lazy couplets ahoy -- but the vocals and the melody, especially on the bridge, are so great. baby James and I have bopped along to that song many a time.

aww

^^how can anyone dislike the song now

i held off listening to the album for ages b/c "birthday sex" was so perfect, but in that fragile don't-know-if-i-want-any-more way - it's a lot better than i thought it would be, but i think i agree w/jordan about his voice - it doesn't bother me in small doses but so much reediness over 45 mins is a bit much.

i'm streaming this right now--i think i just really like the sonics of it enough to carry the parts where the songs or his voice aren't quite up to par? so i'm like on the cusp of purchasing it but with my self-imposed 2 records/week limit not totally sure if/when that'll happen.

i'm so glad i put this on my ballot, just listened again today and it just gets better

I was just listening to 'raindrops' on headphones and when the thunder sound happened I actually took my off my headphones and looked out the window

"imma star" is on constant rotation here on kauai right now and i'm totally hooked. that little vocal glissando on "ice" is genius.

"imma star" is so good to nod your head to

did i mention that starting all over is the classic deep cut

OTM, besides the singles which are all incredible the can't-live-without-em cuts are "starting all over," "my sunshine," and "buh bye"

i shall always be inordinately fond of this album, the one thing that felt like it really came right out of nowhere to steal my heart in 2009.

and the kid had good videos too.

... yeah it's okay, i could get used to it?

pretty good!

doooope

Agree re the Jeremiah album, endlessly pleasurable to listen to.

haha that reminds me whenever i search for one of his videos on youtube it always autocorrects to 'jeremiah'

I have a Google Autocorrect in my brain it seems.
