"I feel like the most damning thing about Part 2 is that none of the singles have been as good as "Suit & Tie" or "Mirrors""
this is true and it is also much more of an insult than stated

"Brand New" off the Pharrell album is so easily my favorite thing he's done in a while, really reaffirms that i much prefer P to Timbaland as a creative foil for Justin.

idk feel like "Brand New" never takes off as much as it should and Justified doesn't really hold up outside of the singles mostly
Still like part 1 even though its flaws became more apparent over time. part 2 has some good stuff amidst some bad ideas but can't say I come back to it much. this single's pretty eh imo but I'll take it over "Mirrors"

it's so horrible that pharrell is putting "marilyn monroe" out as the next single, that song is trash

lol i like "mirrors" a lot and tolerate "suit and tie", but haven't these songs been widely panned?

JT is coming back to play Chicago at the end of the year. Which would make this his ... sixth stop here since winter of 2013? At least?

the near-unanimous hatred for Mirrors is so weird to me. like i understand some ppl not liking it but everyone? obviously i am wrong about it.

It's like your my MIRROOR
― steendriver dysphoria hoos (The Reverend), Sunday, 13 April 2014 21:03 (ten years ago) link
err you're obv
I love Mirrors, haters be damned.

i mean, let's be real, any song that sold millions of downloads and broke radio airplay records is not unanimously hated. outside of this message board it's pretty well regarded. even on Pazz & Jop it just barely missed the top 10.
sucks tho.

i looked up the chorus cuz I find the opening "with me/with me" rhyme really insipid and grating, and it turns out he threw a "fuck" in there too that i was unaware of.
― da croupier, Sunday, April 13, 2014 11:05 AM (8 hours ago)
the lazy rhyming doesn't really bother me, since the rhyme is such an unimportant part of the hook -- it's all about the groove. it doesn't really get in the way

xpost: yeah i didn't mean unanimous globally, just 'round here. i'm kinda surprised it placed so high on p&j
― alpine static, Monday, 14 April 2014 00:07 (ten years ago) link

i don't suppose any of you clever internet detectives could track down the three edits ("no bullshit" and "album side length" and "just hooks") of this album that were originally posted here:
