COMMENTS
well so i guess the whole cd leaked last night. the one on ******* needs a password so dont even bother downloading that one. i got mine from ircspy so if youre familiar with that try that one instead. but anywho....
This album is pretty solid, way better than the half ass Back to Basics & the messy B'Day!  One downfall on this album though is all the songs are way too long. the shortest song is 4:02 which is SexyBack, 2 that are over 7 mins and the rest are over 5 mins. Nobody wants to listen to the same song that long. Oh well, the songs are definitely worth listening.
Single Worthy
- What Goes Around... hopefully this is the 3rd single. This joint is way too good.
- Damn Girl... this song is way too catchy for its own good. Has to be released one way or another!
- My Love... isnt this already the 2nd single already? Great choice
I wouldn't say theres a filler in this CD but for now I will say they are so different that it needs time to grow for a first time listen. The 3 singles I have mentioned were a definite winners right away for me but I have faith... I will love this CD. Go download this album now!!! or maybe buy it if you wanna add on to JT's funds... whatever!
Overall I give this CD a 9.0
for now Justified is still better and I dont think it will change. Justified was such a feel good CD cant help but like it more...

Such a HOT CD and I barely gave it two listens to determine this. Thanks PAN!
1. "FutureSex/LoveSound"
-This song is INSANELY HOT. I can't pinpoint what 80's track this reminds me of but at first I thought it resembled something from Prince, pre-"1999" or GM's "I Want Your Sex" but it doesn't. Anyway, A+.
2. "SexyBack"
-Great first single that refuses to get old or annoying. Well, for me at least. Expect it hit #1 on Wednesday. A+
3. "Sexy Ladies / Prelude: Let Me Talk To You"
-Lyrically generic but the production, as usual, is ace. B
4. "My Love" [Feat. T.I.]
-Awesome 2nd single that'll surely get him Urban love. I'm pretty sure Timberflake could get his 2nd #1 hit with this. Very nice track that is both relaxing for the mind and great for the dancefloors. A+
5. "Love Stoned / Interlude: I Think She Knows"
-The funkiest track on the album. Reminds me Timbaland's more recent productions such as PCD's "Wait A Minute" moreso than anything older than 15 years. Very nice. A
-"I Think She Knows" should have been a full song. It's incredible!
6. "What Goes Around... / Interlude: ...Comes Around"
-This is one nice F.U. to Spears. Excellent track and surefire future hit for Timberflake. And the interlude is one big punch in the face for Spears. Sorry Brit! A+
7. "Chop Me Up" [Feat. Timbaland & Three 6 Mafia]
-A song that shouldn't have made the album. Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but the only thing that really saves the track is that it reminds me of Brandy's "Come As Your Are." C
8. "Damn Girl" [Feat. Will.I.Am]
-What's the fuss over this track? It's a good James Brown imitation but the lyrics replicate 2 songs I've already heard on this tracklisting. B
9. Summer Love / Prelude: Set the Mood"
-HOT HOT HOT!!! This would have been perfect for the summer. Nothing lyrically challenging or intelligent about it but it's a carefree "summer love" song paired with a killer beat. Maybe a summer anthem for '07? A+
10. "Until the End of Time"
-This reminds me of something of Aaliyah's "Choosey Lover" & Prince's "The Beautiful Ones." Great track. A
11. "Losing My Way"
-Who's Bob? lol. Another awesome track and highlight. A great song accompanied by a great message. It's also the best gospel-tinged pop song I heard since Mariah Carey's "Anytime You Need A Friend" and the C+C remixes. I'd like to see this as a single. We don't get songs like this anymore. A+
12. "Another Song (All Over Again)"
-The "Save Me From Myself" of FS/LS. Excellent track \& highlight produced by RIck Rubin & JT. Alot of soul loaded into this track. Could make a great single down the line or it could remain the album's eternal gem. A+
13. "P.O.S.E." [Feat. Snoop Dogg]
-Nothing spectacular but still a nice track. B
Overall, the album gets an A. Once again, another SOLID album from '06 but this is easily one of the best. Oh and a hell of alot better than Justified.

FS/LS song is a Promiscuous rip-off

It's a solid album, for a white guy once on Disney he is pretty damn slick now. Losing My Way seems like the obvious slow song for a single.
My Love is going to be really big I think.
This CD is either going to sell pretty well, or huge.

Huh? I don't really see such a huge similarity at all.

This album would be perfect if Chop Me Up wasn't on it. It's easily the worst song that he's ever done. Brian I don't know if you caught it but the beat in FutureSex/Love Sounds is like Queen's Another One Bites the Dust and the verses are sung in Freddie's style.

justin said what goes around is not about britney he said about a friend.. maybe trace since he's not with that chick from 24 anymore. he said cry me a river was about britney so why not admit this one is. so i'm taking his word it's not about her..
i dl the album but i haven't listened.. i'm buying the cd when it comes out but i'm debating if i should wait to hear it, but from the reviews i'm dying to listen to it.

I think that John Mayer might out-sell Justin on Sept. 12. His album is better. I think he sells too. It should be interesting to see how that pans out.

Oh, I forgot they both come out the same day. That will definitely be interesting to see. John Mayer's album is very good, no fillers, while Justin does have a few songs on FS/LS that probably shouldn't have made it int.
As I expected, my favorite tracks on Justin's album are the ballads. "What Goes Around...," "Until The End of Time," and "Another Song..." are very, very good. I think he does best on those three songs than he does on the other, more upbeat tracks where sometimes gimmicks can get in the way of song.
There is less filler on FS/LS than on Justified which already makes it better.

I do know what you mean but that bassline is so popular that it's almost expected to be copied.

This album is a definite GROWER. Unlike B2B and B'Day where you can dig into it after 2 or 3 listens, you have to really sit down and listen to what he's sayin and whats all goin on in the song. Its overwelmin at times and his voice gets lost in the production. Timbaland did a damn good job on the album, he's puttin in 110% this year to music. I don't know what Rick Rubin actually contributed to the album. His voice does sound a lil different, I think he's tryin a new singin style. Now let's talk about the good, average and whack songs.
THE BEST:
Summer Love
SexyBack
My Love
Pose-
(Another Song) All Over Again
Until The End of Time
Average
Sexy Ladies- typical JT from Justified
FS/LS title track- lyrics are a mess and should be a one of the whack tracks but I'm diggin the beat and his voice
What Goes Around- I'm tired of him singin these whiny punkass songs
Chop Me Up- I love the raps but I haven't gotten into any of the rest
Losing My Way- has to grow on me
Love Stoned- he sounds drunk on it but me likes
Whack
Damn Girl- this song just didn't do anything for me. For now its a FILLER!
All those damn interludes are a waste of time and song space
The verdict is out until Sept. 12th when I hear everythin on cd and can give exact precise review of it.

Lmao!!! Look what I got from JJB:
It has been the longest day ever, and I'm way too tired to write a full review of the Best Buy event or the show I just got back from, but I wanted to share a few things. I'm in a wheelchair, so the Best Buy folks let me, my friend Beth, and another JJBer who is in a wheelchair go in first, so we were at the very front of the crowd, like a foot from the stage or something. It was unreal. Justin was right in front of me. When he played "My Love" I of course sang along. So at one point he looks at me and sees me singing the song. Then he looks at one of his people and they both kinda laugh. So he asks me, "You know all the words?" and I was like, "Yup." So he goes, "Where'd you hear it? The radio?" and I was like, "Yeah " So after they stop the song, he says something to the crowd like, "That's My Love. I guess some radio stations are already playing it. I don't know how they got it." I made sure not to sing along to WGA and LoveStoned.
I think he knows his cd leaked, cuz while I was waiting in line for BestBuy, his head security and other people were talking to us in line, and they asked me what CD i wanted them to buy to play while we waited, and I said "...the new cd! haha" jokingly of course, and he was like "it's not out yet!" and some girls screamed about it already being leaked, and he was like "i'm sure it has. have it on my IPOD if u wanna listen to it"
Lol, I thought that was funny.

LMAO! Wow, hilarious stuff. Anyway, Chop Me Up is clearly the worst track and to this day is still sounds like something that's for Kevin Federline instead of Justin. Regardless, I love the CD.

Why doesn't he put Future Sex to be his first single? (or 2nd single)
