Nah, still Promiscuous
9. Promiscuous (feat. Timbaland) - Nelly Furtado
Average: 8.3548387
Highest: 10 (Venus, umichgrad07, Jdella11, Gabriel_Spears, Chemist, Aryl, stereo.love, Andre, fortheloveofmusic) | Lowest: 3 (Jinzo)
Nelly's #1s are a cut above, tbh. This one was (again) produced by Timbaland when he was at his very best. It's fun, clubby, but still hip-hoppy enough to gain everyone's attention. Nelly sounds cute sing-rapping, and Timbaland sounds cute rap-singing. This song was 2006 for me. I hiked up Sulphur Mountain to this song. I walked from the YMCA to Step Up at the movies to this song. It was my Summer (along with Maneater, and all of Loose tbh).

This song is good. It should have outlasted a few of the top 10 songs.

Boo boo. You're not talking about Try Again or Are You That Somebody. Let's be real - first wave Timbo (Aaliyah/Missy) >>>>>>>> second wave Timbo (Justin/Nelly) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 1.5 Timbo (Brandy et al) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> current Timbo.

When I first heard this song I thought it was Kelis & Nas.

I ****ing love this song. Wish it outlasted some other songs, but this is fair spot I guess.

No more clues. Each of you will be hit like a brick.

Now I can't stop hearing it.
It would have been SO much better than In Public.
And Nas's raps would have been usable, unlike Timbaland's.

I was not much into music news when this song first come out, prolly not until a year after.

I bet it sucks to be you right noooooooooooooooooow
8. Irreplaceable - Beyonce
Average: 8.4032258
Highest: 10 (Venus, Jdella11, Chemist, stereo.love, Fruity, Ace Reject, madonnas, Green, Beyonce On Top, Regina George, genetic fail, Honey) | Lowest: 2 (Jinzo)
You're said, must hurt, boo hoo. Seriously though, this song is ****ing wicked! Beyonce telling off her lover who jilted her is magnifique! #1 for 10 weeks is a tad excessive, but honestly this song delivers on almost every level.

Just bumping my question for Ace.

I remember the ear-shock when I first heard this on B'Day. After all those huge dance R&B beats, this change of pace came on. It was so refreshing. I knew it would be a big hit.

I love it, but I think "Irreplaceable" might be my least favorite of Bey's #1's.

Jinzo and Playboy take the same approach to these rates It's either a 10 or a 1-2
