SexyBack, yay! Pushed back, boo. :-(
Despite Mr. Timberlake's exhortations to the contrary, I'm pretty sure sexy hasn't gone anywhere from which it needs to return. That said, he croons so stylishly about it that I almost bought his claim. Bringing sexy back, indeed. Nice try, sweetie!
If you haven't guessed by now, I heard SexyBack for the first time today. I'd read various things about the tune but I was still surprised. It's very different, and I *really* liked it. The proof is that I stopped the radio scan when I heard it, and I had no idea what the song was or who was singing. After I realized what it was, I actively tried to hear "Justin" while I listened; if I hadn't heard the hook, I'd don't think I'd have guessed it was him. He sounded good through the distortion, I think it works with his voice, not against it. I think he knocked this one out of the park!
You know, when I first read that JC's album had been pushed back I honestly wasn't surprised. Saddened and disappointed to be sure, but not surprised. I just...don't have the energy to figure that boy out. Wait - that's not quite true, because I do have a few theories that I won't share (nothing none of you haven't already thought of, I'm sure). I wonder if we're looking at another February release? Oh, JC. You troubled, troubled soul, you. ::pets JC, sighs::
On a happier note, 4/5ths of NSync at JC's b-day party! That made me smile. :-) I really miss those guys.

I wish we had some clue what the hell was going on with JC's music, man. This seems different to me than last time, though I could be wrong about that, because I wasn't really actively into him until a couple months before the album actually dropped.
That birthday party made me so happy! And somehow, the fact that it happened within mere miles of where I was at the time made me happier. Not to mention the lovely JuC pics, of course!
I love your icon and new Activist!Lance. He's so cute.

Isn't he? I'm so happy that he can do and SAY what he wants now! Loved the pictures of him at the honors program that went astray. Sitting in the background in a suit, the proud boyfriend. He's definitely coming into his own. :-)
