Justin Timberlake's comments about his new album/song

(1/31) > >>

Spartan Pho3nix:

--- Quote ---He said the new sound was the product of a number of wide ranging influences, from Al Green and Marvin Gaye to The Beatles and The Eagles. About the first single 'SexyBack', Timberlake said:

    "The best way I can describe that song is say David Bowie and David Byrne decided to do a cover of James Brown's Sex Machine."
--- End quote ---


Excuse me? Having JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE cite David Bowie and David Byrne (AND THE FRICKEN BEATLES) to describe his new sound is DOWNRIGHT painful. God. Now I just hate the guy more.

Does he think he's a fricken musical revolutionary genius? Cause he's not. And if you've heard the new single, which I listened to a clip of to see if his claims had ANY basis...it's terrible.

Timberlake = Douchebag.


(For reference, AFX claims to have no musical influences and CYHSY still (afaik) haven't admitted in any interview that the Talking Heads were an influence.)

Aneurhythmia:
CYHSY?
Atleast Justin Timberlake can sing...

Willem:
singing? not really. and being able to sing does not prevent you from bein a douchebag (proof: george michael)

BeoPuppy:
Any and everything Justin Timberlake releases unto the marketplace should be illegal according to the geneva convention. Boring people to death is a crime too.

Gryff:
Aw man. It's Justin Timberlake guys. He can sing pretty well, and one or two of his songs are kinda catchy and good to dance to. So it might not be your thing. Whaddaya want? There are more important things to worry about.

And David Bowie, David Byrne and the Beatles are some of the most well known pop artists of all time. Of course he's going to be influenced by them. Don't be so boringly high and mighty.
