Music Preview: Justin Timberlake - Future Sex/Love Sounds

There has been much hype surrounding the release of Justin Timberlake's much anticipated new album, Future Sex/Love Sounds. People in the music business have been talking about how this new album will "save" the music industry. The music industry is in a state of disarray.  Big wigs hope and pray Future Sex/Love Sounds will sell enough to make up for profits lost to downloading and online content. Personally, I think the music industry needs to adapt to these changes and take full advantage of an online lifestyle. But enough about the music industry, here is the skinny:

    I've been listening to the full album for the past week and I have to say that it is a step up from Justified. The production is much higher this time around. I like what I hear with his new material, with the execption of his slower songs, they just don't work for me.

    Favs:
    FutureSex/LoveSound - Sexy energy
    LoveStoned/I Think She Knows - 2nd half is cool
    What Goes Around/Comes Around - Tight song
    My Love - Instant hit, loved the performance @ VMA
    Pose - Its a chill song, its playful and fun
    SexyBack Remix - Clipse completed the song

    Very tight songs so far what i've heard, the first song sounds alot like George Micheal/Prince, not all to original but i still like it.

    I've been listening to the album & it's awesome! I love all the tracks! My faves though are "FutureSex/LoveSound", "My Love", "Summer Love", "What Goes Around... Comes Around", & "Until The End of Time". I haven't heard the other bonus tracks yet, but I can't wait!

    According to some sites the uk edition actually contains the first set of tracks listed rather than the ones currently named above as the uk edition. Could anyone clear this issue up for me?

    If you guys check it out you won't find ANY of the songs on the UK edition that aren't also on the US edition anywhere. I think the songs that aren't listed on the US edition either weren't recorded or were just made up. Also, the song "Floatin" is actually from a Charlie Wilson CD and "Take Away You Love" is actually a bonus track from "Justified" called "You're My Light." Every song listed on the US edition, however, has been out there for weeks. "Botique in Heaven" isn't even on iTunes that I can find and the remix of "SexyBack" with Clipse isn't even listed.
