The ten reasons why Justin Timberlake's
The 20/20 Experience made the Top Ten:
- Jay Z. Well, okay, so that isn't a reason. But Jay Z!
- My favorite song of the record is called "Strawberry Bubblegum." Don't hate me.
- "Mirrors" is a bona fide radio jam worth listening (and singing!) to in your car.
- Hop into my spaceship coupe! There's only room for two! JT wants to take you for a ride in his spaceship coupe! For real! Think about that for a minute. Chillin' with JT in his spaceship coupe--got the windows special tinted for the stars that get too bright! Man, his spaceship coupe.
- That part in "Strawberry Bubblegum" where he says it was such a mellow mellow mellow mellow mellow mellow day . . . when you walked by. Ahh! Ahh!
- Old-school Motown vibes that are actually worthy of old-school MoTown. That girlllllllll.
- "Tunnel Vision" is cooler and badder than just about every other radio hit. It is chock full of the hyper-production values that Timbaland greases into every 20/20 track. Swirly little keyboard things. Off-kilter little drum beats. Quick little string strikes and piano runs. Just lush, dude.
- The best song that Gloria Estefan never wrote.
- That part in "Strawberry Bubblegum" where he breaks it down with a prolonged coda and he even references his former N'Sync hit. And then I'll love you 'til I make you pop! Yes, my life is boring as hell.
