I can see why people don't like it- as it's not the upbeat mainstream lead single that we all wanted. But justin's always tried to break trends and that, he said it himself when releasing his last album. Personally, I quite like it- was really surprised how jazzy it was. And I love jay-z's feature. Yeah, I don't think it'll be a massive massive hit like sexyback was- but this is still a great song.
I like it. I like that he's not decided to follow trends. - that would be so reductive. And if he can bring a dying genre back into the mainstream then I'll be extremely happy.
I find it underwhelming. It's OK, but nothing that screams an actual hit. If the label decides to push this song, better off releasing it as a 4th or 5th single.
lol. Everybody in this thread is so angry he released an R&B song.
It's Justin though. I said on this forum before there's no way he'd ever release a song like Starships. I have so much respect for him, music isn't about getting big hits.

No one is mad that he released an R&B track I think most people who Justin's music will know his music is R&B/Pop I think people are just dissapointed that the song is not like a mega smash that they were expecting the song doesn't scream Big Comeback song. The songs growing on me though I'm liking it more and more.

What does his chart position have to do with ANYTHING? People have brought crappy songs in the past & they still do.
He's announced the new album title and it's going to be called 'The 20/20 Experience'
Haven't heard the single yet, not sure I want to after what you guys are all saying about it!
I don't see what's with all the fuss about it - it is a nice RnB song. I agree it is a grower, but honestly, I'm just glad he stayed true to his RnB style and that he didn't go all generic electro music like everybody is doing these days.
Its a credit that after five years he can still sell on name alone but be honest its crap. It sounds so old and dated. I really expected something different but its like a left over from Future Sex/Love Sounds. Which is sad because that was such a game changer album. He risks ruining its legacy if he is trying to repeat that sound again. I do agree though with those saying they are pleased he hasn't gone down the genertic dance route.

Except it is if you want to make a career out of it.
