Usher back with a bang!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bIHzh5w4tUc
I just about managed to resist a "climax" pun in the thread title ![]() Anyway, Usher's new song is called "Climax" and I think it is one of the best songs of 2012 so far. The subtle, throbbing electro beat mixed with Usher's falsetto is quite superb. It is a real grower for sure...kind of slowly burns its way into your brain. I hope this will be a huge hit for him

Sorry, but I have heard it a few times now and it actually gives me a headache. It is HORRIBLE
![]() In fact it is probably the WORST song I have heard this year so far. Utter tripe. |

Yes, this song is really good. Better than most of the singles he's released in the past few years.

Love it, been on repeat since I first heard it. One of the best songs this year for me.

I LOVED the "8701" and "Confessions" albums but then I sort of lost interest in him but I really like this song.

I HATE the song "Climax". No Bang More of a Large Flop. The Song Contains No Hook,Melody or Thigh-Pumping Beats. Usher, We Want Hits Like "OMG" & "Yeah". Will Them Days Ever Return. For Those Trying To Discover Usher Likes, Here's A Remarkalbe UK Born One- Labrinth With "Last Time" (Out This Week,Should Make UKTOP40'S TOP 5)

Back with a wobble more like... (A dubstep pun right there)
![]() It has divided opinion amongst my friends, and it isn't too well known about. Compare it to "Yeah" and "Love in the Club" and all, it isn't gathering the momentum his past hits have had. I don't like it! Disappointed in Diplo.

Diplo thinks this song is the best thing he has worked on in his career so far.

Well...it's great that he hasn't completely given up on his roots. 'Climax' is not bad, but not great either. It's smooth, though, sloppy video aside

Yeah it's so addictive and I think it is best to listen to in a dark room. The video is a bit disappointing alright though. Looks like it was made on a shoestring budget

I think it's awful! He overuses his falsetto far too much to the point where it gives me a headache. And it's rather bland and boring, as is the video in my opinion.

But you can blame Usher for Bieber's success, considering he discovered him. |

He has a duet with Alexandra Burke apparently coming too...his new single is great imo...I didn't really like Raymond v Raymond so this is a welcome change back to his roots tbh..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbLoN2q5nig ![]() I LOVE Climax, and I've been waiting for a return to this! I loved Raymond vs Raymond but more for songs like Mars vs Venus and There Goes My Baby rather than OMG and DJ Got Us Falling in Love. |
