Yes, I think that's it!! The blurs on what would be the 2 and 0 look similar on both sides of the slash, and it makes sense with the vision chart as Jazzy said and the fact that it blurs in and out of focus. I'm gonna go ahead and guess that "you never know" is a hook in the song or something.

Pardon the double-post, but: we totally got this.

So it's really "Suit & Tie" and the album is called "The 20/20 Experience" and Pulse discovered that?

Is the question mark part of the (rumored) title?

Imagine how dumb we'll look if we're wrong. haha For the record, one of Timbaland's recent tweets had a lot of twos in it...I sent him a reply with #The2020Experience to see if he'll reply like Kid Fury did. Edit: Let the record stand that Adam's tweet is the first mention of The 20/20 Experience on Twitter. ("Suit & Tie" was floating around beforehand, including a Kid Fury blog post from yesterday.)

I did a more detailed write-up of the "decoding" on my website with a few things not mentioned in this thread like nerdy coding stuff (and a few of you are linked--hopefully I didn't overlook anyone; no shade intended, haha): kurttrowbridge.com/music-releases/justin-timberlake-2020-countdown/EDIT: See "update" at the bottom for another clue since posting. :)

I love your analysis!
I'm still torn regarding whether the single will be called "Suit & Tie" or "You Never Know" though. But you address that as well! haha

I don't know about this leaking on the weekend. I don't think we're hearing it before Monday. They've kept this entire project very wrapped up and secretive so far.

Will this debut at #1? How much does it need to sell? Impossible to predict. It's going to have an entire week of sales, airplay, and possibly streaming factored into its point total for its debut week on the Hot 100. How much it needs to sell depends on the other two factors (and the song currently at #1).
