Robin for everything. Nudity isn't a big thing for me in videos, so JT's more "artistic" approach towards it doesn't buy it any points.
Tunnel Vision is a good song and a fine video, but it continues to encapsulate just what is missing from Justin Timberlake in 2013, fun. And that's a real shame, because he used to ooze enjoyment in his videos in the past.

While some of ya'll Justin stans may try to blur out Robin with unfounded allegations of cocaine usage, he's the clear victor across the board here. And I don't even like "Blurred Lines" all that much!

Tunnel Vision for all, and it's probably my least favorite song on the album. But anything is better than "Blurred Lines."

Robin. It seems that all problems begin when Justin tries to be more artistic.

There really is no way for him to win in that regard because if he just does whatever he does and it's not all that artistic, people say he has lost his way and is declining, but then he does something artistic and it is viewed as try-hard, pretentious, unnecessary. What is he supposed to do?

Not trying to be a prude but I want to say neither. I know sex sells but it's almost always the women who are nude or depicted as sexual objects. Basically what I'm trying to say is this:

Blurred Lines on all accounts. Tunnel Vision is just stupid, the video and the song.

The nudity in Tunnel Vision reminds me of Britney's sauna scene in Womanizer and Rihanna's light show in You Da One, which visually I liked a lot in terms of representation. That being said Justin's performance seems particularly woeful as the 20/20 era continues, his use of nudity in particular just seems random and without purpose so even though it's not attempting to be gratuitous or exploitative it just winds up being excessive and unneeded, irregardless of the intent. I also fail to see how the music video fulfills the artistic merit of the song for Tunnel Vision. Isn't the entire point of the song that "all he can see is her", if so why are there multiple random naked women all within the video, basically watering down the message that the one woman in particular is special?

JT did it to be taken seriously as an "artist." Robin is clearly just having fun with it. Frankly, I like the second approach WAY more.
