"Good Kisser" is a great jam. I'm excited for this though.

YES @ "I Don't Mind" not being the 2nd single. I'm just happy about that.

Lets me hope its a return to form by Usher, but something about it is leading to believe its in the same line as the other two songs I heard from this album.

Usher described the song as a "doper 'Blurred Lines' or 'Happy'" "up tempo".

Usher described the song as a "doper 'Blurred Lines' or 'Happy'" "up tempo". Hate both of those. Usher, you've lost me :'( Not to mention songs described as versions of existing smashes never live up to it. Much of why a song becomes a smash is because it's fresh. A re-creation is not "fresh." |

Hopefully this is as hot as Lil Freak. That song is soooooo underrated.

I agree if he going to recreate anything how about he start with his own resume first. Crossover king yes, stripper pole prince nope.

He should have put Nicki on the strip club song.

I didn't like Good Kisser very much, so I hope this is a jam :)

It's a more uptempo version of Blurred Lines. Very MJ.

I like the melody bit of "JUST BE GOOD TO ME" -- Probably his best chance at a multi format hit.
I like it alot.

Love it now! I am hoping that the other Pharrell productions are more left-field though.

I actually love the production. Really fun track. I just wish his enunciation was a little better, his vocals are kinda slurry.

Probably the best thing Pharrell has done in recent memory. I absolutely love it. The Michael Jackson comparisons were on point.

I like it more than "Blurred Lines" actually, which I hated. Not sure if I like it more than "Good Kisser" yet but I can see myself growing to like it more.

I really like it. This is definitely the best song I've heard from this project. It doesn't exactly scream hit to me though.

I'm pleasantly surprised. This is easily my favorite of the three songs we've heard so far, which says something because this isn't my usual R&B style. It's catchy as hell and certainly in line with recent radio trends. I just hope it doesn't get written off as a "Blurred Lines" meets "Sing" knockoff because 1) it's much better and 2) "Blurred Lines" itself was actually a knockoff of Usher's "Twisted" so if anyone other than Pharrell should get credit for this sound it is Mr. Raymond.
The main problem in terms of radio? The chorus doesn't pop out enough. After listening only once, the verses and beat are drilled in my head but I can't recall the hook yet.

This is nice. Sounds like Madonna's "The Beat Goes On" though (also produced by Pharrell).
