2. the fcc was gonna allow fu cking on tv / radio at some point ?? that's so wild to me, especially when words like sh it / goddamn / asshole have always been censored growing up and bitch / ass / even damn are often bleeped as well There's a difference between what the FCC allows and what some stations choose to censor on their own. true but the fact that things are, if anything, moving in a stricter direction suggests that the zeitgeist was in a VERY different place 20 years ago

true but the fact that things are, if anything, moving in a stricter direction suggests that the zeitgeist was in a VERY different place 20 years ago What evidence is there to suggest that the FCC is moving in a stricter direction in terms of "indecency"? (I put that in quotes because I find the whole notion of calling an exposed nipple "indecent" to be ridiculous.) I certainly haven't seen any. FCC control is determined by the president. Typically, when a Democrat is president, the FCC will take stricter views on preventing conglomeration and laxer views on indecency, whereas when a Republican is president (as was George W. Bush when the Super Bowl incident occurred), the FCC will take laxer views on preventing conglomeration and stricter views on indecency. I've seen nothing to suggest things are moving in a stricter direction on indecency... In fact, I'd suggest quite the opposite. If that Super Bowl incident were to occur today, while I'm sure it'd be all over social media, I can't imagine today's FCC responding anywhere near as insanely as the FCC of 20 years ago did back then.

Don't know why people are hating. This is easily a top 5 alltime JT song for me.

If Justin was to blame with Britney's and Janet's downfalls, then those two women didn't have strong careers to begin with. Imagine typing this out with a straight face when both Britney and Janet have far bigger career stats than him, lmao.

This is one of his best songs ever. I am really hopeful about album right now. Curious about callout scores for this one.

This is a thread that should be discussing the song Selfish. Seems like all people are doing is bashing Justin Timberlake personally. I know there's a lot of hate in this forum because of Britney and the Janet incident but still, this is a thread about Justin's song Selfish.

Oh no please do not discuss Justin Timberlake on the Justin Timberlake thread.
To pretend the "controversy" has no impact on his new music is delusional.

I hope this at least goes top 10. I think they need to pull out all the stops and do some key Valentine's Day promotions. I am still a hopeless romantic, which is why I love this song so much. It's simple, yet effective. Definitely excited for the rest of the album. Sanctified is solid.

I do like the song itself, but I'm over Justin after Janet and Britney.

I think this is his softest leading single debut in his entire career. This could signal his weakest opening numbers ever, and a smaller fanbase than he had even prior to his debut album.
It's hard to look at this from a business perspective because there's no best-case scenario to proceed with. RCA shot everything into this from the radio side, so his follow-up isn't likely to get the same attention, budget, and space that this got. However, this is nowhere on streaming. Its chart points are lopsided, and it's going to show in the next chart cycles. I guess their strategy is to stick with this until radio is done with it and hope streaming bounces back with the album drop. However how long is that going to work if the song just isn't resonating?
A new single could do better on streaming, but it will have an uphill battle on radio and sales. That might be what would benefit the album most going forward putting out a better second single that audiences are more gung-ho about.

I need to go back and look at Filthy's run because I thought that was a MASSSIVE bomb. Though, unpopular opinion, I like it lol. It used to be a fixture on my workout mix. Edit: Ok, apparently Filthy and this had a very, very similar run so far except Filthy looked like it did better on streaming (top 10 for awhile where I do not think this went top 10 on Spotify?). Both had massive bullets that propelled them to around the 14-16 mark and then very sudden slow downs. Also, Filthy debuted at #9 on Billboard (which everyone declared an embarrassing flop). It will be interesting to see if this sticks around longer than Filthy. I do think it is less polarizing and a bit safer for radio, so it may not hit the brick wall that Filthy did.

Yeah I just had to check, and apparently Man of the Woods is a #1 album with 2 top 10 hits. Could've fooled me.

Yeah I am kind of surprised because I just remember that entire era feeling like one big flop. But, I guess we were comparing it to his earlier, much more successful eras.
