This was a single from his album, "Raymond v. Raymond." It was written and produced by will.i.am. It was the biggest hit from the album, peaking at #1 on the Hot 100, #1 in the UK, #2 at CHR/Pop and #3 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. This was good enough for the time. I wouldn't go out of my way to listen to it now though.

It's my least favorite out of the four first singles from that era, but I still like it.
I wasn't that shocked to hear Usher sing over an electro beat.

I've always loved this, their styles meshed a lot better than most will admit.

This is my favorite Usher song! The crowd noise in the back is so cool, and I just love the music. Thankfully, two of my local radio stations have this in gold rotation!  |

I never cared for the original version of the song at all. It was everything I have hated in an Usher song especially if will.i.am is involved. I preferred the Almighty remix. It was a little cheesy and over-the-top but it worked.

Still bitter at how this blocked Airplanes from #1.

I liked hearing this on the radio that summer but I've never really listened to it outside of that. I remember early on not even realizing that Will.I.Am was on the song. Just thought it was some weird vocal effect put on Usher's voice lol

One of the best #1s ever. The first great song of the decade.

Enjoyed it at the time but it aged poorly. It's very 2010 in a bad way.
