Album Review: The 20/20 Experience by Justin Timberlake

It's been 6 long years since Justin Timberlake's last album FutureSex/LoveSounds. During that time, he has acted in the movies The Social Network, Bad Teacher, and Friends With Benefits, wrote songs for Duran Duran and The Loneley Island, and gotten married to actress Jessica Biel. Oh yeah, he was also writing his 3rd and 4th albums, not to mention the least. The will be titled The 20/20 Experience Parts 1 & 2. Each album will have 10 songs, therefore eventually becoming 20 songs. Part 1 released this week, while Part 2 is slated for a November 2013 release. I'm just happy that Timberlake has come SexyBack. (;

The first track on the album is "Pusher Love Girl." Like almost all of his songs, it is about love. When I first heard the song, I thought "What a way to start off an album after hiatus." It starts out with a nice arrangement of strings and then Timberlake starts singing. Like all his songs, it is a song about love. One of my favorite songs on the album is "Suit & Tie." It was Timberlake's first single after hiatus and features rapper Jay-Z. The song is basically saying "What happens in a tux, stays in the tux."

"Don't Hold The Wall" is the album's third track. The track features vocals from Timberlake's producer Timbaland. Its a nice poppy soul song that is very catchy, like most of the album. The song is telling the girl not to just hang on the wall and to dance instead. In "Strawberry Bubblegum," Timberlake is comparing a girl's lips to strawberry bubblegum. I don't know why he made this comparison, but it is a very enjoyable song.

"Tunnel Vision" is track number 5 on the album. I love the lyrics in the song. In the song, Timberlake is "zooming in" so close to a girl, that she is the one person and thing he sees. "Spaceship Coupe" is a very cool song lyrically, once again. It's saying that he wants to alienate him and the girl he is flying into space with. Their coupe only fits the two of them, so their is plenty of room.

"That Girl" is a song in where Timberlake says he in love with a girl, and she says that she is in love with him as well. He doesn't care what people say about them, he loves the girl and will stay together with her forever. "Let The Groove Get In" is my favorite song on the entire album! It is a freakin catchy song that I will keep listening to. If you're gonna buy one song from the album, I HIGHLY suggest this one.

"Mirrors," the album's 9th track, is also the album's second single. In the song, Timberlake compares a girl to a mirror. She is so perfect for him, that whenever he sees her, he feels like is looking in a mirror and sees himself. The final track on the album is "Blue Ocean Floor." In the song, he wants to go to the ocean floor with a girl, so she is safe from everything and nobody can harm her.

This is an amazing album. I know I have said that before, but it is completely true!! It is Soulish-Pop and You need to get this album. I say it is Maroon 5 mixed with Michael Buble. Its crazy cause every song on the album is 4:30 or longer. The whole album turns out to be an hour and 10 minutes. All I have to say is, GET THIS NOW!
