Sometime around the middle of last week I found Justin Timberlake’s album FutureSex/LoveSounds stuffed under the front seat of the car I recently bought. It was the previous owners but just between you and I, I always preferred JLake on his own.
This may come as quite a shock to some of you that have been visiting my small corner of the internet for a while. I post music here and there so to find that I indeed enjoy a bit of JLake every once and a while might set you on edge. Have no fear. Let me explain.
As I mentioned, I have indeed listened to the album before but never to such a degree as I have in the past week. Since I only have two cd’s I don’t really have much of a choice.
The album itself is brilliant. Except for a few minor things which slowly over time began to drive me fucking insane. They are the following.
Yet, I digress.
Jesus H. Christ JLake, what were you thinking? You say “Girl” 95 fucking times. Is that word essential to your album? Do the women in your life have names? Do you own a fucking thesaurus?
Just out of curiosity I used this handy dandy little website called http://www.thesaurus.com/ (which we all know JLake has access to) and found that the word “Girl” has 13 synonyms while “Broad” (which I find much funnier, because who would really use that word in a love song) has 18 synonyms.
JLake, you are a genius but for god sakes please find yourself a thesaurus or someone to sit in while you record a song so that they can find that threshold between hearing you croon “Girl” just enough times and when they hear it so many times they want to pour lava into their ears and run around screaming “MAKE IT STOP! MAKE IT STOP!”.

- The word “Yeah” is used a total of 38 times. Approx. 3 times per song.
- The word “Baby” is used a total of 37 times. Ditto.
- The word “Girl” is used an astounding total of 95 times. Approx. 8 times per song.
