Your eyes have been blessedt. Never wash them.
I'm going to thoroughly enjoy bumping this post in a few weeks when you're wrong.
Until then, stay classy.
GAF, Aaliyah's Behind the Music just came on VH1...
Now excuse my while I go listen to her flawless discography.
Favorite song?
At your Best, We Need a Resolution and 4 Page Letter. Yours?

Eh, once again I gotta give praise to Timbaland. The songs of her that I like are "We Need A Resolution" and "More than a Woman". Both the result of that moment when Timbaland uncovered his magic touch to give songs an absolutely insane beat, and let all the rest of the song be centered around it. It's when I discovered Timbaland's genius as a producer.
The rest of Aaliyah's discography is typical American R&B from the nineties. Monotone and boring. It does nothing for me.
Edit: I forgot "Are you that somebody". Another great song, and surprise surprise, it's a Timbaland production.
Heh.
I don't really have one; I'm really only semi-familiar with some of her singles work. I was looking for suggestions!
Yup its when Timbaland showed Piano Man aka Rodney aka Darkchild that he aint the only dude with the hot urban beats.

I'm bailing out preemptively.
Yes to all of these.
I saw her BTM again on Sunday, and had my re-listen then.
More than a Woman is my favorite song of hers though.

Timbalame did his only good work with Aaliyah.
Also, I'm happy Cyno's back. It'll class up the joint.

The last couple of months have been "she will" and "she will not" back and forth gossip.
Waiting for Cow-ell's word.
Nelly Furtado is offended by this comment.
Agreed.
Timberland's production around 2005-2006 got tired FAST, but it was good.
Still, he'll never top his 90s stuff. His stuff with Missy? God-tier Hip Hop production.
Beep Me 911 is probably my favorite of his production, and coincidentally one of my favorite Missy songs. GOD I'm glad Missy's dropping an album this year to put a certain reductive Hip-Hop-Pop-Ho in her place...

Excuse me?
Aaliyah + Missy Elliott --> Justin Timberlake --> Nelly Furtado. This is how Timbaland's Legacy of Awesome™ goes.
Don't underestimate how great this man's work has been, just because he fell of a cliff musically after 2008.

This is his magnum opus though, js

I'm not surprised that is a 2010 song.
Honorable mention to his stuff with Genuwine.
Pony's beat is iconic, and So Anxious still makes my panties drop when the bass kicks in.

I know there's a fair amount of irony in this stanning game but...this is just too much for me

And while I'm not that big a fan of the song in general, and I know even less of the artist Bubba Sparxxx, Timbaland did make -once again- an amazing beat for the song Ugly.
Bubba Sparxxx - Ugly
Seriously. Timbaland completely owned the late '90s and 2000s, and in my opinion is partly responsible for bringing the appeal of r&b/rap and pop music together.

Is that why a Canadian has the top selling album of all time by a female?She is Canadian and therefore irrelevant.
... I didn't even know Nelly is from Canada.

I wasn't being ironic... It was either that song or this one and Katy won the coin tossI know there's a fair amount of irony in this stanning game but...this is just too much for me
And the second and third highest selling albums of all time by a female?OMG I always wanted to use this gif:
Canadian too.
Y'all need to accept the Maple Leaf world we live in.

I didn't realize being a judge on a talent show suddenly became a badge of honor. Shouldn't these girls be making music instead?

Every second that judging a talent show keeps Xtincta from creating any more "music" is a blessing.

Ho ho ho, obvious joke is obvious.
Even if it's swimming in a pile of shit, perhaps there's a little gem of a song you might also like. That alone is worth new music from Christina.

Aw.
I want more Blackouts and Femme Fatales. She better give us something amazing in 2013 then.Still think that Cry Me A River, Pass that Dutch, and Are you That Somebody are the greatest that Timbaland has ever done. Those songs' beats are just so sick, have so much bounce, and are so re-listenable. Yeah. Late 90s early 00s Timbaland was incredible.
A time when Justin used to give a fuck about his music career.

I see that caveat. You can try to deny the MJ juggernaut but when even Meat Loaf outsells your faves?
I'm surprised you still care about sales numbers.
