Lyrics:
http://rapgenius.com/Justin-timberlake-mirrors-lyrics

Aren't you somethin' to admire
Cause your shine is somethin' like a mirror
And I can't help but notice
You reflect in this heart of mine
If you ever feel alone and
The glare makes me hard to find
Just know that I'm always
Parallel on the other side

Cause with your hand in my hand and a pocket full of soul
I can tell you there's no place we couldn't go
Just put your hand on the past
I'm here tryin' to pull you through
You just gotta be strong

Cause I don't wanna lose you now
I'm lookin' right at the other half of me
The biggest scene is set in my heart
There's a space, but now you're home
Show me how to fight for now
And I'll tell you, baby, it was easy
Comin' back into you once I figured it out
You were right here all along
It's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me
I couldn't get any bigger
With anyone else beside me
And now it's clear as this promise
That we're making
Two reflections into one
Cause it's like you're my mirror
My mirror staring back at me, staring back at me

Aren't you somethin', an original
Cause it doesn't seem really as simple
And I can't help but stare, cause
I see truth somewhere in your eyes
I can't ever change without you
You reflect me, I love that about you
And if I could, I
Would look at us all the time

Yesterday is history
Tomorrow's a mystery
I can see you lookin' back at me
Keep your eyes on me
Baby, keep your eyes on me

You are, you are the love of my life

Baby, you're the inspiration for this precious song
And I just wanna see your face light up since you put me on
So now I say goodbye to the old me, it's already gone
And I can't wait wait wait wait wait to get you home
Just to let you know, you are

Girl you're my reflection, all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do
You're my reflection and all I see is you
My reflection, in everything I do
 
What a terrible song. It's like he's trying to recreate 2006.

I expected JT to come back with something fresh. Something to live up to his
over
hype and demonstrate that he could still be a creative force in music.

So far all of his new music sounds like B-Sides of his old shit. Wack.

Though I suppose we should have expected this when we learned that he'd be teaming up with Timberland. Working with Timberland in 2013? #WhereTheyDoThatAt
 
Two polarizing opinions after the first two replies. I'll be the tiebreaker. brb

edit: This song is middle of the road quality for JT. Still good though
 
Is he even trying? Very blatant retread on "Cry me a River" and "What Goes Around". Except minus the iconic beats and chorus. I guess I should've been expecting this when it was revealed he partnered with Timbo again. Yuck.

JT... you disappoint. Can't believe this is coming from the same guy who gave us "FutureSex/LoveSounds"....
 
Say what you want, but at least Xina had the balls Justin seemingly lacks by making new music. Not carbon copies of her old shit.

She's also has enough balls to get repeated implants to make herself look like the michelin tire man.

Even the Fatters want to forget about Stripped Part Deux:

Seriously that ending. I've listened to it twice now and holy shit... This might have just beat out Bowie as my most wanted album of the year.
 
says the guy named after some pop chick that no one cares about.


EDIT: Whoa That Girl is good. Pop-gaf you guys are fucking crazy.

Feels like a bunch of fan girls clawing at you.
 
Also isn't it possible JT was contractually obligated to release another album? These may very well be shitty songs that just didn't make the cut on his last go-round.
