I'm listening to it for the second time and really liking it. I like the way there's buildup to the big songs, the opening track is like a sprawling overture for the tighter high impact Sexyback, and he does a similar thing with My Love. The whole thing flows really well, it's much more of a cohesive unit than Justified was, progressing from ultra cold synth stuff to more organic sounding ballads at the end. I'm going to need to give it a few more listens, but so far it's very impressive.

I can't believe it took my til just now to realise that one line in this song is 'I'll let you whip me if I misbehave.'

I really like the Papoose remix, too, even though I don't think his abrupt shouty flow suits it very well (although it might be the only way to ride that beat), and none of the lyrics are especially good.

I love that line.

And I would, too. Only if he wore his dress clothes.

I actually really dislike that line, preceded as it is by something about his being somebody's slave. I'm aware that it is probably not a reference to slavery in the American south but that's the first thing that came to my mind. Just a personal twinge, not an accusation. Can't stop dancing to 'My Love' though.

oh god i love this album.

I mean, it's still all about "My Love" for now, but I'm only halfway through. But the whole thing is so... coherent. Sorry I'm so late to the party, folks...

You're late?! I only bought it yesterday. I should have a coherent opinion by tomorrow.
