It is so similar to N'sync's "Girlfriend" but in all the right ways.

lol the verses remind me of the whisper song

lol it totally does sound like the whisper song!
i find that i feel a weird relief that biebs has finally made a decent song (maybe even a great one) - you knew it was gonna happen sooner or later and now here it is.

hang on did bieber really just exclaim "BURR!"

This song is not as good as "Somebody to Love."

I've been loving Bieber for years now. Way to catch up.

Well, no, I still like him with a low voice. But the thrill is gone.
― hot and brothered (Eric H.), Monday, 26 March 2012 18:20 (twelve years ago) link
this is produced really well, they layer his vocals nicely in places
― J0rdan S., Monday, 26 March 2012 18:20 (twelve years ago) link
he's put out some good stuff before but i thought it would be at least another album cycle before he made his 'justified' move
― J0rdan S., Monday, 26 March 2012 18:21 (twelve years ago) link
It's weird to say, but I like his performance on this way better than I actually like the song.
OK, feds take me away.

by far the most interesting thing i've seen from this commodity:

Noam Chomski @NoamChomski Bieber is not going to tell young girls about feminism or Beauvoir's books, he is going to tell them about having fun and consuming.

i find that i feel a weird relief that biebs has finally made a decent song (maybe even a great one)Runaway Love is a great song.

i only really like the remix w/ raekwon & kanye but i agree the remix is a great song

I love the sound of "Boyfriend" -- it really does feel like a return to production styles of ca. 2002-04 -- but I wish there was more of a tune here.
― Cuba Pudding, Jr. (jaymc), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 04:39 (twelve years ago) link
more of a tune? it's one of the most immediately catchy things i've heard this year
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 08:30 (twelve years ago) link
i'm putting on an r&b night tonight and i'm gonna play this and not tell anyone what it is
― lex pretend, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 09:59 (twelve years ago) link
parts of this new bieber sound are remarkably similar to jesse mccartney
― pearsonic, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 12:20 (twelve years ago) link
My thoughts exactly. Otoh I can see that they had to do *something*, "My World"'s production/angle/songwriting was tethered to his pre-pubescent voice. I just wish I could say I liked this more than, uh, anything off "Justified".
― mom in the woods (Ówen P.), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 13:15 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, if we're extending the Justified comparison, I just wish it was closer to "Like I Love You" than to a back-half track like "Right for Me."
― Cuba Pudding, Jr. (jaymc), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 13:49 (twelve years ago) link
is 'the justified move' the most overrated thing ever? it's possible.
this is fine but i'm not that enthusiastic about it.

― Estimate the percent chance that a whale has ever been to the moon? (frogbs), Wednesday, 28 March 2012 15:19 (twelve years ago) link
kind of feels like Bieber's entire career since the moment he got signed is about riding out The Other Justin's arc and making the Justified move feel like a grim inevitability
― some dude, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 15:26 (twelve years ago) link
Yeah, if we're extending the Justified comparison, I just wish it was closer to "Like I Love You" than to a back-half track like "Right for Me."Why's everyone always dissin Right For Me?
― billstevejim, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 18:30 (twelve years ago) link
Has anyone since Timberlake been in a position to utilize "the Justified move"? As if this is something that's happened more than once?
― billstevejim, Wednesday, 28 March 2012 18:32 (twelve years ago) link
it kinda depends on whether you think the key context of that album is the move from pop to R&B, from group member to solo star, from teenpop star to universal/'adult' pop icon, or whether it applies equally to female acts etc. lots of artists before or since have had rough parallels in some of those categories, Bieber's just probably the most at once (although he was never in a group).

There's part of the talky vocals that reminds me of David Banner's Play. That's the only thing I dislike about it.

"Boyfriend" bows at #2 this week, making it his highest-charting single.

I like-not-love it. Although he stands accused or is praised for Justinism, Timberlake in 2002 positioned himself as a sex dawg and hired Clipse; Bieber gets down on one knee to assure her of his gentlemanly credentials. The guy's still courting the G to PG crowd.

same here. it's more Celebrity Justin than Justified Justin. baby steps.
