Finally managed to listen to the whole thing, i think I liked about 3 songs, the rest are just meh, background music to when im doing something

Today I bought the CD and I did like the album, classic RnB sounding. I love it!

will only be able to properly hear it once it's on Spotify.

Justin Timberlake scores the fastest selling album of 2013 so far, and his third Number 1, with The 20/20 Experience.

How do you follow three consecutive weeks at Number 1 on the Official Singles Chart?

If you’re the unstoppable Justin Timberlake you simply go and bring home the fastest selling album of the year, too! Chart domination complete. Following three weeks at the top of the Official Singles Chart, the US superstar now secures his third UK Number 1 album in a row with The 20/20 Experience.

Notching up sales of nearly 106,000 copies this week, the album which features two Top 5 singles (Suit & Tie and Number 1 Mirrors) today takes its place as the fastest selling album of 2013, toppling reigning title holder David Bowie’s The Next Day. The 20/20 Experience has outsold the rest of this week’s Official Albums Chart Top 5 combined.

David Bowie slips one place to Number 2 with The Next Day, while Emeli Sande holds steady at Number 3 with Our Version Of Events. The Motion Picture Cast Recording of Les Miserables bounces up six places to Number 4 following the release of a new deluxe edition earlier this week, and Bastille’s Bad Blood (Number 5) completes this week’s Official Albums Chart Top 5.

well done to him
I still haven't listened to the album properly D:

Will listen to it fully sometime but not a fan of the few I have listened to. Except of course for Mirrors. Loving that song.

on course to sell a million... upgraded from 500K expectations :o

If you count the n*sync albums this will be his third 1 million first week seller :o

Don't think it'll hit a million, probably be just under

Yeah was just reading that....but still 900K after a 6 year break and terrible first single (IMO) is mega....

I love Suit & Tie/Mirrors :love:

Go on Smithy buy 19k to help him

I listened to it today and quite liked it but it's nothing special, Blue Ocean Floor is lovely

Thats fairly impressive....part 2 of the album could do a lot better now that people have refamiliarised themselves with him.

He could do with a few 'Rock Your Body' 'LoveStoned' or 'My Love' type songs on there..

LoveStoned and Rock Your Body :love: his best songs
Just compare the videos to the video for Mirrors and you can understand why I despise it

Underwhelming for the hype it got.

I think the second one'll flop cause people'll realise they've bought a crap album

It's an awful album, self indulgent and overlong. Most songs overstay their welcome and they just don't justify the length.

Less is ultimately more, I hope he applies that adage to the next album.

just gave it a listen.. only 3 or 4 songs that i really liked

it's FINALLY ON SPOTIFY

I need to download this at some point

Just finished listening to it

Pusher Lover Girl - 5.5/10 - meh, and it goes on for too long
Suit & Tie - 5.9/10 - it's ok but underwhelming
Don't Hold The Wall - 6.5 - I like the beat but the song feels a bit repetitive. It had potential to be really good
Strawberry Bubblegum - 6/10 - Not bad at all, quite catchy
Tunnel Vision - 6/10 - I like it, this is nice
Spaceship Coupe - 5/10 - pretty crap
That Girl - 6/10 - nothing special
Let The Groove Get In - 8/10 - one of the standouts on the album, very catchy and I love the beat :love: finally something with life
Mirrors - 8/10 - very good, though the video is making me start to dislike it lmao, whoever directed it needs to be try out a new proffession
Blue Ocean Floor - 5.9/10 - it's exactly like Get It Over With, the tune is quite pleasant and soothing but it seems to go on forever, and in a weird way that's what make it sort of endearing
Dress On - 5/10 - got bored and skipped it after a minute
Body Count - 5/10 - repetitive, had potential to be something good

Overall the album's very average, I'd give it a 5.5/10. There's very few standouts are the majority of songs sound the same and are forgettable. Pretty much dog poo compared to FS/LS and Justified
