That Rihanna leak wasn’t impressive, but this sure is. Justin Timberlake has always been a shining beacon for pop music salvation, and “Bigger Than The World” is as beautiful as pop music can get. The all-too-familiar production (some kind of “Lovestoned” and “Until The End of Time” mesh) and Justin’s sweet, sweet melodies make for a warm welcome and hopeful 2009 for Justin as true pop royalty.
I’m excited about this one and I’m hoping to God this cut get’s a sexy revamp (and a proper lyrics change — take this great song JT! don’t sell it!) and makes it to his upcoming album. Here’s to one of the best entertainers in the world.

This is absolutely brilliant. Classis JT. I sure hope his upcoming album will top FutureSex/LoveSounds which was already a great album IMO.
I agree the track needs a revamp, this is nice, but its not the future sound, or forward progression I was hoping for from Mr. JT. You know he’s got it, and we’ll hear it everywhere very soon.
Great song, thanks for this! Love the synths that kick in around 1:30. And that pic never gets old….
no it doesnt…
actually it wasnt that great for me
cool little back beat, but nothing really memorable about the melody or lyrics.
well, thats just my opinion, and thats just after one listen. usually justin’s songs are just so damn catchy it really only takes one listen but we’ll see if this is a grower.
It was ok. Might be a ’slow-burner’
Solid song, i think
Hmm… music a little low key for me…but the photo??? Yabba! That’s quite the package in those trousers
I think this is demo for a female singer. (Maybe Esme?) – not meant for his new album.
I got that. But my whole point with this post was to point out how fantastic this song is.
But you know, Jesse McCartney wrote Bleeding Love. maybe some songs are just meant to be girl songs.
But I really love it — maybe Esme can do it justice.
i was really disappointed
i wanted to be able to dance and have it a good time
reminds too much of an early 90’s boy band song…
Justin,
Want me to sing this one for you?
Head in the Clouds
Sorry, but this is an epic fail for me. I’m no longer feeling Justin or Usher. I guess I have grown and progressed while they continue to regress. I will stick with the folks who actually say something and Justin is not one of those people.
Relax Ashley, its just a demo. Most likely not for him (based on the lyrics “Now I know I’m just a girl”) However if it is for him, then I can guarantee it’s a long way off finished. Maybe you’re not feeling Justin because you expect much more from him than any other artist… Same goes for Usher. ‘Here I Stand’ was leaked a week before it was due to be released… In that time his album was illegally downloaded (in full) more than a million times. If even half of those who downloaded it bought it instead, in its opening week that would’ve ensured top spot on Billboard 200, and many people would change their tune on the album based on the increased commercial success it would’ve had. Not many people have the level of success JT and Usher have, and with FutureSex/Lovesounds spawning 3 US#1s and a total of 6 US Top 20s (First time this was done since MJ released ‘Dangerous’ which had 8 top 20s, and the time before that it was MJ again with ‘Bad’, also with 8 Top 20s) I don’t think you could call what he has achieved as ‘epic failure’. As I said, relax… You won’t be disappointed.
the song bigger than the world is wrote For Esmée denters for her new Album called outta here
