My track by track review of Schizophrenic (my new favorite cd)

Some Girls- Not the best song on the album, but good nonetheless.
She Got Me- Sounds like it could be a Justin song. The fact that it's about an alien amuses me
100 Ways- this one takes some getting used to. This the only one I'm truly feeling the Prince vibe on (i'm not familiar with early prince though so I wouldn't really be one to judge) Does a nice job of showing off his range
Mercy- despite the fact that JC repeats the same lines over and over again (seriously, he says he'd sell his sould like, 6 times. Yes JC, we get it) I like this song. Like what he does with the vocals
Build My World- not really a big fan of this song. Does the line "a foundation of gravity and freedom" bother anyone else? What does the downward pull of the earth have anything to with anything?
Something Special- I think this one would make a good single. It's incredibly catchy. I cannot help sing along with that 'nanana' part.
If You Were My Girl- after much deliberation, I have decided that this is my favorite song on the cd. Even though I have no clue what the heck he's saying in the first verse
Shake It- my least favorite song on the cd. it doesn't really feel like him to me (maybe because he didn't write it?) that and the smurf singing at the end bothers me
All Day Long I Dream About Sex- can I begin to tell you how much I love this song? The synth-pop, the lyrics.....I love it. That is all. Not sure whether radio will embrace it or not. I hope so.
One Night Stand- gotta have a good sense of humor to appreciate this one. I do, so it's all good. I find it highly amusing, if nothing else.
Come to Me- have I ever mentioned how much i love 80s music? I read a review once that said this sampled from "Sweet Dreams". yea they sound alike, but do a little research first, hello. A nice take on Sunglasses At Night. And the masturbate line doesn't bother me.
Dear Goodbye- this one makes me want to cry every time I hear it. It's such a beautiful song, and so sad.
Everything You Want- love this one too. Wouldn't have thought reggae would work for JC, but it does, and well. Makes you want to dance.
Lose Myself- another pretty ballad. Do JC's ballads need explaination?
Right Here By Your Side- or is it just 'right here'? whatever. this song is too short. Very cute, but any song under 3:30 is too short for me.
Blowin Me Up- for some reason, I don't feel like this fits the rest of the cd.
Some Girls Remix- ODB sucks. That's all. Though- they included the speaker sound which got somehow left out of track 1.

And for bonus...
Slept w/ My Best Friend- should have been on the album. Damn. Treated me like -- What?! :D
Right There- not sure what I think of this one yet. Basement Jaxx did this one, I'm feelin


oo quick note- I finally obtained a Jasaon Mraz poster! YAY!
