Product came within days of ordering, was in great condition, and there were no problems with it. I would buy from this seller again.

I didnt understand why Here I Stand didnt do well. I loved all of the songs. This album is one of those rare albums where you dont skip any tracks and just let it play. The only song I skip is Prayer for you but its just an interlude and its dedicated to his sons. BUT BUY IT!!! YOU WQNT BE DISAPPOINTED. I think people were just hating on his new marriage lifestyle and that made their decision to not be a fan of this album...which is dumb..... OH yeah and lifetime is also one you would skip.

I clearly must not be Ushers target audience, since everyone seemed to think this album sucked. I thought it was amazing. I personally liked it much better than Confessions and Raymond vs Raymond.

I think this album is excellent...IS THIS HIS BEST, no...he has moRe to come, but this album is just as good. i think its for more of a mature vibe, keeping it with the audience of today. i think this album as with any artist is dealing with the time of an artist life and the whole album signifies that, I think if you dont get it you will rate low, because Ummm--->you dont get it..Usher cant throw out the same kind-of album every-time, if anything this album shows his growth and as a fan I WELCOME THAT. Most of his songs have the same vibes as the other albums hes done in the past, this is just another CHAPTER.

Love in This Club: Excellent, nice steady beat with a vibe that you can snap your finger to...Love the video to.

This Aint Sex: This groove made me think of Bad Girls from Confessions...good vibe.

Trading Places: A nice flow to the album as well, very Usher...mid-tempo-slow, mellow with nice hooks.

Moving Mountains: Nice n slow with...a mellow far away beat.

Whats Your Name: With artist: Will I am...a nice head moving beat, nice hooks.

Prayer For You Interlude--shows a grown side to Usher, a little melody...a soft and tender flow.

Something Special: I love this, this is a throw back...and a classic, with meaningful hooks and a snappy tune. We used to call these songs the B sides back n the day, and funny enough when music was real..its was always the classic...on the record.

Love You Gently: A soft, nice sexy mellow tune, for the ladies, shows his adulthood and growth.

Best Thing featuring Jay Z: Its a mellow beat with some up tempo tones, pretty good, shows the diversity of the album.

Before I Met You: Another one of those songs, that is pretty mellow with up tone beats.

His Mistakes: Shows a softer side of Usher, with some up tempo beats.

Appetite: Up tempo, nice hooks as well....goes with the line-up of the album.

Whats A Man To Do: Another song I like allot: has up tempo beats with an Arabic-kind-of mid-tempo in the back, it really sounds Siberian...the flow of the song sounds good while driving in your car.

Lifetime: Another song I really like: Mid-tempo, flowing beat, the words are memorable and the flow of the beats meshes well with the album.

Love In This Club Part II featuring Beyoncé & Lil Wayne: Like the original...I hate Beyonce, this is the one song I skip. My advice listen to the original.

Here I Stand: Love this song, A memorable song we can enjoy for years to come. This shows his versatility of singing a classic and songs that are for the moment..THIS IS A CLASSIC.

Besides, having nasty Beyonce on his album, I enjoyed the album. If I get rated for saying that and get Beyonce Lovers to comment...SO WHAT, WE ALL DONT LIKE BEYONCE, get oVeR it.

Over all, this album to me was great!!! If your thinking of buying this, FIRST listen to the songs listed on your site before you ~listen to the negative raters.

Considering not only his lack of ability to create a consistantly well flowing album but his becomming a father this album actually finds Usher in a very good musical place following his hugely successful Confessions. There are a number of songs that have this contemporary hip-hop/R&B epic kind of sound thats a little overdone in his case and of course that provided him with the single Love In This Club. Now I realize that Usher is having to compete in an R&B world thats heavily populated with a lot of people mining the exact same style to get onto the Top 10 but by this time its growing a little tired frankly. Its within the album tracks,what some might call filler that the best moments of this album reveal themselves to me. This Aint Sex is a really strong disco-funk jam that is married to strong writing,really strong singing and a great direction for Usher. Whats Your Name with Will I AM provides a heavier electro dance flavor again in keeping with a good direction musically. Something Special has this kind of hooky soulful shuffle to it and strong midtempo rhythm. Interestingly enough this entire album focuses on the subject of Usher wanting to be a good family man and not give into the temptations around him. Because of the strong edge to his lyrical attack he doesnt come off at all as emmasculated and somewhat wimpy the way a lot of male R&B stars have become when tackling the same subject matter. One of the best songs here not only musically but in this same lyrical concept is His Mistakes where Usher assures a lady that he loves her and not to place him in the same catagory as her unfaithful ex because of her past resentment. It showcases that blend of sensitivity and self assuradness that is a necessity with both partners in any romantic coupling. Lifetime is not only sensual and sensative but Usher provides it with a beautifully and somewhat darkly chorded sound that only does the best for what the song is trying to say. The closing title is an equally passionate ballad again with a great mix of intensity,passion and heart. This album has enough strong moments to indicate a positive musical future for Usher. So even if some of its more contemporary elements that made it a hit arent its strongest to me theres more than enough to please pretty much any kind of R&B fan here.
