What Parents Should Know
Parents need to know that although it hails from the sultry
album
FutureSex/LoveSounds
, the single "Until the End of Time" is free of any sexy
stuff.
Note: The video shows steamy, sexual situations -- girls in
lingerie, a lot of touching, seductive poses, and Timberlake
and a woman having sex in bed (you don't see everything, but
it's very clear what's going on).
Families can talk about the perception of these two young, highly successful performers and what they think has made them so successful in pop culture today. Also, families can talk about why a video needs to push the envelope when its song is clean and tame. Do you think there's a standard of sexiness and/or risqué images that needs to be in every music video? Who encourages this -- TV, society, or the artist? Do you think a video would have enough impact without the shock value?
Common Sense Media ReviewJustin Timberlake
and Beyonce have teamed up to create a hot remix of the single "Until the End of Time," a song from J.T.'s hit album FutureSex/LoveSounds . The duet is the first single from a deluxe edition of FutureSex. It has a mellow, slow, but sexy beat that allows two fantastic singers to sing some sweet lyrics. This song is about love, and how sometimes that's all we need: "If your love was all I had in life/that would be enough until the end of time/There is so much darkness in the world/but I see beauty left in you girl/and what you give me lets me know/that'll be alright." It was a good song before when it was only Justin singing; now it just has a little Beyonce spice added for extra flavor.
