ok I so I had to hightail it to a computer lab because I would NOT be able to go to sleep without announcing that Usher's new track "Let It Burn," which I've just heard for the first time while walking home from work, will probably make my top ten singles of 2004. Maybe the second hearing will reveal some disappointing element, but the interweaving vocals, the lyrical content and the moment where Usher lets you hear him cry - hoo hoo hoo, hoo hoo hoo - left me awestruck.
