 The title track was the best song December 29, 2008
Well, the entire cd was not that great, but the title track #17 "Here I Stand" is the most beautiful song I have heard Usher sing. When I heard it on the radio, I was nearly brought to tears. My sweetheart could have written every word. He is in the military and has to travel quite a bit so he has spoken those same words to me. To hear it in a song actually touched us both. So I am satified to have the song to listen to over and over. However, the whole cd was lacking. Confessions was a much better complete effort. This one seemed thrown together.
Not What I Expected December 17, 2008

This album didn't meet up to my expectations. When I heard "Love In This Club", I loved it and I just knew I had to have this CD. When I got the CD in the mail and listened to it, I was very disappointed. There were too many ballads and nothing catchy. I have listened to the CD twice and that's all I intend on listening to it. I've given it a chance but it's just not working for me. The only songs I liked on it were Love In This Club, Love In This Club pt. 2, and Trading Places. When hearing his lyrics, I understand that he's grown as an artist but I feel that he should show his progress and his growth in more catchier songs, but that's just my opinion. Hopefully the next one will be better...
 what a weak comeback!! December 15, 2008

This CD wasn't what I expected. Everyone has become aware that Usher once he takes a long break he comes back with an amazing album. However, this time around that wasn't the case. The album is not the usher I fell in love with. The songs are soo boring and dreadfull. I dowloaded the whole album into my ipod an the same week I remove all the songs. I just don't like the new Usher.
 I know you've heard a lot of bad...but trust me this is a solid album December 12, 2008

When Usher first released this album back in the summer, I had my money ready to purchase. However, so many people started "doggin" the album out. I was at Walmart in the cd section and overheard two women speaking about the album saying things like "he could of done better," "I don't really like it," and other stuff. Not mention, when I asked a few friends and coworkers what they thought, I got similar replies. Plus, his first few singles were lackluster at best. So I put off getting the album, but then "Trading Places" became a single and it sounded like something from Confessions. So I finally gave the cd a try and WOW!!! I wish I would have bought it sooner.
It is a great album. I do not know why everybody thinks the album is bad or ok. Usher will not be "Forever 21" so fans must expect his music to change as he gets older as with any music artist (think of Souja Boy in 30 years).
My Favs are:
Trading Places
Moving Mountains
What's Your Name
Love You Gently
Before I Met You
Lifetime
Here I Stand
The other tracks are decent, but I have found that I repeat the tracks above the most when listening in the car.
VERDICT: Buy the album, while this is not Confessions, you should not be expecting it to be.
satisfied December 1, 2008
This cd was also good, I had no problems with this one either. It is not that bad when you buy more than one product online, have it delivered and only one minor problem occurs and is resolved rather quickly and with no hassle at all. It felt good and safe and I must say for some one as sceptical as I am, I am glad for such a good experience. I did make two more purchases after these, hopefully I receive the same customer service and there is no internal or external damage to my merchandise.
