five reasons it's cool usher is number one

1) "yeah" is usher's fourth greatest single. at first i thought it would become so annoying as to be like my favourite song of all time, but the subsequent lack of 'ahhh my ears are burning' has taken the edge off.

2) usher is clearly a bitter, miserable fuck and this news might bring a flash of a smile to his bewildered face.

3) on the uk 12 there's another lil jon-laced song which you can't find on the album - it turns out to be a melancholy flipside to "yeah", where usher recounts the day he met some prostitutes and judged them to be morally unsound. it has that same amazing synth preset.

4) my sister loves "yeah" and plays it all the live day long, which is by some distance better than her previous fave - motherfucking franz ferdinand with whatever that stupid song was!

5) the video has those cool space lights. if you watch lots of usher videos you might notice dude has never ever changed his hair. isn't that kind of weird!
