Bieber’s not just roasting chestnuts here, either; he co-wrote 10 of the 15 tracks, which includes a credit for his pussycat rapping alongside Busta Rhymes on “Drummer Boy.” He also contributes to “Home for Christmas,” a duet with Kimberly Perry from country’s the Band Perry.
The harmonies keep coming — Boyz II Men guest on the slow jam “Fa La La”; the Beeb’s voice, now sliding gracefully down the pubescent scale, blends well. Mariah Carey phones in backing tracks for a karaoke version of her perennial favorite, “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which only furthers Bieber’s holiday hookup theme.
Every Christmas album is bad, so dunno why this one would be much worse.
The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

My main anger isn't towards Bieber and his mediocre-a-best music, but at the idiots who constantly spew hate at Bieber over everywhere, spilling over into areas where people are talking about ANYTHING but Bieber. I get the desire to make them die a lonely death, stabbing them and letting the blood drain from their body, forcing them to watch Justin Bieber music videos as the coldness of blood loss sets in and their heart gives in.
Contrary to what one might think, this desire is not a pleasant one to feel.

I get you.
The annoying part is the forced nature of the Bieber hate (or whatever the current "must hate" thing happens to be).
Sort of a: "Hey I'll post something mean about Bieber, because all the cool kids are doing it and it will be funny..."
it was barely funny to begin with, and even less so after the first thousand times, but hey the internet attracts and facilitates this sort of behavior, so what are you gonna do...
What is happening here?! Looking at the folks that 'The Bieb' is working with, it's like he has spent his vast fortune on a time machine back to the mid nineties!
Boyz II Men? Mariah 'Chipmunk' Carey! Buster Rhymes?!
Of course it will sell by the bucket load and make the boy even more money. Because it's Christmas and people lose all sense of good taste at that time of year.......
Automatically Appended Next Post: He could, of course, donate all proceeds to the charity of his choice.....

No.
It was not.
In either case.

My Latin isn't top notch, but I sure do understand if you don't have the appetite to discuss this dude! (I think I'm right, will have to translate for sure!)

Latin maybe a dead language but at least we won't have to worry about Biebermania suffering the same fate, as it will live forever in our hearts.

I think the paucity of your musical taste has been well established on these boards, so... Actually, I'm willing to bet that you've never even heard it, you don't know who Phil Spector is, and that this is just another example of your wonderful personality defects in action.

You would lose those bets.
As for the "paucity" of my musical tastes? I like a wide range of musical genres. I just place a higher emphasis on composition than technical skill.

If by "Albatross is completely correct." you mean "Albatross got upset/emotionally distraught because not everyone has exactly the same musical tastes as he does", then yes.

Actually I don't even think we have to worry about Bieber fans keeping his fame alive because it's his equally annoying haters who won't stop talking about him, I honestly wouldn't be surprised if some of them
are secretly part of his marketing department trying to spread his word around.

Don't involve me in your trolling.
Happy Xmas (War is Over) by John Lennon is a damn fine song and he was correct to cite it as such.

Oh noes...foiled again by the infallible Cheesecat!
Well you're the bad Santa so of course you're going to spread the news of the release of crappy gifts to confused parents in hopes of ruining Christmas.
