"Cry Me a River" (2002) |
"Like I Love You" is the first single from Justin Timberlake's solo debut album Justified, performed with hip-hop duo Clipse. Released in 2002, the Neptunes-produced single peaked at #11 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. It also peaked at #2 in the UK and stayed on the charts for sixteen weeks. One of the backing dancers is Kevin Federline, the (eventual) ex-husband of Timberlake's ex-girlfriend, Britney Spears. The songs drums were an ode to the funk era according to Pharrell, who came up with the music loop. The guitar part is reminiscent of George Michael's Faith. It was recently covered by The Dillinger Escape Plan for their iTunes Music Store-only EP, Plagiarism.
