Jamie Foxx and Chris Brown Changing For The Worse

I respect people wanting quality sounds for a brisk romp between the sheets. Lamentably Jamie Foxx and Chris Brown have not bottled the right formula with "You Changed Me". Nothing about it couldn't have been dismissed as a dashed off Post-It note notion. I'm not implying there's no merit to a grown man coming right out and thanking the woman in his life for making him a better version of himself. I don't see how any lovers, ebony skin toned or otherwise, could work up much sweat using raw confessional as a background. The billowing curtain audio behind both men plays up sex appeal. Jamie doesn't have to go to great extremes to convince anyone he's a player or that he can set a mood with the best of them. His star turn in "Ray" made questioning that a moot point. He goes on at length about how his woman changed from a player playing the field to a one man monogamous homeboy. If the orchestrations were a bit grander I might not be dismissing "You Changed Me" as scribbling on scratch pad sans eroticism needed to lube any and all transitions to the bedroom. We know how six pack ab amazing Jamie is. What does the on again off again bad boy Chris Brown have to contribute. Judging by lyrical content I'd venture to guess not a huge deal. He's apparently "fiendin' for your kisses". Golly...not close to Halloween and we're already dragging out ghoul references. He doesn't care where he can corner her. He's lickin' on her body. Here comes that long awaited bucket of cold water all over the sexcapades. Anyone out there want the current version of Chris Brown licking on any part of your body? That's what I thought. Moving on, one nugget in particular has me scratching my head. I think it's supposed to flatter the girl but the message mixes left and right. What to make of "Girl I love it when you get on your knees. You make me disappear like magic." The hint I get is that the sexual rituals are so satisfying Chris disappears into the procedure. Caveat to Chris though...some might think the woman isn't lusty enough to sate the appetite, thus he disappears from the bedroom ruing the wasted paramour connection he was trying to achieve. Achievement...it's a good word to say you were part of during the course of life. The only thing "You Changed Me" achieves is the nagging desire that this player stop using superlatives to describe how noble he is for not being a wild child schmuck who refuses to be tamed. Change direction fellas. You want to lure couples into the bedroom, not leave them bored at the prospect of doing the nasty.
