wow....although I would agree that timberlake is talented (although I despise him) I think he has a ways to go before he can be compared to james taylor.
 
also who cares how simplistic Taylor's music was? For the record, i know i'm just a dumb hillbilly to you dickens, but I have taken several music classes, including music theory classes. What matters are how well songs adapt over time. Justin's early music sure is considered great stuff today. I mean everyone loves the NSync stuff.:unsure:

you brought up songwriting ability. Not to mention timberlake didnt write any of the nsync stuff. Can Taylor produce like Timberlake can? No.
 
Until James Taylor gets with Cameron Diaz and Britney Spears and exposes Janet Jackson in public, the winner is Timberlake.
 
dickens, honestly do you think any of Timberlake's music will hold the test of time like Taylor's has?

I don't know. I imagine some of his better work will, just like Taylor's did. Timberlake will continue reinventing himself as time passes and he as a musician will stand the test of time.
 
right now I'm with crazyguy. I don't really see any of Timberlake's music lasting longer than a decade, but I guess time will tell.

As for Steamroller, I do really enjoy it, in fact I've yet to find the James Taylor song that I don't like. But "something in the way she moves" (the slower version), "Carolina in my mind", anything from Mudslime Slim and the Blue Horizon album, "Sweet Baby James" and "Song for you so far away" are songs that immediately come to mind for me. "Song for... away" is possibly my second favorite song of all time. Behind only "Melissa" by the Allman Brothers and maybe, just maybe "Name" by the Goo Goo Dolls.

I'm going to agree with Dickens. I don't exactly love JT, but he is very talented.
