April Special Series - What Goes Around...Comes Around

Every year in April, I celebrate my birthday with "Thriller" as presented on YouTube.  This year is not a milestone age, but I do feel compelled to do something different to honor my birthday.  And so every Monday in this month of April, leading to the 29th, I will present a Set List special series.

In this launch edition of April Special Series, I am featuring Justin Timberlake and his notable song, "What Goes Around Comes Around."

"What Goes Around...Comes Around" is the third single from Justin Timberlake's second studio album, Future Sex/Love Sounds, released in 2006.

"What Goes Around...Comes Around" is defined by Justin Timberlake as betrayal and forgiveness.

Critical acclaim ("What Goes Around...Comes Around) -
- Third consecutive No. 1 hit on Billboard Hot 100
- Top 10 in the UK, Canada, New Zealand, Germany, and Australia
- Certified 2X Platinum in Australia
- Certified Gold in the U.S.
- Certified Gold in Australia
- Won Best Male Pop Vocal Performance at 50th Grammy Awards
- Nominated for Record of the Year (50th Grammy Awards)

Critical acclaim (Music Video) -
- Won Best Direction at the 2007 MTV Music Video Awards
- Nominated for Video of the Year

(A detailed history of "What Goes Around...Comes Around" and further critical acclaim can be found on Wikipedia.)

As you can tell, "What Goes Around...Comes Around" does not relate to the month of April and celebration leading to the 29th.  Although in a slight sense, the song title alone could be - what goes around through April to come around at the end.

On Set List, I just like the song.
