And on BET I heard it described as the greatest song (and video) EVER! BETTER THAN THRILLER!
It's inexplicable to me that people like this song and even more inexplicable that people like R Kelly!

Posted: 7/5/05 at 1:10pmI like it because it's so funny! It's too bad that the video has to end with Kelly being discovered in the closet, rather than the beatdown he inevitably got from that woman's boyfriend/husband.

I saw parts of it on "Best Week Ever" and could not stop laughing.
And did you see that there are FIVE parts to it??

With FIVE more parts to come!
I love the fact that the song has NO chorus, NO verse, almost no tune-- just a shambling, repetititve vocal: "I'm trapped in the Closet! I hope he doesn't open the Closet! I've got to get out of this closet!" and on and on.....

Posted: 7/5/05 at 1:18pmI think my favorite part was his completely unemotional reading of "Oh my goodness I'm about to climax!"

Oh R. Kelly. He's just so amazingly talented, what can we expect? Let's all remember his other classic works such as "You Remind me of Something"

The artistry is stunning.

I love that when the cell phone rings and he's alerted to the fact that his wife is having an affair, the minister says "there's a mystery here and I'm gonna solve it!" and when she tries to explain he says "Say no more, bitch!"
Robert certainly captures the way people really talk! I hope he writes a broadway show!

"You remind me of my jeep; I wanna ride it
Something like my sounds, I wanna pump it
Girl you look just like my cars; I wanna wax it
And something like my bank account, I wanna spend it"
Every girl's dream.

Posted: 7/5/05 at 2:29pmI was rolling on the floor cracking up over the clips I saw on Best Week Ever...but reading the entire lyrics is even funnier!! OMG Do people really think this is deep and introspective?? Wow...If I didn't know any better I would have thought this was a joke!
