N.E.R.D. "Nothing"

Everybody put your hands up, raise the roof, don't worry about the mornin' worry about tonight. Muted disco horns and a dance beat, key and a visit from royal king, T.I., makes us want to "Party People."  This beat andwhateveryoucaallitbass "Hypnotize U." I don't like the "Touch a Girl" refrain but the duun-nuh-nuh synth added toward the middle is nice. "Help Me," has this punky horn/drum attack after this slow groove, and the second attack features this great synth; the lyrics are better in this song then the previous which had other things on their mind over having someone think,but were great songs for other activities. I sense a "Victory" withe the piano and the soaring chorus around 2:50.  I think instead of one "Perfect Defect," I may have several.But this song has none with this dance beat, nice horn, and something that was borrowed "Into the Night." It is about a girl he loves secretly that doesn't care that he exists, she feels she is missing something, but he is blown away, and says she is perfect. The song,"I've Seen The Light/Inside of Clouds" has me saying I agree, with it's hand clap beat, sporadic spacey key, and man, they have nice sax. Sorry, I just had to do that. Maybe not, and most of you probably say that was lame as---- or uncalled for. Sorry.The second part has this nice guitar more horns, keys, and group choir. "God Bless Us All," with this beat that may have your finger snappin', and it's choir in the background inspiring you to try. have you ever thought about how "Life as A Fish" would be? It may be cool, but with all this polluted water it's not so great to live "Under The Sea" anymore, which has this nice maracan inclusion, and synth. "Leave it on the dry land (dry land)/Where the living scream die man (die man)/Awwwwww/He made this world, took it and gave it back again/And we learned, no-thing/(Nothing, we, we learned nothing right?)." Okay enough thinking, time to get partying with "Nothing on You," and dancing bass giving the drums a chance to dance with his crush as well as anybody else; man this is "Hot N' Fun." Another dance song, with this "hypnotizing bassline, please feel free to lose your mind." It features some nice piano, and great dual vocals with Nelly Furtado, and this funky guitar, can I mention the bass, again? Anyway, If I could say "Nothing" about this record, and only recommend the seven best songs they would be: Party People, Help Me, Perfect Defect, I've Seen the light/Inside Of Clouds, God Bless Us All, Life as a Fish, and Hot N' Fun.
