The video doesn't seem to be anything like "Take A Bow" ... maybe he changed his mind? Doesn't this song have a bdsm subtext ("whip me if i misbehave" etc)?
Someone should mention the effect this song has had on pop culture recently, as celebrities are constantly using or parodying the word "sexyback" while publicly speaking. Also the term itself "sexyback" should be elaborated on, both in terms of the writers and Justin's viewpoint and the public's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.157.217.8 ( talk) 04:22, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
Are parodies of songs no longer worth mentioning? Weird Al is going to be disappointed.
Perhaps the section on the video should state who the girl in the video is?
"Probably the most annoying song since 'Hollaback Girl' this tune is guaranteed to annoy the life out of any music lover, with its childish repetetive lyrics, a very sad attempt to be entertaining."
That's not Wiki material, so I deleted it. I myself do not like Timberlake either, but that shit is opinion, and POV. And honestly, I find "My Humps" to be even more annoying than "Hollaback."
Hated My Humps despised Hollaback Girl but loved Sexy Back. But that's neither here nor there.
Why does it say at the Bottom of this page that Beyonce is No.1 on the Hot 100, and Justin is No.2 this week? H's still No.1 and Beyonce's only No.11.
What does the fact that Timbaland etc. are gay have anything to do with the song? If it's relevant, additional context would be nice.
sexy is definitely back.
I removed the screenshot from the video because it was of no real illustrative value to the article. The image lacks sufficient context to inform the reader of anything of significance, does not appear to be momentous in any way, and is not specifically discussed in the test.

Once again this is disputed, but he IS a featured artist. The billboards had him credited as featured, and so does the album. Why is it that he's not featured here? Even "Now! That's What I Call Music" credits him as featured. Genevieve-Tamerlaine ( talk) 19:14, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
I don't think that Nelly Furtado ever covered "SexyBack" on her tour. Maybe it's meant that another artist (Jasmine) covered it in the break: http://youtube.com/watch?v=F5qN4-fwshE —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.155.221.40 ( talk) 19:01, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
There is no reason why there needs to be a separate article for Poison's cover of this song. The information needs to be merged into this article. - Xnux the Echidna 23:17, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
Rivethead did a metal cover if I recall correctly. Heres a youtube of the recording of it I think<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value=" http://www.youtube.com/v/hpSo-tIacYI&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src=" http://www.youtube.com/v/hpSo-tIacYI&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>. I don't know that they released it on an album but they circulated a bit of airplay with it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.84.73.217 ( talk) 18:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I'll be reviewing this article. Please just give me an hour or two to read through the article fully in order to give you a thorough review. Regards, Matthewedwards : Chat 19:13, 22 October 2009 (UTC)
Timbaland is a featured artist on the song, isn't he? In Timberlake's album, this track is listed as "SexyBack (feat. Timbaland)" and it comes up as featuring Timbaland most places on the web. Correct me if I'm wrong. TBrandley ( talk) 13:05, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
