As usual, Ciara depends on another collaboration to get another hit. As usual, having Justin Timberlake as the featured artist seems to be a sure winner. I almost would bet Barbra Streisand or Donna Summer could streak back to the top of the charts if either of them can book herself a duet with the former N'Sync icon. And heck, it does have a great beat, its suggestive without being profane, and is a fun song to dance if I were still young enough. With that said. . .I am glad I grabbed it a week ago for 99 cents. I would not touch this song--it simply isn't good enough or must have--for the inflated price of $1.29. That also pretty much explains why CD's always debut at #1 but never stay long. Why pay $13.99 when you should have went week 1 and paid $9.99? I'm certain the real issue is with the record company and the big bad iTunes, not necessarily with Amazon.

When it has come down to collaborations recently, there really have been only a few that actually shined on radio like Lucky for Jason Mraz & Colbie Calliat. But for Justin timberlake, his recent collaborations have been a bit weak heart and soul than what was honestly expected from the man who wanted to bring sexy back. Well that is strained from his recent duets with Rihanna on Rehab and Madonna on 4 Minutes. For Ciara, that strain is also felt too on their collaboration, Love Sex & Magic, the third single from Ciara's upcoming Fantasy Ride album. I really didn't feel the chemistry bewtween the 2 singers heart and soul here. Ciara has had a few weak songs, but this one just didn't feel like it was sensual enough to say that you could believe in Love, Sex & Magic. Hopefully, the next time they collaborate on a song, it could feel a lot more driven.

Song: D 1/2+

-Love, Sex, Magic (Feat. Justin Timberlake)- Track two on the album and the second single. Not the worst song but definitely not really feeling the beat. Sure, you guys have heard this one before. It's her current single. You either like it or you don't.

It's definitely not the worst song on the airwaves by far, but it leaves quite a bit to be desired. The beat feels a bit lazy.

D+

end note: And WHY are popular singles so expensive now? Amazon used to be great about providing 89 cent songs, which trumped iTunes' 99 price but now, they are just going overboard!

High Price should be the next single. Or at least on radios. It's hot.

"Love Sex Magic" lacks all the characteristics of the title. It's a soulless arranged musical marriage between former hip-hop diva Ciara and former boy band member Justin Timberlake. It's got a rhythm,but not much else. It bears an amazing resemblance to Timberlake's "Rock Your Body" as far as the melody is concerned. At least Ciara,as she plagiarizes,gives credit to the author by making out with him in the video. "Love Sex Magic" lacks the passion,a perfect buzzkill,and would work in "abstinence only" education. It's listless lust, mundane magic, and yes,pretty loveless. "Love Sex Magic" has only two favorable factors--it's got a great beat, and Justin and Ciara are one sexy couple. Really, they look hot together. Too bad they have this awful song.

I am so disappointed of this song and new Ciara album. It's like a bad copy of Justin's FutureSex/Love Sound. Completely boring and repetitive. Justin needs change her music direction 'cause all the collaborations he has done are identical (Rehab Rihanna, all the Madonna's "Hard Candy" and now Ciara). Just sucks!!!!

the video's okay only ciara acts like eartha kitt on acid other than that this sounds like one of jt's leftovers.

You- yes you mr Record company- such a blatent demonstration of greed does not go unnoticed, particularly in this economic climate. It is this arrogance that brought about the calamitous wall street debauchery that has hurt so many people. I will not buy this song- perhaps a boycott of this record company would be a good idea.

Ciara is okay but nahhhhhh
check it out i think she try to hard
But
Check OUT that new artist TIEC TOCC ..and his new single "Frozen"

I think he a breath of fresh air and that song really touches me
help me get through a rough time..
