[edit] Samples

There needs to be citations for the samples quoted in the first paragraph. And this song doesn't sample the beat from "Push It", it samples the synth melody. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.71.127.105 (talk) 06:29, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] who are the soccer players?

Who are they? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.74.53.94 (talk) 16:48:00, August 19, 2007 (UTC)

Players in the video aren't who are stated in the Wiki article

They're symbolic. The on going "game" between the two lovers.

[edit] WTF

WTF someone needs to fix up this page!!! TeePee-20.7 04:29, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

The page looks fine, but someone needs to fix his English. I can't say the way I are without cringing xD —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.82.60.1 (talk) 13:33, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

His comment was made in August, so the page may have been different. --¤ The-G-Unit-฿oss ¤ 15:43, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

Yes what is the point of "The Way I are". It sounds stupid and pointlessly wrong, fuck sake. "The way you are" I think is the real way to say it. Timbaland is very talented but loooks like a pig - oink. I think it's funny how the mcdonalds symbol appears at the start of the video next to a picture of Timbaland who looks very much like he's one cheeseburger shy of an early grave(213.202.171.117 (talk) 13:24, 5 February 2008 (UTC)).

It almost seems as if he went completely out of his way to make the title as grammatically incorrect as possible. After all, everyone knows how uncool it is to use proper grammar when you have an image to uphold. In all honesty, I don't care about his music. If you are going to release an album with such a stupid and erroneous title, then I don't care what you have to say. You've already told me that you're an idiot.

[edit] Ulterior Motives

Anyone else find it suspicious that one of the few rap singles to talk about accepting people no matter how they look (specifically how fat they are) was sponsored in it's production by McDonald's??
