On Justin Timberland and Jay-Z, "Suit & Tie"

My biggest concerns:

* Amateurish placement of the touchscreen tablet thing
* The whole routine with the (what were those?) hankies/hobo-ropes should have been a cane or perhaps done with their untied bowties themselves, to stay on topic
* Why the Flashdance girl at the end?

That being said, I agree the song is growing on me. Feel like Jay's half-speed part should have just been at the end, making the downtempo parts a bookend to the central song, and continuing JT's tradition of great, off-kilter codas on his tracks.
