Justin Bieber Duets With Usher on “The Christmas Song”

Justin Bieber released another song off his Christmas album, "Under the Mistletoe," on Ryan Seacrest's radio show yesterday. It's "The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)" featuring Usher. Personally, and I know I'm about to start a firestorm of controversy with his fans, it sounds way too show-offy to me. Most songs don't need long trilly runs like he does at the very beginning of the song, especially not Christmas classics. I'm not saying you can't make it your own but this too much. I can't get past the first line because of all the ohowohwohwohwwhowhohwoohwohwohwohh he does. Just hit one or 2 notes and move on, we already know you can sing. You don't have to hit every note known to man every time you sing a line.

Check it out at RyanSeacrest.com. The single is on iTunes now. The album hits stores on November 1st.

By the way, Justin has been added to the list of performers for the "American Music Awards", which airs live November 20th on ABC. Other performers include Mary J. Blige, Kelly Clarkson, Katy Perry, Pitbull and Christina Aguilera, who will perform "Moves Like Jagger" with Maroon 5.
