If Ne-Yo’s hit song “Because of You” off his soon to be released sophomore album sounds a bit like Michael Jackson to you, it’s because he intended it that way.
“I feel that “Because of You  If people didn’t notice, I’m thinking everybody did, but it’s very Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson is a huge part of why it is I do what I do. So that is kind of my ode to him, this song.
Ne-Yo is as famous for his songwriting as with his singing, writing such songs as Rihanna’s Top 10 hit, “Unfaithful”, Mario’s “Let Me Love You”, Mario Vazquez’s “Gallery”, Paula DeAnda’s “Walk Away (Remember Me)” and Beyoncé’s “Irreplaceable”.
I’m really digging this song, and the vid isn’t too bad either. He punches out quite a few signature MJ moves here and there, but why he would cheat on his smoking hot girl for some whack chick is beyond me.

OMG!! I so LOOOVE THIS SONG! I actually love all of neyo’s songs. He has a really great voice and everything he writes is classic. Sexy Love is another one of my favs. :p

I thought this song sounded a bit MJish, but then so does Sexy Love (kinda like Human Nature).
You’re right about that first girl in the video. She’s damn fiiine!

Neyo is one of the best artists you can find right now. I started loving him like 1 year ago or less, when So Sick came out, before he made music videos.
