https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXskfsgBihE Another entry in the So Obvious It Can't Even Be Called Provocative category of lustful pop music, "Scream" only takes a break from all the panting and breathless harmonizing so that producer Timbaland can completely wreck the mood with his awkward, atonal warbling that has him asking (no joke) "Can I have some of your cookies?" and "Can I have some of your pie?" But when the producer isn't so busy embarrassing himself, the duo of Keri Hilson and Nicole Scherzinger (who you'll recognize as a member of the burlesque act the Pussycat Dolls) are getting their vocal seductions on. It's a pretty erotic jam to get routine radio play, but again, since it's kept from achieving its "peak" thanks to the creepy cajolery of Timbaland, maybe that helped Parental Advisory Groups from latching onto the song. Maintaining interest after those few gross seconds may be difficult, but Hilson and Scherzinger do everything in their power to reel you back in with their alluring wails.
