LOS ANGELES, Jan 29, (Agencies): Justin Timberlake makes a triumphant return, showcasing his musical prowess on Saturday Night Live alongside host Dakota Johnson. The 42-year-old former *NSYNC member unveiled a sneak peek of his upcoming album with the debut of the soulful track, "Sanctified."
Keeping the performance stripped down and powerful, Timberlake passionately delivered the lyrics with a microphone in hand, accompanied by a live band. The stage later lit up with the appearance of featured artist Tobe Nwigwe, who brought a dynamic group of dancers for his verse.
"Sanctified" appears to be a heartfelt ode, possibly dedicated to Timberlake's wife, Jessica Biel. The lyrics suggest gratitude for someone who has been a guiding light through challenging times, with lines like, "You take all of my wrongs, move right along, take me and fix my mess / Get me up when I'm low, hand on my soul, like you see right inside. I come out a new man, no blood on my hands, sanctified."
Online praise for the performance flooded in from fans, building anticipation for Timberlake's sixth studio album, "Everything I Thought It Was," scheduled for release on March 15. The electrifying glimpse on SNL has left audiences eagerly awaiting the full musical experience that Timberlake's latest project promises to deliver.
