Listen to Justin Timberlake on iHeartRadio
(Yahoo!) - If there was any concern that Justin Timberlake may have lost his musical mojo over the years he's been away acting, the numbers speak for themselves.
After releasing his first single in six years, "Suit & Tie" featuring JAY Z, last Monday at midnight, the song has gone straight to the top spot on iTunes charts in 31 different countries, including United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Sweden, France, and Brazil. In another 54, it is sitting pretty in The Top 10. That’s especially impressive considering that JT only told the world he was "ready" to release new music just three days before he dropped the single!

"Suit & Tie," which initially earned mixed reviews from fans, also went on to break U.S. radio airplay records: biggest song debut, airplay increase, and the biggest audience increase for a solo artist ever.
And if all that wasn’t enough, the track also gave the Social Network actor his best first week sales of his career, beating out "SexyBack" with 310,078 digital downloads.
