"Until the End of Time" is a song by American singer Justin Timberlake from his second studio album FutureSex/LoveSounds (2006). It was later re-recorded with additional vocals by American recording artist Beyoncé and released as a single on November 13, 2007.

Composition

"Until the End of Time" utilizes Linn drums, which Ben Williams of New York compared to Prince's "The Beautiful Ones".[2]

Critical reception

Quentin B. Huff of PopMatters wrote that "Until the End of Time" is heavily reminiscent of Prince's work, adding "both songs (with "Sexy Ladies") are album highlights, but they don’t seem to strive for the same level of innovation as other songs in the set."[3] Sputnikmusic's Amanda Murray called the song "excessively bland."[4]
