Thanks. A few of the later ones there I'm not really familiar with though of course the U Got It Bad, U Don't Have To Call, Confessions and Trading Places videos are etched into my brain.
Seems a shame that he only really showed skin in a video once during the Confessions era tbh.
Everything's on YouTube and in 4K so you're in luck. You're right that he didn't show a lot of skin in his videos during Confessions. I think he wanted his videos to be more cinematic, which I think left little room for gratituous shirtless shots, lol. Yeah takes place in a club, Burn plays out like a drama, Confessions was the one time but we had to wait until the end, My Boo was filmed like a rom com and Caught Up was like a an MJ music video.
I don't know if you are familiar with Rhythm City: Caught Up but it's a mini movie with Caught Up and a few songs that were on the deluxe edition of Confessions and an EP he released. He goes shirtless during Seduction so I guess that counts as another moment. Usher went shirtless so many times during Confessions outside of videos, tbh. Performances, the tour, photo shoots, magazine covers, the In The Mix movie etc. I think this recent era (Vegas 2022, Coming Home era and PPF tour) was him making up for lost time because the latter half of the 2010s were some of his unsexiest years.
Wish he was the one tied up in Lemme See. But Usher doesn't play that lol. He comes across as someone who likes being in control. Trading Places was a one time thing lmaooo
Right he’d look too good being tied up but its still a really sexy video regardless and his body is amazing
Kind of underrated, but Risk it All is an amazing video
I think you’re right bc it would be quite similar and topically it fits better with Trading Places even though both talk about dynamics in the bedroom.
A music video for Dot Com from that EP would’ve been interesting
The best is definitely U Don't Have To Call. His hand reaching into the waistband of his boxers and the towel clinging to dear life on his hip.
A whole video of Usher in his UNDERWEAR. We have been fed so much! How many male artists his age would even do that?!
Here's a few random moments of Usher having fun and being his cute self

Pretty much did it for fun too because that song did not require all of that
but we’re grateful
The cake moments were his 26th birthday on tour in 2004. 20 years ago. Wish he still kept his pits hairy like that, lol.
Usher never kept that much hair there tbh. Probably because of how he sweats on stage lol. So even now that he’s older, he trims them!
