Usher discography

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 76.126.117.3 (talk) at 04:24, 9 March 2009 (The track called "Here I Stand" has charted significantly on the R&B/Hip-Hop songs chart, so I put it on this page, hoping I did it correctly.). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.
