so appalled really is an amazingly terrible song. rivals jay's monster verse for lowpoint of this

wtf, i like that one...

just in terms of songs that plain don't work, nothing really beats out "Dark Fantasy", although the verses on "All of the Lights" rival it.
Still think both the hate and the love are overblown; this is basically a decent Kanye album with a couple of great songs on it released in a year where most high profile music was out-and-out garbage.

remember when this was the album with no singles? anyway, i think "all of the lights" would've had potential of a classic stadium song if the verses weren't so bad/self-centered
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 31 March 2011 20:49 (fifteen years ago)
somethin' wrongi hold my headclassic? nomy verses bad

they closed down the two borders i used to go to :(
― markers, Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:41 (fifteen years ago)
ha yeah that lyric feels like a period piece
― dayo technology (some dude), Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:45 (fifteen years ago)
"All of the Lights" becoming a pretty big radio hit is a little surprising (although unless it makes a big Hot 100 surge this'll still be the first Kanye album with no top 10 hit), but a few months ago i started hearing "Live Your Life" on the radio ALL THE TIME again as a recurrent and in that context it makes sense that a retarded cousin of that song like "Lights" would do well.
― dayo technology (some dude), Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:47 (fifteen years ago)
"all of the lights" >>>>>>> "live your life"
― hey ilxor, thanks for contributing, glad you stopped by (ilxor), Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:48 (fifteen years ago)
lol ship i had the same experience w/ "live your life" -- i was very puzzled
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:50 (fifteen years ago)
i know isn't it weird!
― dayo technology (some dude), Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:50 (fifteen years ago)
on the other hand it was better than having to hear the singles off the new t.i. album
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:51 (fifteen years ago)
I still feel like "Lost In The World" could be a hit. possibly needs a remix or something; but the hook is so catchy and singalong-ready! and the beat is mad-propulsive, like some shit from a car commercial or before a sporting event starts. GIVE ME ONE GOOD REASON this hasn't happened yet?!
― bernard snowy, Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:53 (fifteen years ago)
(bon iver backlash)
yeah i think i said this somewhere way upthread but "lost in the world" is the only song i can remotely imagine doing well as a single besides the 4 tracks announced as singles before the album's release
― dayo technology (some dude), Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:56 (fifteen years ago)
i thought "paranoid" would be a big hit too tho
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 31 March 2011 21:58 (fifteen years ago)
maybe Lil B will remake it and have a hit
"Based In BasedWorld"
― bernard snowy, Thursday, 31 March 2011 22:00 (fifteen years ago)
I still feel like "Lost In The World" could be a hit. possibly needs a remix or something
it's basically ALREADY a remix of a Bon Iver track, tho, isnt it?
― hey ilxor, thanks for contributing, glad you stopped by (ilxor), Thursday, 31 March 2011 22:06 (fifteen years ago)
Well, considering the original is just one line repeated ad infinitum, it's a bit more than a remix.
― Number None, Thursday, 31 March 2011 22:09 (fifteen years ago)
so does anybody still listen to the best album of 2010

This album is still pretty good, even though it's not nearly the masterpiece most critics claimed it to be.
All the singles kill, though.
― fat fat fat fat Usher (DJP), Monday, 18 April 2011 14:14 (fifteen years ago)
compared to the singles from his other albums?
― steendriving is very bad - but I got a fake ID though! (some dude), Monday, 18 April 2011 14:16 (fifteen years ago)
I'm pretty sure he's never going to to "Gold Digger" or "Love Lockdown" in my ears and I'm okay with that. I like these singles more than I like the Graduation and College Dropout singles ("Jesus Walks" and "Flashing Lights" excepted; I like those as much).
― fat fat fat fat Usher (DJP), Monday, 18 April 2011 14:19 (fifteen years ago)
(his best album is still 808s)

Sort of a dorky reggae-ish cover of all of the lights but I like it:
