I mean, "I Love The Way You Lie" would have made sense in context at least

Just wanted to add my voice to the chorus of approval for Frank Ocean's 'Nostalgia/Ultra'.

yeah me too; i tried skimming this thread to see if there was any discussion of it, it's sweet

Yeah, he should have his own thread, there's so much to talk about with that album.

it's gonna end up being on my top 10

Seconded. In fact top 5.

J0rdan - Is that new Frank Ocean track any good do you know? When I clicked on the link at Pitchfork my Norton informed me something was attacking my computer! Tegan and Sara presumably.
― pandemic, Thursday, 28 July 2011 19:39 (fourteen years ago)
yes, it's really good

btw you were right. It is really good, and different to anything on N/U

the beat reminds me of "luv songs"

well, what is?
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 28 July 2011 22:03 (fourteen years ago)
yeah i just dont think this song is that great in general. good performance though -- and nice review, although i think this hitting the charts is unlikely
― Gatsby was a success, in the end, wasn't he? (D-40), Friday, 29 July 2011 00:29 (fourteen years ago)
yeah, me 2. they should push it as a single altho i'm not sure if radio would buy his falsetto
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 July 2011 01:58 (fourteen years ago)
if "marvin's room" can be a legit hit w/ no promotion, this should be too imo
hey let's go 600 posts on what "legit hit" means in the year 2011 now

i don't think anyone was planning on that
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 July 2011 02:04 (fourteen years ago)
enjoy this but slightly kid cudi naw? lol
― you've got male (jim in glasgow), Friday, 29 July 2011 02:13 (fourteen years ago)
thought it was kinda drake-ish to start until he starts singing earnestly
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 July 2011 02:13 (fourteen years ago)
well he can actually sing so that means it's not like either of those. decen falsetto. and not false curtis pharell style/though not necessarily a better attempt.
i am really enjoying this.
― you've got male (jim in glasgow), Friday, 29 July 2011 02:14 (fourteen years ago)
yeah to me this is just not a great song qua song -- i cant remember how it goes & ive listened like 5 times now -- but good performance all around
― Gatsby was a success, in the end, wasn't he? (D-40), Friday, 29 July 2011 02:27 (fourteen years ago)

thanking u pandemic
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 July 2011 16:44 (fourteen years ago)
lol, so maybe the reason that frank ocean pulled "thinking about you" from his blog is bcuz it was for another artist

― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 July 2011 17:16 (fourteen years ago)
really good song, whoever it's for
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 July 2011 17:18 (fourteen years ago)
Gotta disagree w you there. What was charming abt it was the performance!
― Gatsby was a success, in the end, wasn't he? (D-40), Friday, 29 July 2011 17:35 (fourteen years ago)
i agree with that -- i like the frank ocean version better
but i think you could argue that it works better w/ someone who is a classically better singer
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 July 2011 17:50 (fourteen years ago)
Yah I mean i'm not writing it off as potentially working w a diff singer
It is p lol that we took the normal characteristics of a reference track for being some kind og interesting artistic statement tho lol
― Gatsby was a success, in the end, wasn't he? (D-40), Friday, 29 July 2011 17:54 (fourteen years ago)
lol i know
― J0rdan S., Friday, 29 July 2011 17:56 (fourteen years ago)
such is the game
also considering the conclusion of my review was "frank ocean is not just a songwriter for others, as chris brown might've zinged"
