I never actually noticed the bridge to "Countdown" before the video; the more I play this song, the more I dig it
still feel "End of Time" is the best song on the album, tho
― the tax avocado (DJP), Friday, 7 October 2011 21:20 (fourteen years ago)
agreed. Still amazed that Diplo was involved
― Number None, Friday, 7 October 2011 21:23 (fourteen years ago)
Adore this video and all of its beautiful gif children.

she just looks so fresh and clean here, like how you would want your girlfriend to look in the morning of a beautiful spring day.

might have to poll these?

was contemplating a lyrics poll for the song

2nd boof clearly the standout

these are the very first times i've listened to "countdown" without "love on top" btw

yea everybody knows jay z is the luckiest guy in town
have to say tho, love on top annoys me more every time
― surm, Sunday, 9 October 2011 18:59 (fourteen years ago)
it sounds like a bill withers song used in an eHarmony commercial, but boring
― surm, Sunday, 9 October 2011 19:12 (fourteen years ago)
i didn't really dig the song until the amazing vocals on that vma performance

It sounds like a cheesy 80s Stevie Wonder song (in a good way).
― turfin' bird (The Reverend), Monday, 10 October 2011 03:37 (fourteen years ago)
totally. and "it sounds like Lovely Day in a bad way" is basically an oxymoron.
― some dude, Monday, 10 October 2011 03:41 (fourteen years ago)
i love "love on top"
― horseshoe, Monday, 10 October 2011 03:42 (fourteen years ago)
it is not as good as lovely day
btw today at the playground something funny happened
a little boy was singing "who run the world (girls)" over and over and this girl goes "SHUTUP WIT THAT STUPID SONG"
pretty much sums it up
― surm, Monday, 10 October 2011 03:45 (fourteen years ago)
'love on top' is great but it's easy to od on it
never been a fan of 'countdown' except..maybe after the vid
― 2001: a based godyssey (dayo), Monday, 10 October 2011 03:46 (fourteen years ago)
apparently she's also already shot a video for "love on top"

what is?
― turfin' bird (The Reverend), Monday, 10 October 2011 07:33 (fourteen years ago)
it's not an uncommon response to many bey songs but 'love on top' especially brings to mind a big muppet show finale
all kinds of frantic slapstick mayhem going off in the background for the keychange
― r|t|c, Monday, 10 October 2011 10:11 (fourteen years ago)
LOL that hat btw
she is a genius
― r|t|c, Monday, 10 October 2011 10:13 (fourteen years ago)
do you think
- they put that hat on last minute- they planned the entire video around that hat- the song was originally written staring at that hat
― r|t|c, Monday, 10 October 2011 10:16 (fourteen years ago)
OMG yes at muppets comparison.
― Tim F, Monday, 10 October 2011 10:19 (fourteen years ago)
Whenever I hear about Muppets in pop I always think of the Flaming Lips or Animal Collective or Grandaddy or some other Kermit and Robin-voiced fake Neil Young loser. Love On Top is fantastic but do not want that image in there.
― Matt DC, Monday, 10 October 2011 10:44 (fourteen years ago)
It totally just reminds me of Stevie Wonder as well fwiw. Just really guileless in its positivity without being annoying about it.
― Matt DC, Monday, 10 October 2011 10:45 (fourteen years ago)
lol right yeah the inherent guile of the muppets. the issue of their indie connotations is one for you and your therapist bro.
― r|t|c, Monday, 10 October 2011 11:05 (fourteen years ago)
It's less about inherent guilelessness and more being able to channel that guilelessness without looking like a twat. Obviously B pulls that off.
Muppets do in a different way. Wayne Coyne or whoever, less so.
― Matt DC, Monday, 10 October 2011 11:26 (fourteen years ago)
the way she sings the love on top chorus, it feels like it is being hammered into my brain like a math textbook

was listening to this album today and thinking about how perfect it would be as an 8-track song cycle about love and commitment and devotion with "Girls (Ruin The Album)" and the other shitty off-topic songs cut out
― some dude, Monday, 10 October 2011 21:29 (fourteen years ago)
i like this album more than you do, i think, but otm, especially about girls (it's nice that you're rich, beyonce, but girls manifestly don't run the world)
― horseshoe, Monday, 10 October 2011 21:30 (fourteen years ago)
well you can get pretty close if you, like me, just choose not to listen to the final two songs on the album
― yung huma (J0rdan S.), Monday, 10 October 2011 21:32 (fourteen years ago)
haha the song not being a truthful depiction of the state of the world is the least of its problems (xpost)
"i was here" is part of the off-topic quartet (w/ "party" and "best thing") but i feel like people have been unfair to it for the dianne warren stigma, it has one of the best drum sounds on the whole album
― some dude, Monday, 10 October 2011 21:33 (fourteen years ago)
i mean, it sounds bad, too, but it elicits a really childish irritation in me
