yeah i mean it's a thin line cf his live shows but i hope he stays more r&b

"Arch & Point" worked as genre exercise AND song but yeah I wouldn't want a whole album of clones.
a whole album of "Use Me"s however

His live show is guitar heavy to an album obnoxious degree (it's cool at first but after a while it begins to feel like a Living Colour concert or something). He's got a good thing going on urban radio, though, so I'm sure he's not going to sacrifice that by going full Chili Peppers on his next major release
― Evan R, Monday, 3 February 2014 21:23 (ten years ago) link
I like the guitar heavy stuff, so I don;'t really mind.

This is def better than that adult swim track.

Less annoying than the original. But then again, most things are.
― Inside Lewellyn Sinclair (cryptosicko), Friday, 21 March 2014 17:45 (ten years ago) link
The original used to bug me a lot but ultimately became one of my favorite Elton songs. Miggy's version is FIRE.
― Johnny Fever, Friday, 21 March 2014 20:42 (ten years ago) link
that synth bass is killer. hope his next album has some stuff with that sound.

Pointless, but, man, I get so much pleasure from hearing him sing, partly because he does.
― Bryan Fairy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Friday, 21 March 2014 20:53 (ten years ago) link
can't listen right now but I'll have you know I KILLED THE FUCK OUT OF "Benny" at karaoke a month or two back, Kate78 can back me up on this

did you then proceed to leap over the bar and kick some poor woman in the head?

love it, love it.
based on this and his A+ Zombies cover on 'don't look back', I'd love to hear him do a covers album at some point in the future
and Alfred otm

Not even Wale could ruin this. But Wale really should stop anyway.
― Herbie Handcock (Murgatroid), Saturday, 22 March 2014 06:12 (ten years ago) link
Wale is so neutral and faceless that he's usually only a problem if left to his own devices. He ain't fuckin up shit. But Walereally should stop anyway.
― The Reverend, Saturday, 22 March 2014 06:52 (ten years ago) link
Guest raps on otherwise fairly faithful covers of songs that didn't have a rap to begin with are just generally a bad look, Wale or not

When I saw Miguel live he had a stereotypical bar-band guitarist in his band
― curmudgeon, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 14:30 (ten years ago) link
there's a lot of amused posts about his guitarist itt, who looks goofy but adds some great stuff to "Adorn" and some other songs imo
― posi riot (some dude), Wednesday, 16 April 2014 14:34 (ten years ago) link
I'm just reminded of how I much better the song "Game of Love" would be if it didn't have Santana on it.
― MarkoP, Wednesday, 16 April 2014 14:37 (ten years ago) link
love his guitarist

i'm into the santana joint but why is santana's guitar tone so gross and plasticky.

I think you mean... smooth
Also yeah Miguel's guitarist is great!

one of my local stations played "Simple Things" during their new music hour recently. would be funny if the single ended up being something that's already been out for months and months again like with "Adorn."

"simple things" is dope but it would be cool if he came back with something like "adorn" that just screams HIT
