re: lightnin' hopkins - i know who he is, i meant "like" vs. "light" as the word immediately preceding. 'like' makes sense, 'light' is erykah's lyric sheet.

I like me some Erykah Badu but I gotta confess her vocals on her live version of James Taylor's "You've Got a Friend" last night in Dallas at the NBA Allstar weekend were kinda weak. Plus my son and his cousins were giggling about her hat.

The acoustic bass is great and I think her vocals get better as the song goes along

i have "jump up in the air and stay there" written on a piece of paper and taped to inside of my bedroom door -- i find it to be a very inspiring sentiment
the video confirms my belief that brain-fried, chronic mispronouncing wayne is totally perfect for the song
― nagl wayne (J0rdan S.), Sunday, 14 February 2010 21:30 (fourteen years ago) link
"window seat" >>>>> "jump up in the air and stay there" - i really hope the album resembles the former more than the latter
― vag gangsta (k3vin k.), Sunday, 14 February 2010 21:56 (fourteen years ago) link
would it be so hard for lil wayne just to write out a coherent rap instead making up some bs on the spot

This. (Though, from what Matos told me, it's much more in the vein of the former, and the latter is being left off because it would be way out of place and wouldn't even work as a coda in the way "Honey" did.)

Gotta admit, "Jump" has definitely gotten quite a few more plays on my iTunes.

You're right. I'll just admit, then, that "Jump" > "Window" ... for me.

I really really do love Mama's Gun-type stuff, tho. It's just stuff I have to be way more in the mood for.

It's less wild-ass than the first one; it ranges pretty widely while staying pretty resolutely R&B. Kind of Mama's Gun refracted through Pt. 1. Lots of piano and bass, a good amount of studio treatment but super approachable--the old fans who lost her w/Pt. 1 will like this a lot, I think. Last few songs get really torchy. A lyric that stood out: "I'm on my front porch rockin'/Like Lightnin' Hopkins." I think the above-linked preview says it well.

jump up in the air has gotten progressively more jawdropping with repeated plays. it's pretty raw psych funk. wayne's wasted verse works but doesn't really add anything of value

Love the fact that the metallic reverb from "Hydraulic Pump" only surfaces a couple times during the track.

On twitter at the moment, Erykah is on a frantic quest to get in touch with Paul McCartney via Stella via Lenny Kravitz so she can clear a Paul McCartney sample for the album within the next 24 hours. Or else one song won't make the album. :S

Hope she replaces it with "Jump Up in the Air" if that's the case.

so what is jump up in the air actually called
"jump up in the air and stay there""jump up in the air (and stay there)""jump up in the air (stay there)"
