| The song was inspired by his blood disease, but I don't believe that's all there is to it. | |

| You're a bunch of fools. It's "and the ring with kill us all" LOTR motherfuckers | |

| OK I was a little high then :). Still I love this shit. | |
| Eminem – No Love (feat. Lil Wayne) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| It's never freestyle. He doesn't write, but he has the songs composed in his head beforehand, he stops, he goes back. He doesn't think of his shit on the fly, watch The Carter and he explains this. | |

I agree that he rarely talks about anything "important", but I don't think that disqualifies him from being great. What did Eminem really have to say on his first 2 LPs? Sure there were a few themes, and he's always known how to tell a story, but it was mostly comedy. Yet it was still great. In short I disagree overall. Of course, this is Em's song in every sense. And it is hard to claim wayne is better after this one. |

| The Clash – Bankrobber Lyrics | 15 years ago |

Incredible lyrics, with a very real messsage delivered in a playful but "straight talk" manner. I think there's a point in everybody's life, after they realize that things are more or less fucked up, where you either say "OK, things are fucked up so I'm going live this way" or "Things are fucked up, but I'm going to live this way anyway." "I don't believe in lying back saying how bad your luck is." |

| Green Day – Homecoming Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| This is the most "real" song I have ever heard in the entire realm of rock and roll. Anyone who listens and can understand is my brother or sister. | |
| Big Tymers – Still Fly Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| Ironically, this is a great song to listen to when your broke. It speaks to the ultimately unsubstantial nature of money. | |

"...and I'm fucking lazy" ahahahahahahaha |

| Green Day – Green Day Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| T0his song personifies what a lot of us already know: if you don't smoke, you will never be able to fully appreciate Green Day. | |
| Danger Doom – Basket Case Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| The final "skit within the song" at the end of this ones is one of the funniest things I have ever heard in all of music. He talks like a person with very poor English (read:slow), and as he attempts to explain why he wants an "immediate dismissal," more and more people just start laughing at him. The laughter really should be in the lyrics above. Hilarious. | |
| 50 Cent – In Da Club Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
As many have already pointed out, songs like this serve two different functions, which is highly unusual; understanding this point is the key to understanding the value of the song. On one hand we have the actual musical content, which is admittedly mediocre. Yes, 50 can occasionally be witty and yes, his deep voice is smooth yet sinister enough to make us actually believe many of his pompous boasts (well, some of them at least). Still, the song is sorely lacking in lyrical content (just read the hook a few times) and the beat, while..."powerful", is also simplistic and, I guess, "overly repetitive." However, as many have rightly said (for them!), this is a great song- a "part of the worth of hip-hop" song- because songs like this also are about getting drunk with your friends while trying to be around members of the opposite sex. And hopefully do more than just be around them. So here's the issue: you had to actually be doing the things in the song while it's playing, in order to really feel that it is a great song. You have to understand that some of us were stumbling around drunk, in college or perhaps slightly after, having the time of our lives: as in grinding on girls' asses, joking and clowning with our friends, trying to fuck, fucking... and while we were in the club- singing or nodding our heads to the words in this song. Drunk off our asses. Wasted, shitfaced, hammered, gone. That is both the greatness and the limitation of this song. So to fully appreciate this, you have to have been doing that, or something close to it, at the time when it was "hot." And if you were able to get drunk and/or high enough, you had moments where you knew that all across the USA and elsewhere, people were doing the same thing, drinking and laughing and grinding to this same song- this absurd, audacious, mediocre song- and loving every second of it... |
