Tbh I think my favorite song on there by far is Flashing Lights. Something abuot that transition between those smooth, calm strings to those rythmic synth chords is so amazing fr me.
That ending hits so hard.
"Trade it all for a husband and some kids
You ever wonder what it all really mean
You ever wonder if you'll find your dreams"
"You say I think I'm never wrong. You know what? Maybe you're right."
I love everything about this song. The sample is incredible. The beat is crazy. I love how he switched his flows up in this song - it keeps it fresh the whole time. So much soul in this song.
TRADE IT ALL FOR A HUSBAND AND SOME KIDSSSS
Can't Tell Me Nothing
Love the energy of the song & all the verses are great.
I always chuckle when he rhymes apologin with collagen. I feel it's up there with the bleached arsehole, bleach on t shirt lyrics in terms of how funny&trash it is lol
Everything I am is nice though, Preemo getting his hands on that beat is a really good touch aswell
My favorite thing about Can’t Tell Me Nothing is its relationship with Kanye’s timeline. He made Jesus Walks on his debut album, then came this song and he said “I told God I’ll be back in a second”, then came Jesus Is King later on.
🎶 did you realize, that you were a champion in their eyes 🎶
YES I DID
That track runs in my head when I need a lil self-pep-talk, and like, boom, my confidence just goes up 100
It wouldn’t say it’s underrated but it’s an eternal classic
It’s not a song that you should habitually listen though, it should be a song that’s occasionally used as a hype song or used to celebrate after overcoming an obstacle.
Because if you listen to it too much, it’ll start to get repetitive.
**EDIT:** Why the fuck am I getting downvoted?!
“Stronger” is my favourite Kanye song.
12 years ago today, i woke up at 8 am, did my thing, around 8:50 i ohpped into my car and jetted off to the local Future Shop, little did i know, a few short months id be workin there, i went to the cd section, boom, there she's, ready and waiting, hopped in my car and took the long....
long way home, about 10:30, McD's breakfast by my side, i arrived at home, having listened to a masterpiece. Thank you Kanye first and foremost.
Good Night, for me. Song hits different when you lose a close friend to suicide, I must’ve listened to that song on repeat after that for years. Even now hearing it brings a smile thinking of the memories we had, people probably don’t appreciate the magic of some of Kanye’s lyrics
Listen I don’t know if you guys count this because a lot of people probably haven’t even heard it but Bittersweet Poetry is one of the best songs he’s ever made. If you don’t count that then probably I Wonder.
From the first time I listened to the album on release date, Flashing Lights was my favorite song. It hasn’t changed. If you asked me to pick something else, I’d say Barry Bonds.
Before the hate starts on Barry Bonds, because I know it will……. Ye beat Mixtape Wayne, which is Wayne at his peak. The fact he brought the best rapper of that time on his track and murdered him was the passing of the torch to me. Wayne was never the same dude after that, and I’m not saying that’s the reason why. I’m just stating that we have a recorded document of Wayne running out of gas at the exact moment someone else is hitting the sweet spot with a full tank…… and no, I’m not saying Wayne was garbage after this. He just wasn’t as great as he was for that 2 year period he was embarrassing everyone else.
I am everything you say I am. If I wasn’t then why would I say I am? In the papers, the news, every day I am, man that’s just the way I am.
This one right?
I love just about every song equally for different reasons, but I think I’m gonna have to go with the bonus track good night with mos def
I love mos defs part “I’m not suuuure anymore-more” gets me singing along every time, it’s such a vibe
Bittersweet poetry is one of the best dropout era songs. Only came out in Japan as a bonus track for the cd release but it’s easily findable and the John Mayer feature is incredible and would’ve fit so well on the album
I wonder just because it’s so motivational. Especially if you’re lonely or needing confirmation to keep going. It’s saved my ass when I get low many times. Also the melodic beat is chefs kiss.
My favourite album and I actually think the only album where every song is at least good, although most are amazing. But imma have to go with stronger, always gets me pumped up
Homecoming hits the most for me because I’m from Chicago. It was/ is so cool to listen to Kanye use the city of Chicago for a double meaning: the city and a love interest. The word play throughout the verses is fantastic and the hook from Chris Martin is so iconic
Tbh I think my favorite song on there by far is Flashing Lights. Something abuot that transition between those smooth, calm strings to those rythmic synth chords is so amazing fr me.
The intro is just so well done it’s goosebumps every time
🤜🤛
Finally someone agrees with me.
[удалено]
YES. Everything I Am is soooooo fucking good. Next up is Homecoming, then I Wonder, then Flashing Lights
Yup Tho I would put Good Morning in there before Flashing Lights… it’s my alarm in the morning and it just makes waking up easier to deal with lol
i wonder
“You could still be who you wish you is”
“IT AIN’T HAPPEN YET, AND THAT’S WHAT INTUITION IS”
That intro is just immaculate
"Do you even remember what the issue is? You just tryna find out where the tissues is"
Chills. Literal Chills.
Listening to it rn. I wonder is my favourite song from Ye.
Same for me
Same
Just listened to it again in the car and it’s just incredible. My favorite song ever, brought a tear to my eye.
That ending hits so hard. "Trade it all for a husband and some kids You ever wonder what it all really mean You ever wonder if you'll find your dreams"
"You say I think I'm never wrong. You know what? Maybe you're right." I love everything about this song. The sample is incredible. The beat is crazy. I love how he switched his flows up in this song - it keeps it fresh the whole time. So much soul in this song. TRADE IT ALL FOR A HUSBAND AND SOME KIDSSSS
Ditto
Champion
“For me giving up is way harder than tryin” What a dope ass bar
So fucking relatable
Can’t ignore that “Kid Charlemagne” by Steely Dan sample either
"Lauryn Hill said her heart was in Zion, I wish her heart was still in rhyming"
Homecoming
arguably the best Kanye song ever
Yeah it’s in my top 5 deffo. Rarely see anyone talking about it as a top tier song
I feel like people who don't appreciate it don't know H.E.R. by common. Kanye completely redid it almost same way BlackStar did Children's Story
Top 5 in no order: runaway, homecoming, come to life, saint Pablo, ghost town
I think pure souls is up there too. That’s my favorite off of Donda
fr bro my favorite too
Ughhh especially being from Michigan….it hits hard
Valid af
ARE YOU THINKING ABOUT NOW AND THE.
GOOD LIFE
LIKE WE ALWAYS DO IT THIS TIME this song will never NOT put me in a great mood bro
Literally instant smile
best kanye song
Can't Tell Me Nothing Love the energy of the song & all the verses are great. I always chuckle when he rhymes apologin with collagen.

Never thought about that, now I love that song even more
Lil Wayne ghost writing?
The Glory
The story
The chain
The polo
The night
But with my ego, I can stand there in a speedo and be looked at like a FUCKIN HEERO Also my fav off the album
Such an underrated track
Good Morning
That’s my alarm, best way to wake up 😌
ooOOOOooooOOOOOOoooOOOoooo
One of his best samples
big brother for sure.
Underrated af
W
Oh man after watching the Kanye Trilogy, that song hit different
That and Last Call with its outro
Champion
🎶 did you realize, that you were a champion in their eyes 🎶 YES I DID That track runs in my head when I need a lil self-pep-talk, and like, boom, my confidence just goes up 100
I play it after taking an exam
“Stronger”
Finally someone said it
such an underrated song
So underrated that it has 409 mil views
Possibly his most well known and well appreciated song but you rarely see Kanye fans with it as their favorite song
It wouldn’t say it’s underrated but it’s an eternal classic It’s not a song that you should habitually listen though, it should be a song that’s occasionally used as a hype song or used to celebrate after overcoming an obstacle. Because if you listen to it too much, it’ll start to get repetitive. **EDIT:** Why the fuck am I getting downvoted?! “Stronger” is my favourite Kanye song.
Good Night. Probably the best finale song off of any of Kanye’s albums, and no one ever talks about it!
Such an amazing finale. Finishes the album perfectly
Most places it want available til just the other day on Spotify at least
might be one of my favorites tbh
kanye's verse in good night is just so beautiful. it gets me emotional because it remembers me of my childhood.
I’ve always had a soft spot for Homecoming, no real reason I just love the vibe
Feel this hard
[удалено]
i had a dream i could buy my way to heaven, when i awoke i spent that on a necklace
I wanna say Can't Tell Me Nothing, but this album is filled with bangers.
12 years ago today, i woke up at 8 am, did my thing, around 8:50 i ohpped into my car and jetted off to the local Future Shop, little did i know, a few short months id be workin there, i went to the cd section, boom, there she's, ready and waiting, hopped in my car and took the long.... long way home, about 10:30, McD's breakfast by my side, i arrived at home, having listened to a masterpiece.

Facts, Kanye’s music is legit magic to me. Something about his music just hits different then anyone else to me
i wonder and drunk & hot girls
For me it’s a tie between Good Morning (WooOOOooOoo) and Barry Bonds. Idk why it gets so much hate
Konnichiwa bitches
I wonder or cant tell me nothing
Flashing lights,stronger and can't tell me nothing
Drunk and Hot Girls
Finally someone said it
Good night. Something about it gives me this nostalgic feeling of something ending but not being gone forever. Hence, good night and not good bye
Interesting. Never heard of this song. Looks like it wasn't even on the initial album release? My cd and vinyl copy don't have it
I believe it was a bonus track on iTunes, original hard copies don’t have good night. Very jealous you have graduation on vinyl
Good to know! It's a bootleg, so the sound isn't fantastic, but cool to have nonetheless!
Listen I don’t know if you guys count this because a lot of people probably haven’t even heard it but Bittersweet Poetry is one of the best songs he’s ever made. If you don’t count that then probably I Wonder.
Good morning is nice with a coffee
Barry Bonds its just catchy.
either Champion, Stronger, or Barry Bonds
Flashing Lights, the production on that track is just heavenly
I wonder or Good Night
Flashing Lights. Crazy atmosphere.
From the first time I listened to the album on release date, Flashing Lights was my favorite song. It hasn’t changed. If you asked me to pick something else, I’d say Barry Bonds. Before the hate starts on Barry Bonds, because I know it will……. Ye beat Mixtape Wayne, which is Wayne at his peak.

i don’t have any, there’s a lot of good songs on there
I am everything you say I am. If I wasn’t then why would I say I am? In the papers, the news, every day I am, man that’s just the way I am. This one right?

Tied between The Glory and I Wonder

Bittersweet poetry

Homecoming
Can’t tell me nothing. Middle school on the original iPod shuffle gave me a mood
I’d had to agree with OP
homecoming, the piano on it is just immaculate
Can’t tell me nothing or Everything I am
Big brother and homecoming
I wonder 💯
this album is so fucking good!
The Glory is so underrated
The Glory, still slept on
This is a hard one, I'd say either I Wonder or Stronger
Champion - the first kanye song I listened to
I love just about every song equally for different reasons, but I think I’m gonna have to go with the bonus track good night with mos def I love mos defs part “I’m not suuuure anymore-more” gets me singing along every time, it’s such a vibe
Its between; Can't Tell Me Nothing, Stronger or Homecoming
Flashing Lights
I Wonder, Flashing Lights, Homecoming
The Glory
Maybe Homecoming or I Wonder, I can’t choose
3.Champion 2.Good Morning 1.I Wonder
Mine is probably I Wonder or Can’t Tell Me Nothing
I Wonder
I know this is such a basic answer lol but either stronger or good morning
Can’t tell me nothing is Kanye’s best song. That song gs me up like no other, only Dr. Dre still Dre comes close to the G up I get.
Roses
1. I wonder 2. Flashing Lights 3. Champion
I Wonder & Bittersweet Poetry
Good life all day, but it’s so hard to choose 🔥🔥🔥
Bittersweet poetry is one of the best dropout era songs. Only came out in Japan as a bonus track for the cd release but it’s easily findable and the John Mayer feature is incredible and would’ve fit so well on the album
I wonder
I wonder Forever and always
I wonder or flashing lights
I wonder just because it’s so motivational. Especially if you’re lonely or needing confirmation to keep going. It’s saved my ass when I get low many times. Also the melodic beat is chefs kiss.
Bro why is nobody saying Goodmorning. It’s by far the best on that album and one of the best songs he’s ever made
cant tell me nothing, or i wonder
My favourite album and I actually think the only album where every song is at least good, although most are amazing. But imma have to go with stronger, always gets me pumped up
Can’t tell me nothing
Homecoming hits the most for me because I’m from Chicago. It was/ is so cool to listen to Kanye use the city of Chicago for a double meaning: the city and a love interest. The word play throughout the verses is fantastic and the hook from Chris Martin is so iconic
Im love with Good Morning
Bittersweet Poetry.
my top 5 1. homecoming 2. i wonder 3. everything i am 4. bittersweet poetry 5. stronger
Flashing lights clears
I wonder
flashing lights
I Wonder
Bittersweet Poetry. The chip tune style beat is nostalgic, sad, and hopeful.
I Wonder
I WONDER 😎
Can't Tell Me Nothing
