Sean Paul, "Like Glue"

What do people think of the remix of Blu Cantrell's "Breathe" with Sean Paul? I really like it. I think I had been underrating Dr. Dre as a producer. He's been pretty consistently outstanding of late.

And again, the backing track to "Like Glue" really sounds the Magnetic Fields' Holiday.

Still don't hear it.

― s1utsky (slutsky), Friday, 1 August 2003 03:44 (twenty years ago) link

This is totally the best song on the album. But if you think of the "I'm Still In Love With You" / "International Affair" diptych as one song it might be a tie with that. It's just gorgeous how those two songs go together.

It's really a shame that "Deport Them" isn't on Dutty Rock.

― cybele (cybele), Friday, 1 August 2003 06:03 (twenty years ago) link

amateurist vaguely otm about holiday-"like glue" confluence

deport them is a belter of a track - a like glue is such a peach of a tune, i've been playing it for, like, ever... also the whole of steely and clevie's old to the new album (re-versioning old joe gibbs classics and where i'm still in love with you comes from) is a pearler - beautiful, beautiful cut of i'm not ashamed by culture on it

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Friday, 1 August 2003 08:55 (twenty years ago) link

Nah the song on the tabla riddim is best, track 2 i think. I love the big skronky bassline on the Buy Ouy riddim, it's great that Sean Paul is an ambassador for all these awesome sounds.

― sean g, Friday, 1 August 2003 12:39 (twenty years ago) link

totally - that's why when a certain village voice ilx0r said about something "at least it's interesting, unlike what sean paul's doing" my reflex, "NO YOU'RE WRONG" response kicked in!

― Dave Stelfox (Dave Stelfox), Friday, 1 August 2003 13:00 (twenty years ago) link

haha - what jackass said that?

"Deport Them" is amazing, I also listen to that almost every day. Also Amateurist ever since you mentioned that "Breathe" track I've listened to it about 100 times.

― s1utsky (slutsky), Friday, 1 August 2003 17:30 (twenty years ago) link

Yeah, well, the eternal cry of the soulseek-less: can I find it anywhere on the internet?

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 1 August 2003 17:32 (twenty years ago) link

Email me & I can work something out for ya.

― s1utsky (slutsky), Friday, 1 August 2003 17:36 (twenty years ago) link

Wait I have to email you? Fuck this.

― amateurist (amateurist), Friday, 1 August 2003 17:37 (twenty years ago) link

I heard the clip of it on the end of the "Get Busy" video and downloaded the whole album on a dial-up just to find it, and now I put it on every mix cd and when I get a few drinks in me I start a "SEAN PAUL FOR PRESIDENT" campaign. Last night when I was kinda drunk and playing Risk I listened to Holiday twice through, and maybe it's just because the two are now conflated in my mind, but I totally see where you're coming from.

I really like the Althea & Donna sample in "International Affair", is that a popular riddim? It isn't very dancehall, that beat

― Sonny A. (Keiko), Friday, 1 August 2003 17:41 (twenty years ago) link

Does the US version not have "Samfy I" on the Glue riddim? Because that is the best track if "Get Busy" isn't.

― Tim Finney (Tim Finney), Sunday, 3 August 2003 08:41 (twenty years ago) link

seanpauls new video is so good. all the dancehall dance moves r on the video i was over happy when i first saw the video well done love u

― lil mo, Monday, 4 August 2003 00:02 (twenty years ago) link

Saw "Like Glue" performed live on MTV's "From the Hard Rock Cafe..." thing this weekend. Twas killer. Sean Paul sang the "trees up in my head" line with this beautiful escalating melody I hadn't heard before. Breathtaking. The guitar player screwed "Gimme the Light" up something awful, though.

― Ess (Ess), Monday, 4 August 2003 17:07 (twenty years ago) link

as any fule kno, i love this. first time i heard it was as a warm up to a hiphop show and i liked it more than anything that happened on stage that night.

― jessyca, Wednesday, 24 September 2003 23:37 (twenty years ago) link

When she says "number two" does he mean it in the way that R. Kelly means "number one"? I don't geddit.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Wednesday, 24 September 2003 23:44 (twenty years ago) link

She? Don't you mean he? When he says "Me nah play number two", I take this to mean that he won't play second fiddle to another guy in his relationships.

― o. nate (onate), Thursday, 25 September 2003 15:30 (twenty years ago) link

Actually, just because I'm a persnickity asshole, he says "Ima nah be number two."

oh yeah, I meant "he." Typo, sorry.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Thursday, 25 September 2003 20:05 (twenty years ago) link

this is really great, love the video, the 'guest' vocal by whatever is the name of the other guy and easily better than his first single.

hello bitch

― chollate smith, Monday, 5 April 2004 06:46 (twenty years ago) link

this was probably my last "oh wow" pop moment really. (by "last" i mean "most recent")(and by "oh wow" i mean "my god that's utterly wonderful i cannot wait until i hear it again")(by "pop" i mean "music"). i'm wondering if one of the reasons for this might be that it's one of the very few, in fact perhaps the only pop song i've loved in recent times that i didn't hear for the first time through mp3.

no, "Deport Dem", "Infiltrate" and "I'm Still In Love With You" are better than "Get Busy"

― The Brainwasher, Friday, 11 January 2008 20:59 (sixteen years ago) link

get busy is alright, not my favorite diwali tho

love like glue

― deej, Friday, 11 January 2008 21:04 (sixteen years ago) link

Def. not my favorite diwali. Not even my favorite diwali that was a US hit (Wayne Wonder kills) and possibly not even my second fav (Lumidee also amazing) and there were tons of Jamaican sides that cream it.

― Alex in SF, Friday, 11 January 2008 21:24 (sixteen years ago) link

nah, get busy is awesome. when it first came out i thought the melody was a little annoying but now it is classic.

― Jordan, Friday, 11 January 2008 21:28 (sixteen years ago) link

my fave Diwali is TOK - Galang Gal

― The Brainwasher, Friday, 11 January 2008 21:32 (sixteen years ago) link

Okay Lumidee? Come on now.

(Wayne Wonder is better, yes.)

― HI DERE, Friday, 11 January 2008 21:34 (sixteen years ago) link

― The Brainwasher, Friday, 11 January 2008 22:11 (sixteen years ago) link

best SP us singles are 'like glue', 'deport them' and 'gimme the light'

― J0rdan S., Friday, 11 January 2008 22:13 (sixteen years ago) link

can't help you there dude

― J0rdan S., Friday, 11 January 2008 22:14 (sixteen years ago) link

"Temperature" sounds good in a club (where I imagine it was designed to be heard).

― o. nate, Friday, 11 January 2008 22:26 (sixteen years ago) link

"Gimme the Light" is weak compared to practically all of his other singles.

― HI DERE, Friday, 11 January 2008 22:27 (sixteen years ago) link

Woman suffers seizures after hearing Sean Paul's music! according to Yahoo! headline!

― Alex in SF, Saturday, 19 January 2008 00:17 (sixteen years ago) link

that is scary! thank you for the warning

They clarify in the video that the problem is NOT with the song, but with the BRAIN!

― Alex in SF, Saturday, 19 January 2008 01:13 (sixteen years ago) link

― deej, Saturday, 19 January 2008 01:36 (sixteen years ago) link
