best song The-Dream Love/Hate

yeah love vs money was officially released in the UK...today.

I might be being dense here, but I still don't get why that line is so bad. Is it because nobody actually says "falltime"? And if so, he could have been making a sly reference to songwriting and its conventions or even his own occasional ineptness w/r/t lyrics, kind of like New Order often did. I mean, he coulda said "autumn" and have it scan pretty much the same, but then everyone would've been like "lol British!" I genuinely don't understand the criticism. Anyone?

some dude's just jealous he didnt think of "falltime" first - like a true dream-hater

I think I'm going to rep for "falltime" IRL now.

yeah thats what im saying, 'falltime' really doesnt sound weird at all imo

people actually say "summertime" and "springtime" -- they even say "wintertime" but he doesn't say that! that's why the line is shit!

i mean granted it could've been written in a knowing/playful way, but it's still shit

yeah i think at the very least it was that

Ha, I just realised I gave myself away by mentioning New Order -- I mean, I like shit lyrics!

how about 'a knowing/playful way, but its not shit' -- it really isnt that ridiculous i promise

i know you like rap w/ more awkwardly created lines

Yeah even if it was an awkward line - it doesn't strike me as one - there's so many more awkward/sub-literate stuff on the same album you could object to.

can you assemble a list to poll?

please don't :(

don't actually like this album all that much but Shawty Is da Sh*! is a jam.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

I luv ur girl/fast car

purple kisses
fast car
she needs my love
luv songs
falsetto
shawty is da shit!
playin in her hair
mama
livin a lie
nikki
I luv your girl
ditch that...

besides the first two and the last one, that's a reallll fluid ranking

hahaha thought i would never see the day when this poll would end

did I really not vote on this before?

gave mine to "She Needs My Love" because it seems to encapsulate everything he's capable of doing on this album more than any other track

"Fast Car"

^^was my favorite for a long time, but seems kind of limited in retrospek

answer same as it was back then, "she needs my love"

purrrrrple kisses, purrrrple kisses

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

every song got a vote = ^_^

winner otm

ya these results are good

"mama" still sadly underrated ;_;

yeah whoever voted that is awesome

^^^

took me a long time to f/w that song but once it got to me, it always makes me ;_;

"mama" still sadly underrated ;_;

I voted for it but TBH mainly because I expected no one else would. It's def one of my absolute favourites though. Always makes me cry too.

A lot of votes, all things considered.

it was open for 10 months after all

amazing how Los brings it so much harder than tricky on this album, besides "mama" the songs i love the most are all mckinneys

i'm not ashamed to say that "mama" kills me damn near every time

I am.

i never listen to that song tbh

05. She Needs My Love 8

i think this one got a bit overrated -- luv songs, falsetto & playin in her hair are all better

purrrrrple kisses, purrrrple kisses

bump "she needs my love" down a couple, slide "shawty is the shit" above "falsetto". theyre all so close besides "ditch that..." tho for me

the chorus sounds BIGGER than anything else he's done

yeah i feel that

"ditch that" has that middle section that sounds like chromeo -- my only problem w/ "ditch that" is that it's placed really weirdly on the album -- it's like they wrote & recorded the song & knew it was dope but didnt know where to place it

amazing how Los brings it so much harder than tricky on this album, besides "mama" the songs i love the most are all mckinneys

tbh, if you polled dream & los vs dream & tricky i would choose dream & los

Still prefer this album to Love vs Money.

i don't think you're in the minority there

well maybe you/we are, but not amongst xxcore dream stans

yeah i don't really like it at all but it being between PK & LS is just as bad - tbh "luv songs" does sort of work as a comedown after "ditch that" but i def feel like it and "purple kisses" should be side-by-side

xp re: ditch that
