Welcome to Delossantosjâs Song of the Week!! (mod approved) In this thread I will post a song every week that deserves a shot in the spotlight!

SONG OF THE WEEK: Ropes-Foo Fighters
with the foo fighters new single off there number selling album that HASNT EVEN COME OUT YET i feel like this song deserves a win for this first week.
with epic guitar riffs, kick butt drumming, and strong dave vocals this song has everything going for it.
lyrics: This indecision got me climbing up the walls I've been cheating gravity and waiting on the falls How did this come over me, I thought I was above it all Our hopes gone up in smoke, swallow your crown
On a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you On a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now Give me some rope I'm coming, out of my head, into the clear when you, go, I, go, No
These premonitions got me crying up a storm
Leave your condition, this position does no harm
On a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you On a kiss, I thought I'd save my breath for you
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now Give me some rope I'm coming, out of my head, into the clear when you, go, I, go, No
Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm hanging on you Give me some rope I'm coming loose, I'm pulling for you now Give me some rope I'm coming, out of my head, into the clear when you, go, I, go, No
this weeks song of the week comes to the wonderfull peace of work that is "my beautiful dark twisted fantasy". and with almost every big name artist featured in this song, its almost hard NOT to make it song of the week.
off of one of the most influential albums of the new decade here is kanye west's, All of the Lights
WARNING NOT FOR PEOPLE PRONE TO SEIZURES.
as for the runner up, the runner up also comes from an amazing album from around may 2010. it's kind of a long song, and it is kind of slow at the beggining, but believe me, you HAVE to stick through and listen to the whole song, cause if you only listen to part of it, you wont appreciate it.

You see... he thing is... I have a disliking for this artist! There are a few (and only a few) songs I like from him and this one is again rubbish to me... =/ He is SO full of himself (to start with) which makes me roll my eyes every time his name comes up and as for his music, he has no vibe in his music if you ask me! Take Timbaland for comparison, he gives an instant vibe to every song he touches, either for own presentation or as a producer! And that's just something Kanye West can never achieve, even if he wants to SO bad...

As for yor runner up... you were right on the beginning! It starts out as somethng you grow tired of in a matter of seconds if it were the whole song, but THEN... it picks up the beat and that's just... ... *tries to find the right words* ... ...YEAH! A simple, but nice and easy settling rythym making it a great song to listen to! Excellent!! =D
If I had to choose between the two songs, I'd say the runner up beats the first choice by a mile!! =)
I didn't really like the Kanye West song, because spending 1:04 watching a little girl walking gets pretty boring. The flashing lights gave me a headache, but the music for the opening was kind of cool.
In the the runner up, I liked the drums in the opening. The lyrics were great, and the repeating of the lyrics with the beat is just fantastic. 3:08=greatest drop in the history of the world. The woodwind, (not sure which) is pretty good.
The runner-up is WAY better then the first choice. The runner up is more laid back, and the first choice is like "Look at me I'm Kanye West! I'm better then God!! You will vaporize in my awesomeness!!".
this album is alot different then ANY other album kanye west has done. in fact all of the lights is about his girl friend dumping him and him not being allowed to see his daughter, thats who the little girl represents at the beggining. this album truely did come from kanye wests heart and not his ego. which is why its aclaimed as high as it is
i dont like skillet. if you can find a newer song by them that i might like please feel free to share them with me on my page, but again, im not a fan but you can try if youd like
this weeks song of the week comes from a couple of rising stars. they recently got some serious exposure while touring with the big name group you may have heard of called 30 seconds to mars.
so ive personally seen them cause i went to a show from that tour.
great kick you in the face song here with busy bein' born-by middle class rut
as for the runner up. well the beastie boys released a new song called "make some noise" unfortunatly there are no videos of it yet cause it literally jsut came out i think 3 days ago.
lyrics to busy bein' born
[Zack sings:] The days keep dragging on Those rats keep pushing on, woah The slowest race around We all just race around, woah
[Both sing:] And when the hope's gone the weight falls on me Yeah, when I'm gone, the weight falls on me
[Zack sings:] No sense in signing up You're names already in Go ahead, yea, **** it up, The next guy pays for it
'Cuz what I get ain't half of what I give and half don't suit me anyway
'Cuz what I get ain't half of what I give and half don't suit me anyway
Maybe I sacrifice to feel like I'm alive Penniless⦠itâs all the same At least I'll die with a name
I ain't dead yet!
Give it back! Or Iâll take it!
Give it back! Or Iâll take it!
Or Iâll take it!
Maybe I sacrifice to feel like I'm alive Penniless⦠itâs all the same At least I'll die with a name
Maybe I sacrifice to feel like I'm alive Penniless⦠itâs all the same At least I'll die with a name
Give it back! Or Iâll take it!
Give it back! Or Iâll take it!
[Both sing:] And when the hope's gone The weight falls on me Yeah, when I'm gone The weight falls on me
And when the hope's gone The weight falls on me Yeah, when I'm gone The weight falls on me
