Really classy song with a perfect atmosphere for the theme.

Kind of prove how essential musical backing is to Em's words too.

Imagine the lyrics and concept of "Legacy" over some piece of shit Recovery beat, it would go from being a 9/10 song to about a 7, if that.

The piano and rain, and feel of this song is perfect.

This and Brainless is the best tracks on the album for me.
TrShady is just great. A place where pompousus blowhards can connect with other pompousus blowhards, and form a vast circle jerk of pomposity.

The boosting on the low frequencies for EQ gave him a trapped feel for the first two verses. Then the last verse is normal EQ and it sounds like he's free. Whew.

Yes. :) Most played MMLP 2 track for me to date.
"So one last time, I'm back, 'fore it fades into black and it's all over, behold the final chapter in the saga, trying to recapture that lightning trapped in a bottle twice, the magic that started it all...tragic portrait of an artist tortured....trapped in his own drawings..." - Bruce.

When someone can't understand the genius of this song, especially the writing, atmosphere and vocal performance which actually almost borders on an acting performance, they might as well be telling me that the sun isn't bright or that birds don't fly.

It's an instant top ten Em song for me and I'm not a knee-jerk reaction kind of person but c'mon, keeping the same rhyme scheme through-out the whole song without sacrificing a single line, this song is "On Fire" on fire.

Oh and the chorus, it's so enchanting. Perfect.

Yes. I've slowly come to appreciate this song over time. I think it has a very valid message and riveting storytelling elements.

Needs an Elton John Hook.
Well, this track or Bad Guy does.

I didn't really notice the beauty of it at first but I'm loving it more and more as each listen goes by.

Am I the only one who read the thread title and thought this would be a thread comparing Legacy and Beautiful from Relapse?
