No.

Best = opinion.

Successful = how much sold, how much played, what it does for the genre etc.

^ I don't play Lose Yourself too often either, but not for the same reason as you. I know it's great but usually I have to be in a prepared mood before listening to it. I play 8 Mile a lot though.

Yeah, my Dad's friend who's in his 50's - This is the song that got him onto Em.

He loves Em now, Encore was the first album he picked up of Em's cuz he said when he heard "Lose Yourself" he was blown away and went and bought the 8 Mile Soundtrack and Encore.

I did him copies of SSLP, MMLP, TES and Relapse though :) Imagine going from the worst album to the best. Think of that, he thought Encore was great because that was the first Em he'd heard.

Geno wrote:Is it just me, or do some of you guys not find Lose Yourself too appealing either? I mean, it's truly a great song, but I just don't like listening to it. I only like the hook, but the rest sounds boring to me. Maybe because its been 7 years, and its probably the most over played Em song.

I prefer Till I Collapse.

Don't hate, just an opinion. :wave:

I agree with this, it's gotten kinda boring over time. It's still a great song, it's just to overplayed IMO. 'till I collapse all the way! :D

Cause the shit I hear is crazy
But your either getting lazy or you don't believe in you no more
Seems like your own opinions, not one you can form
Cant make a decision you keep questioning yourself
Second guessing and its almost like your begging for my help
