Bad points about CWYWF?

Postby SoldierShady » Jan 13th, '11, 17:51

I don't get why this song is so underrated/gets a 'meh' response from everyone . i personally it's a flawless track and is the most Eminem-sounding Eminem song since he came back. Definitely in my top 5.

So someone tell me what's so wrong with this song?
"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.

Bad points about CWYWF?

(1) It's too short. Would like another verse
(2) The fact he mentioned Encore in the same sentence as Illmatic

It's a great song though, I love how his voice sounds on it (no homo)

But Encore just didn't have the caliber to match it
I guess enough time just ain't passed, yet
A couple more years, that shit'll be ill-matic


Plus the average rhyming. The first verse is okay, but the second verse is pretty bad, especially his flow.

I honestly used to love it, but I guess it was because it was one of the few "serious" songs we had when Relapse was released. When I took of my rose-tinted specs I realized it wasn't that great. Glad it wasn't on Relapse, not interesting enough.

Yeah, same here. I kept bumping and bumping it, and later it was just... meh.

Surely the Encore-Illmatic line was sarcastic. That's what I've always assumed.

Always found it a pretty boring song though.

I love this song.
One of the best beats Em has ever rapped on IMO.
Rhyming is sub-par I guess, but since I don't really care much about rhyming, it doesn't bother me.

The track gives me chills TBH.

Too short, loved it at first and now it's just merely alright to me

Came back to annihilate, the game's in dire straights, as I await
Word on Satan, as I drop, fall to my knees before this Quija board and I pray
Now I lay me down to sleep
I do this shit in my sleep, I’m sleepin' now, imagine if I awake

It's not bad but doesn't have too much re playability imo. My Darling is much better.
