I'm gonna be honest and say the hook on WBD is one of the most annoying things I've ever heard.

I use to think that the hook was a part of the beat. and Eminem got it like that.

I love Pink's voice on the track. She has the perfect rock voice for such a track in my opinion. First two verses are kinda average although there are some good lines now and then. Third verse makes up for it (more or less) so I'm actually one of the few fans of this song.

Beat is insane but kindda disappointing when I listen to the live versions. They should have recorded a live version of it just like Kanye West and Common did on one of the tracks on Be.

When I saw the tracklist I expected it to be something heartfelt and slow. Normally I'm not a Pink fan (nor a Rihanna fan) but if they bring something good to the track, I don't care if their own albums suck.

I despised it when it got leaked, but now I fucking love it. Crank that shit up to max volume and is a crazy pump-you-up song. The beat kicks ass with a nice set of headphones.

I think it is. When I heard pink was on it, I wasn't sure what to expect, so I youtubed some of her songs, and I liked a handful of them, actually became a bit of a fan lol. So seeing the title of the song and that it featured pink, I was a expecting more serious, heartfelt, just more powerful than a punchline song. I feel like having pink on it was a wasted feature.

I don´t understand the hate on won´t back down :coffee: .I also like rock music much, so I love the beat,is insane.Pink is right on the song too.
And eminem seems to really enjoy performing this song.What happens is that they have realized that most fans don´t like it.And the song is not commercial.Thats why it has not been a single.

I was disappointed when i first heard it. I'd place it among the least favoured on Recovery but i do enjoy it a little more now, nice workout track. Pink is an artist i approve of Em collaborating with.

Great song, but I wish he got someone else to do the hook.

I was expecting this track between Eminem and Pink to be something equivalent to"Stan" so naturally when the track came out I was kind of disappointed but well, I do like the song regardless of what I had expected.
