Also he is fucking hot in that video, guys (except gays) can't get that and I feel sorry for you guys. :shifty:

Are people gonna mention Recovery everytime he raises his voice now?
Fuck top five, bitch, I'm top four
And that includes Biggie and Pac, whore
And I got an Evil Twin
So who the fuck do you think that third and that fourth spot's for?

It's closer because Recovery don't sound closer to any other of the previous. Survival has some elements of it, but... it's not in the same level. Em's writing and delivery are way better on Survival than on most of Recovery.

I said this when it came out, it's what Recovery should've been, but because everyone's heard Recovery they don't want to hear it.

The beat would only fit on Recovery. His flow isn't like Recovery. He yells, but it's not really Recovery-fuck-up-my-voice yelling. It's genuine emotion and anger. There is a HUGE different between Survival and Recovery. Lyrically it shits all over Recovery, the punchlines are a lot better and sharper. The subject matter WOULD fit, you're right, but this song would not belong at all on Recovery.

If he had put Survival on Recovery, it would clearly be the best track on there. So ahead of Recovery. I laugh when people say it sounds like a Recovery throwaway, fuck that. I don't hear Recovery when I listen to this, I hear something entirely new.

Saying this is what Recovery should have been =/= Saying it should be on Recovery and belongs on it. It doesn't at all.

StayWideAwake wrote:People just need to get over their expectations and analysis. When SSLP and MMLP came out people didn't pick each and every song apart into 100 peices. Listeners wanted to be impressed. They just wanted to see what he would do and what he would say. If you take that attitude it's much harder to be let down...and you won't turn into a miserable nitpicker.


This is what I try to tell everyone. It's ridiculous. People just won't LET GO, and they'll constantly be like "this isn't as good as his old shit" when really Survival IS as good.

Really, I believe that it is. It's one of my favorite Eminem songs ever. It's powerful, he's on point and he hits home. You are able to separate his new work from his old work and not nitpick and you can see he has quite a few songs that would go up there with his old work. Survival is one of them. The lyrics are TOO fucking good and SO unlike Recovery that it's baffling to even put it beside Recovery.

He has SO much energy on this song, you cannot take that away from him. He sounds so alive, it was refreshing to hear something like it after so long of getting honestly lackluster verses.

At some stage Eminem should just scream down a mic and say, "See, Recovery wasn't that bad."

I like Survival, it's perfect for what it is. But you guys thinking this wouldnt fit right in on Recovery are wrong. The beat, the hook, the survival theme all fit the bill.
