How do you memorize Em songs?

Postby SoldierShady » Jan 5th, '11, 18:42

Just curious here if you guys have like....methods of doing this. Do you use lyrics off the net.? I just replay the song over and over for a couple of days and I usually know it by heart after a week. And while we're on this subject; how many of you know 'Difficult' by heart now?

I guess if you listen to the same songs for years, you start to learn them.
I usually look at some lyrics, too, because I'm not a native English speaker.
And yeah, I know Difficult by heart. I had that shit on repeat for four or five days, and I learned it. :coffee:

I read the lyrics and rap along with Eminem. After that, I rap alone on the instrumental :flower:. Songs that I know by heart: Lose Yourself, The Way I Am, The Real Slim Shady, Stan, Till I Collapse, Cleaning Out My Closet, Rock Bottom, When I'm Gone, Like Toy Soldiers, Love You More, Mockingbird, Not Afraid, Love The Way You Lie, No Love, Space Bound, Seduction, ...ow yeah, and Sing For The Moment :wave:. Difficult ? Not yet...

I don't set out to do it, it just happens.

I know every Em song off by heart but it's just from listening to them a lot.

There is not one song that I memorized completely, but I would like to do it with some songs when I got time.

Yeah, maybe I have a good memory or something... I don't sit there and try to learn them or anything honestly lmao, I just know them.

But it's not just Eminem lyrics, I remember a lot of information in detail, and when I talk or write people think I've put tons of thought into it lmao when I haven't, it's just the way I think / speak. Maybe I'm autistic, haha nah I'm not. Just obsessive.

Though, with Em lyrics I doubt I'm alone in that. A lot of fans know all his shit. And it's not just Em fans, I mean I know a lot of Nas lyrics too. The only reason people remember Em's shit more is because of how melodic and catchy he is. Everything is insanely musical, that's what he's always had above many other rappers, he's got a truly musical mind, it's not just rapping.

Well, it takes repetition pretty much. If I listen to a song long enough, eventually I start to get the words and I'll rap a long to them. I'll know most of the lyrics for a while, and only have a fuck up every now and then. But, I know A LOT of Em songs word for word

Especially Relapse, which I listened to for months straight
