Songs you love...except for ONE thing

[Whitefox]

"But I was losing my FREEDOM" on Careful what you wish for. Sounds corny to me


Missouri from Michigan didn't work, so we moved
Back to Missouri from Michigan, from Missouri back to Michigan

I dont like how he says it at the same time trying to catch up with beat.

The Monster, you know what's wrong there? Rihanna, she just fucks up the whole thing. ( still better singer than many other nowadays )

She makes the song. Her hook is catchy as fuck and I'd rather have her on the hook than Skylar Grey

[Notalius]

The oink oink oink, doink doink doink part in So much better.

But the song is still one of my favorites

I hate a lot of things on that song. The bluetooth shit, the start, the beat is to messy for my liking.

I absoulutely love the hook, I found myself singing along with it after the first listen. My friends, who hate eminem, thought I was going insane. Rihanna over Skylar Grey for this song. I dont think Grey would have sounded as good as rihanna does on The Monster.

I love Survival... except for the Hook

The ending of Mockingbird. Like honestly the whole song was clean with no cussing which I don't care about but it's just like if I wanted to show how Em is a really cool rapper who raps about real stuff to let's say an adult who hates rap. I might go to Mockingbird and show them the nice lyrics and everything but then at the end he says the thing about breaking the birdie's neck and not to fuck with dad. I guess it's alright it just sometimes feels a little out of place considering the rest of the song.

It's funny, because I love that line for the same reason.

I kinda agree. It doesn't bother me a lot, but I feel like he could have just said "don't mess with dad" and everything would've been perfect.

Beautiful Pain and that motherfucking "Motherfreakin----DEEPEND"

[metsfan1121]

I'm usually the type not to complain but for this thread...
Drips first verse ruins it.
You're never over chorus ruins it.
Evil Twin the whole "got em titties cut off with a cleaver" part is a bit over the top for me
Rap God chorus is pretty meh, moves it from top 3 on album to 6 or 7 for me
So Far is too long
Like Toy Soldiers beat moves it from a top 10 song to the 30ish range
Sayin Goodbye to Hollywood could use a better hook, goes from top 10 to 30ish like LTS
Rabbit Run could've used a little melody in the beginning or end, not the middle though
Not Afraid the "cut the crap" line
Beautiful, the sample in the beginning and end could've been at least overlayed with em's vocals
And last but not least, one that's bothered me for a longtime, one of his top 5 songs of all-time IMO, Sing For The Moment, would flourish with more eminem on the chorus or at least with a bridge

[Devil'sAdvocate]

So Far too long? fuck you, nigga was strutting over that shit.

[Ares]

Berzerk and that shitty 2nd verse

[EminemInsider]

Sing For The Moment, would flourish with more eminem on the chorus or at least with a bridge

Oh, fuck no. You merely suggesting this makes me grateful Eminem knew how to make a great song back then. The thought of Sing For the Moment with one of Eminem's poppy bridges gives me a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach.



Now, as for parts of good songs that somewhat bother me:

On Say Goodbye to Hollywood, "my dad, cuz I hate him so bad/the worst feeling I had." I wish he could have figured out a better rhyme scheme to lead into "fuckin ass/understand."

And if I'm really nitpicking...while I understand why he did it, on Rock Bottom there is one line that kind of bothers me. "While playa hatas turnin bitch like they have vaginas." This was technically the right thing to do, as Eminem had thrown the rhyme syllables out of alignment with the ending, "past behind us." In brilliant Eminem form, he switched for those 4 lines into A-B-A-B mode (past behind us/half pinters/have vaginas/cash blind us). But the line itself is clearly there for the rhyme scheme, and sometimes I wish he could have thought of something better, that fit the mood better. The whole "playa hatas" term is pretty lame, and "turnin bitch like they have vaginas" is a lame semi-punchline.
