Title: Songs that grew on you and eventually became favs?
Post by: herbie on January 25, 2020, 01:47:32 AM
Songs where you were like wtf  :uhh: when you first heard it
But ended up loving it more than a lot of the artist's catalog

"I Want You" is def one for me
I remember it being the first "1st single" Jan released post-nipplegate
I was expecting for kwee to release something hot, upbeat...To get us dancin' and make us forget that she flashed her breast on live national TV

So I was sitting right next to the radio , waiting for them to premiere it
Then I heard these slow ass drums coming in  :uhh: like wtf....

But eventually it became one of my favs from her :stressed: especially after seeing the visual
it's so sexy and chill.

Very poor choice to release after Super Bowl but I agree. Took me years to get in but Jans ate IWY!!

RHD for sure... after the accident and the wait from Afrodisiac, I thought she was going to release some epic ass Timbaland song (ex. Drum Life) to wheel the world back in...

I still wanna fight whoever was her A&R at the time... how you let DL, Home & WTLN or even Freedom not become singles or even make the album smh

Didn't realize at the time but RHD was perfect! I just wish it had a better video and better follow-up singles.
Title: Re: Songs that grew on you and eventually became favs?
Post by: Hatsumomo on January 25, 2020, 09:13:01 AM
RHD should've actually been followed up with some of the unreleased songs .. like Freedom, Drum Life or even One Thing .. Long Distance wasn't a good follow up single

If only RHD had LD's video

Literally didn't start liking Who Is She 2 U until last year. Dcdcdcdddddddd

And Solange's album went from being the worst album I've ever heard to one of my favs probably  of all time. :dead: It just had to settle in. The harmonies and ad libs at the end of Down.... the song reminds me so much of the "Mary" album, which is one of my favorite albums. Can't believe I didn't use this song at first

Musically, I realize I'm very entitled. Dddddddddd If it's not what I was expecting or wanting from the artist, I'm PISSED. But when I revisit mess with an open mind/ear and no expectations, It often grows on me.

For Jhene's mess... her visuals brought different meanings to the songs for me. The Pressure was always such a depressing song to me, but the visual created a completely new and different interpretation for me.

I STILL love this mess, only song I still rotate from 2-11 tbh

Can't believe I didn't use this song at first.... well, I don't think it was so much that "I didn't use", I just kinda overlooked it.

Definitely my favorite song atm.

In retrospect, that's my biggest criticism of Human. If she wanted to do an inspirational Pop album there were better songs she could have used.

Li & X - Come Back In One Piece

Was kinda confused why that was a single over Are You Feelin Me? and why it wasn't a better song produced by Tim or Swizz but I love it now!
