    pure emotion. hate to say it but what is he gunna write about that he hasn't already written about. not to mention he's a middle age man lives in surburbia with kids in college. He doesn't leave the house the man is a nerd. It would be different if he was out there traveling spending money and enjoying his life. But every time you see him in the press which is very rare he looks miserable as fu-. he needs to get the fu- out of Detroit and live. He needs to stop hanging onto the past.

    When I'm Gone is a classic. and back in 05, it was the last sign of old EM. But I Think Deju Vu, Beautiful, and Going Through Changes are better and some of his best songs

    I've always felt When I'm Gone is overrated.

    He sounds exactly like he did on Mosh, just lazy as h--- with his flow.

    It sounds like fake emotion, I can't stand it.

    Deja Vu is better. I don't think it's even close, either.

    It's a shame because When I'm Gone is a great concept, has pretty solid lyrics, but I can't get over his f---ing delivery in it.

    Since 2005 it's a tie between When Im Gone and No Apologies as the best song, after those, it's a tie between Deja Vu and Going Through Changes

    The Sweden line would have been much better if it was "But baby we're in Sweden, how did you get here this evenin?"

    Fake emotion? He literally broke down crying in the middle of recording several times and had to stop. It's one of the last signs of raw emotion from him.

    Not to make the Sweden line worse but he didnt come here, he was about to but cancelled it like he did with the rest of europe when he was about to kick off his anger management tour in 2005.

    but i mean at least he thought he was goin when he wrote it :kanye3:

    Great song. But I would probably put No Apologies, Talkin To Myself, Going Through Changes, Space Bound, and 25 To Life ahead of it. Also Airplanes 2 if we're including features.

    I really wish Em still had it in him to leave us with one more MMLP or TES like classic. I can still listen to those albums fully and think "d---, these are amazing"

    What's up with the Sweden line? Why do you think it's so bad?

    never said it was bad. I'm saying people shouldn't dismiss the song based on one line they may not like.
