    It's the most pop/radio friendly song obviously.. people like it because they know other people like it

    When 808's came out I was among the Kanye fans that were puzzled by the album and preferred his others, but Love Lockdown and Heartless both stood out for me.

    Of course soon after I gave the album a chance and I love it. Heartless has always remained a fave of mine.

    I understand, those are the more traditional songs meant to hook a wider audience to the album.

    But the pure bravery and refinement/innovation lie in the other songs imo.

    I prefer Love Lockdown over Heartless tbh.. much more artistic imo

    I'm not a Street Lights type a guy, but i understand the people who love it.

    Amazing is like the anti-thesis of Street Lights

    All great songs when you're in the mood :) Which is often.
