sian18 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I can't see how ppl are calling the song crap when it isn't even out yet. Ok lyrics aren't the best in world but the song could have a sick ass beat that gets the crowd going live wen mike raps the whole song himself live. Just at least wait till u hear it before u bash it Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/12670-linkin-park-debuts-good-goodbye-lyrics/page/3/#findComment-273309 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 You actually bring up a good point. I wonder if, live, they'll shorten the song to just 2 verses and include the Mike verse that got sidelined for Stormzy.

Mesck547 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 What else is there really to say? They made a bunch of pop songs, supposedly based on these great lyrics, that a ton of people think are garbage. The music is boring, the lyrics are shit, and it all sounds very generic. Once you've already declared the new stuff as boring, shitty and generic you're pretty much blocking any form of discussion... But it's your opinion and I respect it. You actually bring up a good point. I wonder if, live, they'll shorten the song to just 2 verses and include the Mike verse that got sidelined for Stormzy. Knowing LP, I'm guessing they're only going to play Mike's verse and the chorus Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/12670-linkin-park-debuts-good-goodbye-lyrics/page/3/#findComment-273311 Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeardyWilderness Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 (edited) I don't think I've EVER used the term "selling out" unironically at any point in the nearly 14 years I've been part of this community, but I have to say that Linkin Park allowing a line that refers to "hoes" to appear on an album is something that meets my definition of selling out. I realize this line was already crossed with the I'll Be Gone remix, but that was a remix, after all. Collision Course.

Justin Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 (edited) Mike himself actually said "hoe" on that album. I'm surprised people pissed at this song weren't pissed then that he chose to say the word rather than censor himself or replace it. "Money, cash, hoes. He's from the hood, stupid, what type of facts are those?"

Stormzy's and Pusha's styles of rapping are fairly different than Mike's, so I'm not sure he could pull the verses off. But he did pull off Rakim's verse from GATS as you mentioned and some of Jay Z's verses from Encore, so who knows.

But he did pull off Rakim's verse from GATS as you mentioned and some of Jay Z's verses from Encore, so who knows. He rapped like one line from Encore. Also Rakim was an influence on Mike already. Rakim's flow wasn't as much of a stretch as Stormzy's would be for Mike to adapt to. Listen to any Stormzy song and then imagine it being rapped with Mike's style.

mattyice318 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 I love Push and Mike. I love anything rap they've done for 15+ years. This studio track makes no sense. These three guys have nothing in common, not even a label association, and they mashed together for what could (and I hope not) be a bad song with great pieces. Go release a fort Minor mixtape Mike. You have pull and product to make great tracks again. Nobody really cares to here a DBS track on an LP studio album, don't be selfish enough to put a self proclaimed ill fitting track on, just because you can't be bothered to make FM2 Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/12670-linkin-park-debuts-good-goodbye-lyrics/page/3/#findComment-273320 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesper Posted April 12, 2017 Share Posted April 12, 2017 Seriously, next time LP drops an album they shouldn't say anything about it. Every time it builds up this crazy hype train and almost everyone is let down with the first thing that comes out. When LP says their next album has a harder, "in your face" sound, people expect HT part 2 (this happens with every new LP album) When LP says their next album focusses on lyrics, everyone expects top notch lyrics that even the greatest poets couldn't write. Every album cycle people are disappointed because Mike said something about the album in an interview and they expect a whole album to be like that description. Normally I actually don't really have that much expectations, because I know they will suprise in whatever way. This time around, they basically keep putting the focus on these deep personal conversations that led to creation of the album in the promo appearences. But they don't really talk about why they bring in certain songwriters and that is what makes things questionable for me. I mean Heavy is exactly what you can expect from a Justin Tranter song, but did they hire the guy? did they know him before and got with him for just a friendly favor? Because I can't connect the dots as to why they got the hottest popsongwriter to help them with these personal conversations. I don't expect some deep poems to be their lyrics, but it is basically the opposite to go to the other side and basically hire the songwriter that is used by recordlabels for their popacts to get a hit. I actually like Heavy, but I can't deny for myself that it feels a bit calculated. And then we have Mike who comes around and just simply says Good Goodbye is inspired by basketball, which is fine, but I wouldn't mind if they would be a little more open about the creation of the album or would indeed stay quiet fr a cycle and let the music speak without anyone knowing what to expect. There will always be people dissapointing and going into that weird 'I need a new HT' phase. But it wouldn't have hurted would the interviews quotes been 'We wrote a big part of the album with personal conversations in mind, but there are also some songs we wrote with other things in mind, refering to the basketball for example' I mean it is a big difference between writing a song with a friend dying in mind and turning around and talking about a song inspired by basketball. I mean Good Goodbye may be the odd song on the album and actually dont even fit with the concept of the rest of the tracks, but it makes it a bit confusing after the promo cycle so far. I am excited to hear the rest of the album, including Good Goodbye though Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/12670-linkin-park-debuts-good-goodbye-lyrics/page/3/#findComment-273331 Share on other sites More sharing options...
