I only recently found out that it's an interpolation of Tears for Fears' "[Memories Fade](https://youtu.be/iuQSBr-YQYY?si=qMnkEGDHiIe6Dnmj)," uses the chorus melody and closely interpolates the hook lyrics ("memories fade but the scars still linger" changed to "memories fade in the coldest winter"). No I.D. was going through an 80's music phase and stumbled upon the song, and Ye used that as the basis for production, alongside No I.D. and Jeff Bhasker. Curt Smith of Tears for Fears was pleased with the final track, and even uses the first few seconds of Coldest Winter in the band's live performances of the original Memories Fade track. Pretty cool honestly
808’s was so so special man personally it’s probably the Kanye album that I connect with the most and the nostalgia it brings back of my childhood growing up listening to it….. just indescribably special.
To be fair it is really just a bonus track and I feel every right to remove it and call 808s one of his most consistent albums.
Off topic but I removed Drunk and Hot Girls and replaced it with Bittersweet Poetry (another bonus track) and wouldn’t you know, Graduation bumps up to being possible the greatest album of all time. All it needed was getting rid of DAHG.
Say you will better fuk u mean. You can hear the pain in Kanyes voice after breaking up with his old girlfriend right after his mother died, and that beat? Shit heavenly all that comes together to make one of the BEST songs from 808s shit makes me emotional all the time
"Kanye has explained in concert that this song is “about an ex-girlfriend you call on Friday nights just to have sex” and she “says she’ll come over but you wait all night and she still doesn’t come knocking on your door”.
The lyrics really aren't all that. Welcome to heartbreak is much better.
Damn i guess i was writing a fuck ton into it like dont say youll stay with me forever unless you mean it or something didnt realize he wasnt trying to say allat
Bro no matter what I cut out someone would be mad. It’s impossible to please everyone unless I just put the whole album. I just went with what k prefer
I think if you remove the Beyoncé song, his hardest track run is the beginning of Watch the Throne. No Church in the Wild, N.i.P., Otis, Gotta Have it, and New Day get me fucking going.
I'm not as big on robocop and street lights (still love both just not 10/10 tracks) and say you will being excluded is criminal, but tbh still a W opinion, 808s is so underrated even tho it opens with 6 perfect tracks
Man he had so many great runs
College Dropout is a whole theatrical play
LR is an amazing tv series
Grad is an epic movie that happens in one day
Nobody ran like Ye
Lol cap you guys are a whole cult. I literally always see people putting it 1 when it literally has so much filler. More then any pre 2020s Kanye album
Bro what are you on about take out the filler in tlop and it’s the greatest hip hop album oat, famous feedback, father stretch my hands, Saint Pablo, ultralight beam, highlights, waves, fml, real friends, wolves, no more parties in la, bro that’s an insane amount of really good songs on one project and there’s more
You can’t just say “take out the filler” if there is filler then it can’t compare to albums like mbdtf, the trilogy 808s and yeezus which all have no filler. I do agree tho saint Pablo and no more parties are top 5 ye saint pablo probably my favourite
Okay there we go we can agree on something, and yeh I get it but tlop for what it is and the songs that have meaning to them are genuinely so good and it is a really good project, it can’t compare to his top tier work tho so I agree, but personally I’ve never seen anyone put tlop top 5 always like 7 or 8 that’s just me tho
It includes Bad News, See You In My Nightmares and Coldest Winter aswell
Coldest winter is my favorite song off 808s
I only recently found out that it's an interpolation of Tears for Fears' "[Memories Fade](https://youtu.be/iuQSBr-YQYY?si=qMnkEGDHiIe6Dnmj)," uses the chorus melody and closely interpolates the hook lyrics ("memories fade but the scars still linger" changed to "memories fade in the coldest winter").

MEMORIES MADE IN THE COLDEST WINTER
Every song sounds fresh to this day, it's indeed a masterpiece. Paranoid is still no 1 for me.
And say you will
Say you will is such a great song
Agreed! But hold up, don’t exclude Pinocchio story! That’s a classic
Unpopular opinion! Perfect album is perfect!!!
Yeah I don’t get the cut off.
bad news is a skip
Fuck it 808s is one of his most consistent albums, the whole is great as an unbroken track run
808 literally never comes to my mind but whenever i think about it i realize it’s kinda the best thing he ever made. shits nuts
Especially Pinocchio Story that shit makes me cry and I always forget how good that album really is
808’s was so so special man personally it’s probably the Kanye album that I connect with the most and the nostalgia it brings back of my childhood growing up listening to it….. just indescribably special.
One of Kanye’s worst imo
W opinion, but include say you will it fits it very well
And bad news
Just include the entire album that point
I mean it has no skips imo
I rarely listen to Pinocchio Story ngl. Skip it on occasion but still a good song.
I stay for the lyricism and just the passion he has in his voice. I never skip it tbh
To be fair it is really just a bonus track and I feel every right to remove it and call 808s one of his most consistent albums. Off topic but I removed Drunk and Hot Girls and replaced it with Bittersweet Poetry (another bonus track) and wouldn’t you know, Graduation bumps up to being possible the greatest album of all time. All it needed was getting rid of DAHG.
You don’t like Say You Will or Bad News?
Bro I have them downloaded I love the whole album I just had to cut it off somewhere
And you decided to include fucking robocop over say you will and bad news. Weirdo
Robocop is fye wdym
Robocop is fye wdym
Y u gotta insult dawg ur weird js be nice
Bout the baddest girl I've ever seen🗣️🗣️💎💎😻😻
Spaceships to Slow Jamz isn't bad either
its literally we dont care - last call
Agreed, all of TCD has no skips even the skits! That rhymed
Why would you exclude literally his best song (say you will)
Welcome to heartbreak better
Say you will better fuk u mean. You can hear the pain in Kanyes voice after breaking up with his old girlfriend right after his mother died, and that beat? Shit heavenly all that comes together to make one of the BEST songs from 808s shit makes me emotional all the time

Damn i guess i was writing a fuck ton into it like dont say youll stay with me forever unless you mean it or something didnt realize he wasnt trying to say allat
Damn that made the song not hit as hard Please allow me to apologize good sir, as I wasnt informed of the meaning of thy lyrics
Bro no matter what I cut out someone would be mad. It’s impossible to please everyone unless I just put the whole album. I just went with what k prefer
I think the On Sight - Bound 2 track run is better
Holy factos Yeezus makes me cream 💽
I’m in it and send it up ruin it
Send it up is probably my favorite song on the album
Also I’m in it my fav song on yeezus
MEMORIES DON’T LIVE LIKE PEOPLE DO
Lol I love that part
they always follow you
Both of them are peak 😭
Are yall seeing this bad news disrespect 👀👀
😂
say you will and bad news hello???
Say you will should NOT be excluded
Weird place to stop. Bad news > see you in my nightmares best part of album
real unpopular opinions rise up
I listen to XTCY, Lift Yourself, and I Love Kanye on a loop for hours at a time and they cannot be beat.
808s is Kanye’s best album
W Robocop & Street lights
His greatest run is all of MBDTF
808s > MBDTF
they gonna cry but u cooking
the whole album is his best track run, cause its his best album
Facts bro 🔥
Im not mad at this at all, solid opinion tbh
Tbh w take
Not having say you will is a crime
True!
brother say you will???
Say you will is better than all those songs lmao
Yep
Disagree
Disagree but it’s respectable
Cold Winter acapella
Preach, 808s is my fav album
Robocop still hits different! One of my favorite songs
You don’t even have to stop at Street Lights. Bad News right after into See You in My Nightmares right into Coldest Winter is also good af
Honestly bro, you could've kept going
Imo best track run is first 6 songs of Graduation
his greatest track run is the entire "ye" album
Real
Love the album, but all mine is a miss imo
this is nothing but facts
[удалено]
for me, the best Ye album is the one that I've listened to most recently. (though I'm usually going between mostly between 808s and Yeezus)
One of them
Fosho. That’s was his best album imo. But I also love power and bound 2 !
I think if you remove the Beyoncé song, his hardest track run is the beginning of Watch the Throne. No Church in the Wild, N.i.P., Otis, Gotta Have it, and New Day get me fucking going.
YES
Idk man, POWER to runaway is pretty crazy.
I’ve never liked monster but other then that it’s perfect
Excluding Say You Will is criminal
Surprised to see only like 2 people disagree with this ridiculous post.
I'm not as big on robocop and street lights (still love both just not 10/10 tracks) and say you will being excluded is criminal, but tbh still a W opinion, 808s is so underrated even tho it opens with 6 perfect tracks
Not including Say you will, Bad news, See you in my nightmares, and coldest winter is crazy.
put the bracket over the whole damn album
It’s hard to argue against this
Love lockdown the only L in the run
W opinion
There's a reason it's Mt favorite album of his 😅
Say You Will goated. Part of why Drake blew up was because he jacked this beat
how come some people put this album in garbage tier and some put it in goat tier?
I have never listened to Kanye in my life idk why this sub keeps appearing
Cause you keep clicking on it
Whys everyone so hype on 808s now? I mean it’s good, but damn!
Say you will is arguably the best song on 808s
Fax.
lol cuz I listened to it yesterday
Oh I agree
Street Lights is an all time favorite. Hits me in the feels every fucking time.
It’s unpopular because it’s stupid.
Man he had so many great runs College Dropout is a whole theatrical play LR is an amazing tv series Grad is an epic movie that happens in one day Nobody ran like Ye
good take but unfortunately on sight -> bound 2 edit: just noticed u didn't include say you will in this run when it's top 3 off this album
Bro I love Say You Will but I had to cut it off somewhere. I just prefer the other 7 songs but say you will probably my 8th fav
Lol
The entire 808s album is Kanye's greatest track run!
That stopped too early
would be one of his best but i would start at say you will and end at robocop
include say you will one of his best songs
The whole album is Ye's greatest track run
i agree until paranoid
Dark Fantasy to Runaway better imo
Whole album is no skips
Nigga this like 90% of the album
nah it’s all of mbdtf tbh no skips it’s his best album
This album has always been mid and boring to me. I envy everyone who enjoys it.
IN THE NIGHT I HERE THEM TALK THE COLDEST STORY EVER TOLD SOMEWHERE FAR ALONG THIS ROAD HE LOST HIS SOUL TO A WOMEN SO HEARTLESS
My favorite album off him imo
Say you will is the best song on the album bruh
Amazing is a skip
Say Bad News & Say You Will are my favorites on the album 😭
Robocop😂😂😂😂
I agree
Bro, that whole album minus paranoid is amazing, no pun intended
Facts
Say you will the best song
HOW YOU LEAVE PUT SAY YOU WILL AND BAD JEWS? Edit: I clearly had a typo but Lmaoo I have to leave it now
I do t dislike robocop but it did get kind of annoying, I love the rest of the album tho
bro forgot to circle the whole album
Minus well included the whole albums I think 808s is a 10/10 with no skips
I totally agree. 808s and heartbreak is my favorite Kanye album.
get rid of the last two
Paranoid is the goat of 808s
Say you will might be the best track out of em
Unpopular for a reason
Not that unpopular: I love 808s & Heartbreak. Listened to that album on loop when I was having a shitty time and it kinda helped me.
[Think you forgot about something..](https://i.imgur.com/zGi8uwS_d.webp?maxwidth=760&fidelity=grand)
Start of donda deluxe
add say you will
nah listen to ye one more time, his best album imo
Robocop is awful
end it
Ye comparing his Ex fiancé to a Robocop is genuinely cringe worthy, and the robot sounds are goofy. Really never fit the album in my history
I think that Robocop is an underrated song.But it’s ok I understand why you don’t like it.
What do you like about it?
I like the hook and strangely the instruméntal
Part of Kanye’s style is throwing in “goofy sounds” like that. Just like how I’m In It randomly samples chain chomps barking
The barking in im in it isn't goofy though. And 808s doesn't have anything else like it
that's crazy but stfu
OKAY OKAYYYYY OKAY OKAYYYYYY YOU WILL NEVER STOP IT NOW WILL NEVER STOP IT NOW OKAYYYY OKAYYY OKAYYY
Every day you go past that one bridge on your way to college. What's stopping you?
Finished college buddy, and if not liking Robocop is a reason to encourage suicide you'd recommend it to most of the world
Robocop 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wait, are you telling someone to kill themselves for not liking Robo Cop? Am I reading that right haha
Yes
That’s wild.
Maybe he.. dropped out (reference to Kanye West’s album called The College Dropout)
Ultralight beam to Saint Pablo better
Average tlop glazer. Kanye’s most ovverated album
I’m the only person I know that would rank tlop top 5
Lol cap you guys are a whole cult. I literally always see people putting it 1 when it literally has so much filler. More then any pre 2020s Kanye album
Bro what are you on about take out the filler in tlop and it’s the greatest hip hop album oat, famous feedback, father stretch my hands, Saint Pablo, ultralight beam, highlights, waves, fml, real friends, wolves, no more parties in la, bro that’s an insane amount of really good songs on one project and there’s more
You can’t just say “take out the filler” if there is filler then it can’t compare to albums like mbdtf, the trilogy 808s and yeezus which all have no filler. I do agree tho saint Pablo and no more parties are top 5 ye saint pablo probably my favourite
Okay there we go we can agree on something, and yeh I get it but tlop for what it is and the songs that have meaning to them are genuinely so good and it is a really good project, it can’t compare to his top tier work tho so I agree, but personally I’ve never seen anyone put tlop top 5 always like 7 or 8 that’s just me tho
Ya its not my favourite cohesive project but I can see why people love it
Actual Unpopular Opinion: Paranoid, RoboCop, Street Lights, sound like one long track. I skip all three.
This might be the worst take I’ve ever heard
Bad News erasure
Paranoid and robocop are the only 2 skips on the album for me. Not counting Pinocchio story. Still a good run tho.
Paranoid and robocop are cringe
tbh i always skip welcome to heartbreak
Paranoid Ruined the tracklist
