Well Graduation has grown on me after several more listens. Homecoming is now my favorite on the album although I heard the lyrics when College Dropout dropped. I still wish he added a new verse to it or something but the beat and Chris Martin make up for that. I guess now I'll download Curtis just to see how bad it is.
Hal·la·day, n. 1. every fifth day in Philadelphia. 2. a day of rest for the bullpen. 3. innings eater. 4. doc. 5. ace.
Flashing Lights has become my favorite song after more listens. Interesting fact, Kanye originally made The Glory intending to use it as the lead single for Common's cd, but he liked it so much he decided to put it on Graduation instead.
Well after a few unimpeded listens this album definitely gets two ...Homecoming is probably my favorite song now...there's a couple weak moments (big brother) but most of it is solid. I even like Drunk and Hot Girls. The song is good too
Funny video of Kanye and Rainn Wilson (Dwight from The Office) playing Don't Forget the Lyrics from last nights Emmy's (the song they both have to perform is 'Stronger').

Now now, I never said 50's would be better...or even any good...I was only speaking for the what the rest of America would buy and not my personal preference...
