Well what do I think is the G.O.A.T (Greatest of all time)?
From all genres of music and all the different artist, my favorite song of all time is "All of the Lights" by Kanye West featuring Rihanna and Kid Cudi. If you have not heard of this song, i have attached the link for it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HAfFfqiYLp0 (This is video is owned by KanyeWestVEVO via youtube)
What makes someone like a song so much? I think this question can be interpreted a million different ways from a million different people.
First, Kanye to me is one of the greats of hip hop music. To have him create a collaboration with Rihanna and Kid Cudi is simply genius to me. The instrumentals at the very start the song off really nice and slow and then Kanye just takes off in his first verse. I think a great song should make the listener feel good. "All of the Lights" can put me in in the best whether its in the car, shower, room or walking to class. The song should not make the listener get sick of it. I think i've played this song over 3000+ times on my iPod. I think a good song should be catchy. If the song can get you singing it then it truly is a good song.
The word good is subjective. So i know everyone will have their own characteristics of what makes a good song. I guess some characteristics can like the significances of the song, effects, lyrics and artist.
I think this song truly became my favorite when I was blasting this song from my Vegas hotel room on the 33rd floor. Watching all the lights of Vegas and traffic below just made this song suitable. This song is officially the Vegas pre-gaming song. When you are in Vegas next time, please try to listen to this song as your getting ready to have a good night. I promise you, it suits the occasion.
I look forward to hearing some of your favorite songs and why.
