♫ Kanye West feat. Dwele – Flashing Lights

Kanye West is releasing “Flashing Lights” as the 4th single from the highly successful and acclaimed album, Graduation. In our exclusive interview with Kanye West (check that out, if you haven’t), he reveals to us that “Flashing Lights” is one of his favorites from the album. He actually says it’s the “coolest song” on the album, which I don’t think many can deny. It’s something about it that gets everyone moving when it comes on, because I think people just love the way it feels when you heard those progressing chords at the beginning.

The party goes wild when the beat drops.

Make sure you go show Kanye some love on his MySpace, and if you haven’t already, snag yourself a copy of Graduation, in stores now!

    This is the best song on Ye’s album.

    Finally a nice review from Brian but didn’t you already review his album?

  8. have the album and favor this song greatly :) nice choice for a single.

    no hate or meaning it offensivly, but isnt it unfair to just make single release posts of artists that you guys like? i you could have just included this in a new music review or something. just a question, really dont mean it in a bad way.

  9. Love

    Yayyyy! I LOVEEEE this song!

  10. Dame

    This is my jam the song is hot.

  11. That “Good Life” single didn’t pop off like I thought it would. This is a good single but I like “I Wonder” better.

  12. crunkpoet

  20. Angelita

    I LOVE THIS SONG. I AGREE WITH KANYEEEZY THIS IS ONE OF THE HOTTEST TRACKS ON THE ALBUM.

    I’m not going to front my FAAAAV track is “Good Morning” featuring Chris Martin. If you really listen to the message behind this track you’ll love it as much as i do.

  21. Shekiah

    This is like my favorite song on the whole album……I LOVE THE FLASHING LIGHTS!!!!!!!!

  22. I think the cover is suppose to be that robot from that 1930′s movie. The name of it escapes my mind at the moment. Yall know the thing Beyonce came out as on her BET Awards performance. Yeah that…….

  23. txshawty

    I heard this song down here in Tx last week…it didn’t take but about the first two measures into the song for me to fall in love with it! I LOVE THIS SONG!

    And Kanye really won me over with the, ‘like Martin without Gina’ cuz MAN that’s my show and he really hit the depth of my SOUL lol cuz i remembered thinkin back when Martin used to try to act all hard like he ain’t need Gina…then acted a fool when she was eating dinner with LEON LONNY LOVE lol…hol up…this aint bout Martin…my bad lol…that A.D.D kinda kicks in from time to time, but um…I’m LOVING this joint, imma have to get up off my butt and cop ‘Ye’s cd…

  24. JoRo

    My favourite song on the album. Can’t wait to see what the video will be like…

  25. Trini

    I LOVE THIS ALBUM (PERIOD)

    There’s nothing more to say about this except Kenye is a genius.

    Tha Bricks

  26. Kuntry-N-Klassy

    I absolutely love this song. When I first heard it, that was it. It”s so melodic. You gotta love that orchestra. The video better be hott!!!!!!!!!

  27. Dont Argue With Me It's Just An Opinion

    My absolute favorite song on the album. This song is guaranteed to be a hit.

  28. CapCityChick

    Im diggin it!!!!….Gotta love Ye with his arrogant ass!!!!

  29. dg1234

    This song is hotttt!!!

  30. LOLA LAPEARL

    This song is actually my favorite on his album. . .this & Bittersweet.
    Kanye is doin the damn thing, now if he could only figure out how to stop his girl from lookin so fukkin dry all the time
    Can’t wait for the video!

  31. SHADOW

    big ups to Kanye on this track but it’s good to see neo-soul staple Dwele get his shine on too!!! That’s what it is…FLA baby! (oh yeah and GA too)

  32. @ #22, the song with Chris Martin is called “Homecoming”

  33. PleasureP-Lover

    I like this song, but I wish his next single would have been – I Wonder. Thats a hot song.

  34. 22, you mean Homecoming? Homecoming features Chris Martin.

    Flashing Lights is my shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit!!!!!!!

    Champion should be the next single. Ye should keep releasing singles til he can’t no more! This album is near flawless. He should take a page out of 50 and Beyonce’s book and make a video for every song on the album.

  35. Twocold@play

    Love the song, the cover looks like the Janelle Monae album Metropolis. Are they working together?

  36. Angelita

    Thanks for the correction #34 and #36 I was doing too many things at once. hahahh

  37. sex & candy

    this is my favorite song on the whole album. i cant explain it…i just love this song. i feel sexy when i hear it. lol

  38. Yes my favorite song on the album thank u Kanye!!!

  39. kanyeezy did it again hes a genious! This is the single of all singles… i think it was cause kanye read my post… there is no going wrong no way possible with this single.. and dwele gets his shine too. VERY smart move kayne. Just sold a few more thousand records with the move. Keep it up.

  40. paradise110

    I love this song when I first heard it. SO HOT!! But like someone else mentioned I will be afraid it would get played out like most singles.

    Also hot songs are Champion, I Wonder, Drunk and Hot Girls, Homecoming, Big Brother just a HOT album

  41. tia

    omg i am hella surprised …….there are mostly positive posts here…..wow i’m liking this energy lol

    but yeah i love this song…….it does get your head bobbing.

  42. Yazzy

    Don’t forget to show Eric Hudson some love too he porduced the track!!!

  43. i love love love this song…i cant believe its the new single,suprised it wasnt barry bonds…but i prefer flashing lights over that anyway…

  44. ms. complexity

    It is my FAVOURITE Kanye song…but it’s not one to dance to, IMO!!!

    I’m glad he released it.

    Brian, what were the other singles?

    I know of “Good Life” and “Stronger” – was “Can’t Tell Me Nothing” officially released?

  45. tae

    my fav song on the cd. luv it!

  46. Reccy

    This should have been the first single or at least second. I didn’t know Dwele sung the hook on this song. Love it!

  47. LAY LAY

    Yo. I heard this joint on the radio the other day and it is soooooo nice… I love the strings.

    Ey Kanye… You the man!!!!!!!

  48. Aries_Dyme

    I LOVE this song! It’s my fav on the album… “As I recall, I know U love to show off…but I never thought that u would take it this far… What do I know?..”… Ugh, sickness! I’m lovin it!

  49. JQ

    SWEET!!! THAT BOY Dwele ,DETROIT!!!!!!!

  50. "gangsta, gangsta" that's what we yellin!

  53. Tizzy-T WhistleQueen

    The chords at the beginning make it hot and different, then the rest of the song is like cake icing. Sick perfection.

  54. Kween215

    MY FAVORITE…..LOVE DWELE!!

  55. Jaida

    I’ve had this song on my Myspace page for a few weeks because I’ve been stuck on it since I got done wearing out “Big Brother”, “Everything I Am”, “I Wonder”, and “Champion”. LOL I’m glad this the next single! It’s gonna be ANOTHER good look for ‘Ye!

  56. WOW I THINK WE HAVE A FIRST. A POST WITH 57 COMMENTS AND NONE OF THEM ARE NEGATIVE.

    YEEZY WE HAVE A WINNER.
