KANYE’S NEW SINGLE: FLASHING LIGHTS

Friday, November 2, 2007

♫ 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!

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.

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

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.

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…….

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…

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.

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?

Kanye West is indeed a lyrical and musical genius and in spite of his public outbursts he has the talent to back it up. That he knows which is why it amazes me how easily he was able to come back on top, again. Not that he EVER fell off In the first place, but he really gives you a reason to continue to be an advocate of rap music, let alone modern music all together. I can definitely appreciate an artist; not many people can call them selves artist. And for all of you who a like you don’t know, stop shit spewing and pick up a dictionary. As for this song the beat is a multiple of orgasmic beats, I got chills and goose bumps that how hard he spits. It’s coordinated, it makes sense, and there is substance even though the topic is universally talked about. What an intelligible guy! He is one of the few “rappers” (for popular saying sake) that can articulate rap music, and make it appealing to all. Love you Kanye, I bought the album!
