What are you listening to? (Guilty Pleasure Edition)

[Julius_Van_Der_Beak]

I'm always disappointed that listening to this song doesn't automatically allow me to be awesome at doing things. Apparently, practice is actually involved, and not just a rocking soundtrack. Sports movies lied to me. #$%^ you Emilio.

This came on over the P.A system as I was standing in line at Krogers. Somehow I magically knew every word to this song and sung it aloud as they asked for a price check mini corndogs.

[Forever]

[Chorus]
Shit could get menacin', frightenin', find help
Sometimes I scare myself, myself
Shit could get menacin', frightenin', find help
Sometimes I scare myself, myself

[Verse 1]
Tweakin', tweakin' off that 2C-B, huh
Is he gon' make it? TBD, huh
Thought I was gon' run, DMC, huh
I done died and lived again on DMT, huh
See, this a type of high that won't come down
This the type of high that get you gunned down
Yeezy, Yeezy trollin' OD, huh
Turn TMZ to Smack DVD, huh
Russell Simmons wanna pray for me too
I'ma pray for him 'cause he got #MeToo'd
Thinkin' what if that happened to me too
Then I'm on E! News

[Chorus]
Shit could get menacin', frightenin', find help
Sometimes I scare myself, myself
Shit could get menacin', frightenin', find help
Sometimes I scare myself, myself

​

[Verse 2]
Ayy, hospital band a hundred bands, fuck a watch
Hundred grand'll make your best friends turn to opps
I hear y'all bringin' my name up a lot
Guess I just turned the clout game up a notch
See, y'all really shocked, but I'm really not
You know how many girls I took to the titty shop?
If she get the ass with it, that's a 50 pop
I still bring the bad bitches in the city out
Uh, just a different type of leader
We could be in North Korea, I could smoke with Wiz Khalifa, uh
Told my wife I've never seen her
After I hit it, bye Felicia, that's the way that I'ma leave it up

[Chorus]
Shit could get menacin', frightenin', find help
See, this is why all the bitches fuck with Ye
Fuck what they talk about
Sometimes I scare myself, myself
They take me on meds, off meds, ask yourself
Shit could get menacin', frightenin', find help
Ask your homegirl right now, "Look, you had a shot at Ye?"
Sometimes I scare myself, myself
You drop everything

[Verse 3]
Tweakin', tweakin' off that 2C-B, huh
This is why your bitches fuck with me, huh
Smash, she gon' end up on TV, huh
Last thing that you ever wanna see, huh
I can feel the spirits all around me
I think Prince and Mike was tryna warn me
They know I got demons all on me
Devil been tryna make an army
They been strategizin' to harm me
They don't know they dealin' with a zombie
Niggas been tryna test my Gandhi
Just because I'm dressed like Abercrombie

​

[Outro]
You see? You see?
That's what I'm talkin' 'bout
That's why I fuck with Ye
See, that's my third person
That's my bipolar shit, nigga, what?
That's my superpower, nigga, ain't no disability
I'm a superhero! I'm a superhero!
Agghhhh!

 

[cascadeco]

Yes, I am listening to this.

It is 'guilty' because I remember when it first came out, I didn't really like it, I found it overly sentimental and dramatic and too gushy/cheesy/etc etc etc

But now I like it? haha.

 

[cascadeco]

Such a classic!!! Ah, I needed this laugh today, I hadn't ever seen the video, but a friend and I used to giggle to this song and others from that album in the car.

The official late nineties/early two-thousands romantic comedy movie intro song that plays while showing aerial views of a major US city before zooming in to introduce you to the female lead character.

 

[Luminous]

Don't forget this one for that movie...

 

[Stigmata]

Don't forget this one for that movie...

Yes!!!

 

[Hiraeth]

^This. I have a thing for cheesy '70s/'80s music videos where the lead singer is eye fucking the camera.

[Stigmata]

How did we possibly make it to twenty-two pages without anyone posting this one? I'm so ashamed of everyone, but mostly ashamed on myself for not thinking of this one.

 

[Stigmata]

I think this is one of those songs that I've heard over-and-over, and my psyche eventually saw the futility in resistance and figured falling in line would follow the path of least resistance.

[The Cat]

Ooh was that a musical cue?

 

[Stigmata]

I'm temped to see if I could pull off the condom eye-patch on casual friday. You think you're cool -- You'll never be condom eye-patch, cool.
