@@ghxztpxppglv33 they don't have the same quality of instrumentals as the rest of the album and you can't tell me you enjoy listening to the second half of Futura Free. Still a 9/10 for me
"you can't tell me you enjoy listening to the second half of Futura Free" the outro is so emotional nostalgic and beautiful imo and that backing track melody is ethereal and also "In Franks song Futura Free, at the end when Mikey Alfred asks “How far is a light year?” Well... A light year is the distance light travels in a year, equivalent to ~9.4×1012 km. The song is 9.4 minutes (9:24) long."@@justaguywithhisgrasseson5522
@@Alan-rw3ezor maybe the dude is still grieving from his brothers death and is probably tired of yall pressuring him into making music hope this helps!!
White Ferrari is the Most outstanding, unique, emotional and yet calming piece of art Frank Ocean has Ever Released. It just seems like a whole flashback on life and is simply amazing.
@@belovedlilabru it’s jus a good song 😭 it doesn’t have to be underrated to be good. acting like nights and pink + white aren’t way more popular. what u want his fav to be good guy? literally shut the fuck up
Siegfried is an underrated song of Blonde, the reference to singer songwriter legend Elliott Smith, the thick sad atmosphere, Rostram’s guitar and the lyrics are just a pure and unfiltered bipolar downer.
I was scrolling through the comment and wondering when someone would mention seigfried. I had to scroll way down to see your comment fam. Siegfried is the best track for me mahn
literally, as much as I’ve listened to this album (my favorite album oat), there is not a song to me that hits more than Seigfried. It’s truly a gracefully beautiful song, more so criminally underrated.
@@enjoi9970 i like the track and esp the choatic intro transition but overall probably one of the weaker tracks yeah Blonde is still one of the best and iconic rnb albums tho
i disagree lmao. everyone has their flaws and that's a fact. just because it's "one of the tightest albums" doesn't mean it's completely perfect. "worst song" doesn't always mean that the whole album is bad, or that the song itself is bad. it just means it doesn't hit the same as the other ones.
@@enjoi9970i actually rly like pretty sweet. even tho it’s def one of the weakest tracks. jus goes to show how good the album is. especially when it seems everyone has a completely different favorite song. skyline to is also underrated af
I’m not much of a music junkie, but ironically Close To You was my favourite song off the album. I love the original track + Stevie’s version. I thought Frank’s version captured the emptiness and confusion w/ missing someone who’s not ‘close to you’ anymore really well. Well enough to get me through my break up 😂 The Brad Pitt + Coachella performance has also solidified itself as a goated moment. Can’t help but love me some classics songs remixed by Frank Ocean
@@neil5694pretty sweet definitely stands out... as the worst song on the album. that beginning intro is just tough to listen to even if the pay off at the end is kinda beautiful.
Agreed. The intro is like a remake of the Beatles song yesterday with all the chaos and discomfort. But once the smoke settles the song is super soothing even ending with that choir of kids at the end. “Sweet like the suckaaaa” “pretty swee-eee-eeeet”
For me Solo (reprise) and Skyline to are the most underrated tracks on the album. Andre goes absolutely mad and the context of him originally going on completely different beat just to hear the album version with James Blakes piano the first time he listened to it just adds to it. And skyline to is truly one of the most relaxing, soothing pieces of music in history
But Close to You features a sample from Close to You/Never Can Say Goodbye by Stevie Wonder (one of the most talented musicians to ever live) :( . But to each there own. I’ve heard people say the worst song is Pretty Sweet, or Solo(reprise), or even Skyline To. Personally I don’t think there is a bad track on this album. I’ve listened to this album ever since I was 16 years old and had a different play through each year. I can’t lie and say that every song sounds “commercial” because you can’t compare Nights or Self Control to Pretty Sweet or Facebook Story. It’s an album that you learn to appreciate with every track having its own unique visuals and storyline. Not even kidding I have a friend that whole heartily believes Ivy is the best track and other that believes it’s Nights and they go at it all the time. No disrespect tho cause you are just sharing your opinion. Also, my favorite track is too Self Control because it’s the only song on the album that made me ball my eyes out.
literally what i was looking for, it’s my favorite song on the album because i can relate to it so much and it makes me cry every time i hear the intro 😭 not literally tho
Every time i listen to Close to You, i just imagine the album cover. Jumping in the shower, thr water starts hitting you, you take a moment to reflect, end up reminiscing on stuff.
Close to you is not the worst. That shit will put me in tears every time. The sample, his lyrics, the way the beat makes his voice sound nervous and vulnerable. Masterpiece
My opinion: Best song - Nights Most beautiful - Ivy My least favourite - Good Guy 1 - Nights 2 - Seigfried 3 - White Ferrari 4 - Ivy 5 - Self Control 6 - Pink + White 7 - Nikes 8 - Futura Free 9 - Godspeed 10 - Skyline To 11 - Solo 12 - Close to You 13 - Solo (Reprise) 14 - Pretty Sweet 15 - Be Yourself 16 - Facebook Story 17 - Good Guy show me your thoughts pleeease
bro skyline to is so good...especially the middle part where the guitar and the synths come together...it reminds me of summer.. its almost like self control
