Literally every album has a different aspect to it that makes each one amazing. 808s is probably the worst, if not yeezus, but they're both better than most other artist's best albums. and dude, i don't know what you listened to, but MBDTF is a masterpiece.
For those unaware this song only released as a “bonus” song for the Japanese version of this album when it came out so it wasn’t on streaming platforms in the us or anywhere else until it got downloaded and uploaded to RU-vid
@@0bb81 There is a law or something there that forces stores to sell albums always for a fixed price that's significantly more expensive than most other countries. So these extra bonus tracks are included to discourage Japanese buyers from importing the albums for cheaper elsewhere.
@@0bb81 Adding to Winners comment there wasnt just a Japanese bonus track, there was also a US bonus track (Cant Tell Me Nothing with Young Jeezy) and two UK bonus tracks (A-Trak remix and Andrew Dawson remix of Stronger) and an iTunes bonus track (Good Night)
I haven't heard this song in about 13 years and I still remembered the whole thing. I can picture where I was the first time it came through my headphones so vividly. There's something special about music that I'll never be able to put my finger on fully. I'm about to fuckin cry.
comments now are like no one: person in video: *time stamp* or they're like "who's watching in (current year)?" or the worst is when they have a line, a bunch of spaces so theres a read more, then an unfunny punchline, like (setup) (*punchline*)
Man something about these particular track, Ye's songs always hit me in the nostalgic feels but this track just reminds me of my old school and friends, that happy childhood, all sparkly filled with love and cartoons. Damn, sucks that I grow further away from those memories.
Same! College dropout, late registration and graduation released when I was just a kid. Times were much simpler and happier. These albums take me back to those times
Ive liked Johns work for years, and never been the biggest fan of hip hop, but always like this song. I agree, I wish they would have collaborated more.
People like you only follow what the media and the soulless businesses want you to think. Ye is right about the industry, the censors, everything. Pay attention for once.
@@commandergoliath6392 Kanye is literally sympathizing with Hitler and Nazis, as well as openly resenting Jewish people. Stop trying to be counter culture and take what he's saying for what it is: absurdity.
Are we not going to talk how catchy John Mayer's hook is? Mayer and Kanye has always been my favorite musicians. Both started with big ego, and over the time, they learn to become more humble and become a much greater musician. Both a virtuoso on their respective genres.
man this song is the first song that made me actually cry. My ex-stepdad had a playlist on his computer, he left it in our room and we would listen to his music all the time. he had some good ass choices. This, Big Brother, Seduction (Eminem), Beautiful (Eminem), Pimpin All Over the World (Ludacris), Juicy (Biggie), and then Drop the World and a few other songs. When I was 14, I got in trouble a lot so I didnt get to play a lot of video games. I spent most of the time reading and listening to music and when this song came on let me tell you I vibed. I vibed to another dimension. I would give anything to be 14, just starting high school again. There's so much shit I would have done differently. One of those things is saving that bastard's playlist to a flashdrive and putting in on my laptop. The other is finishing the Naruto manga and Maximum Ride series.

Good User MA.A.d Internet It's still pretty dark with the cheesy music. That's Kanye, man. He pulls the wackiest samples in songs but they work so damn well.
"Bittersweet Poetry" (feat. John Mayer) [John Mayer:] Bittersweet You're gonna be the death of me I don't want you, but I need you I love you and hate you at the very same time Bittersweet [Kanye West:] See, what I want so much should never hurt this bad Never did this before, that's what the virgin says We've been generally warned, that's what the surgeon says God, talk to me now, this is an emergency And she claims she only with me for the currency You cut me deep, bitch, cut me like surgery And I was too proud to admit that it was hurting me I'd never do that to you, at least purposely We breaking up again, we making up again But we don't love no more, I guess we fucking then Have you ever felt you ever want to kill her? And you mix them emotions with tequila And you mix that with a little bad advice On one of them bad nights, y'all have a bad fight And you talk about her family, her aunts and shit And she say, "Motherfucker, your momma's a bitch" You know, domestic drama and shit, all the attitude I'd never hit a girl, but I'll shake the shit out of you But I'mma be the bigger man, big pimpin' like Jigga man Oh, I guess I figure it's [John Mayer:] Bittersweet You're gonna be the death of me I don't want you, but I need you I love you, hate you at the very same time Bittersweet [Kanye West:] See, what I want so much should never hurt this bad Never did this before, that's what the virgin says We've been generally warned, that's what the surgeon says God, talk to me now, this is an emergency And my niggas said I shouldn't let it worry me I need to focus on the girls we getting currently But I been thinking and it got me back to sinking And this relationship, it even got me back to drinking Now this Hennessy, uh, it's gonna be the death of me And I always thought that you having my child was our destiny But I can't even vibe with you sexually 'Cause every time that I'd try, you would question me Saying, "You fucking them girls, disrespecting me You don't see how your lies is affecting me? You don't see how our life was supposed to be? And I never let a nigga get that close to me And you ain't cracked up to what you were supposed to be You always gone, you always be where them hoes will be" And this the first time she ever spilled her soul to me [John Mayer and Kanye West:] Bittersweet (I fucked up and I know it, G) You're gonna be the death of me (I guess it's bittersweet poetry) I don't want you, but I need you I love you and hate you at the very same time Bittersweet You're gonna be the death of me I don't want you, but I need you I love you and hate you at the very same time [Kanye West:] See, what I want so much should never hurt this bad Never did this before, that's what the virgin says We've been generally warned, that's what the surgeon says God, talk to me now, this is an emergency See, what I want so much should never hurt this bad Never did this before, that's what the virgin says We've been generally warned, that's what the surgeon says God, talk to me now, this is an emergency [John Mayer:] Bittersweet You're gonna be the death of me I don't want you, but I need you I love you and hate you at the very same time (Bittersweet You're gonna be the death of me I don't want you ...very same time)

Besides Good Morning, This will always be one of My All-Time Favorite Songs By Kanye. A Timeless Nostalgic Masterpiece. I'll never forget discovering this Song Thanks To My Mom back in 2008 when I was 4 years old. Which was also when I discovered & fell in love with Kanye's Music.
Lmao, I have his first album. Artists evolve man, it's always going to happen and it's never going to stop. Kanye is still legendary, still a genius, and still an amazing artist. My Beautiful Twisted Dark Fantasy is the greatest hip hop album in history. Give it a listen.
Just watched the “jeen-yuhs” doc and noticed how Kanye was singing this during the 2006 Grammy’s after party interview with Coodie when he was drunk af off the henny. Anybody else catch that?
@@sean-nk3wp 3 of the greatest songs of the year is featured on Donda (hurricane,24,moon). Great production, amazing features but Ye needs a ghostwriter. He needs to get back cool with madlib and GLC. Overall pretty good album but lacks in replay value.
15 years later and teenager me is still bumping his head and singing along. Say what you want about Kanye but his music was different and always hit, especially Graduation and MBDTF
@@bigz8475 Interesting... I think I said that because it was basically the soundtrack for a certain period of my life. But I've listened to a lot more hip hop since then so the population has gotten bigger. As far as Kanye, as I've gotten older I appreciate College Dropout a lot more than I used to
@@rbntlly right, this was a japan exclusive, but lets hope it gets on the us version too, also for some reason spotify says graduation came out in 2010 since good night has been added
late registration, college dropout, and graduation are by far his best. 808's and MBTWF were still good albums for sure, but his old soul/rap was top notch
Aidan Di Palma I THOUGHT THE SAME. until I went to see the tour. that album is different then all the bullshit on the radio. so at first glance its hard to appreciate it. its ahead of its time...production wise. beats are not even close to anything u hear on the radio. its a good thing, hip hop is getting bland sidebar: I went to see yeezus in Brooklyn, MSG, AND PRUDENTIAL CENTER IN NEWARK! that's how good the show was. which made me love the album
This is great. I had a gf who I did not strike because I refused to go to jail. This song almost recounts that relationship. FAMILY COURT barred her from my apartment. I don't want her and learned over time I didn't need her. Bittersweet is my saliva, however. KANYE STAY STRONG.
I'm a huge Kanye fan but how did I miss this song? Never heard of it or even the title. This is so bittersweet for me. Man Kanye is the best of all time
G-man Einstein Einstein me too man. It’s a Japanese exclusive bonus track. “Goodnight” is the other bonus track on Graduation. I also just discovered a UK Exclusive bonus song on Late Registration called “We Can Make It Better”. Definitely worth a listen
I think the most brilliant thing about this song and its composition is how PERFECTLY the musical instruments, melody & harmony & so on encapsulate a "bittersweet" feeling
