I was so bummed out when I heard the CD version after this version initially leaked. Adding more violin/ another really pointless verse does not equal better song.
although i love the album version i remember hearing this when it leaked and remember that i much prefer this version. sounds much better without all the strings, the end is still good though but it doesn't feel overdone whereas the studio one feels too busy with everything going on at once. you can really appreciate the brilliant harmonies in this one much better. love it
@9toStryfe There are strings in the chorus. It's in the sample and you can hear the 4 notes played on the strings in the final version in this version's chorus too.
I still don't get the joke of Kanye's "spoiled L.A. girl" thing. Yeah, the end was totally unnecessary and seemed disjointed from the rest. And as good as this song was, what was Kanye thinking, adding the strings layer over the main verses too? Doesn't sound too robotic after that. This version has even replaced the album version in my collection.

simplicity sometimes shines thru better than mere chaos. theres way to much going on in this version. u cant hear the beauty of the violins from the original.
there's more going on in the album version, The beat changes more and it has more sections, only here the hi hats are louder and have no distortion, that's why you can hear them better. The kick also has some distortion in the original, which it doesn't have here.
you got that switched up bra, the album one has too much violin shit going on in it. i downloaded this one and deleted the album one and switched the two.
I like both versions. This one sounds more high tech, which is more appropriate to the song title, while the other version has that beautiful symphonic appeal. I switch back and forth depending on how I'm feeling.
how is this the better version? there way to much goin on the background, gives it a half time feel then a double time feel, i dont like it, doesnt sound right. live the song tho, got it as a ringtone =]
there's three versions to this. one version he's like screaming lol I remember when I heard that one I was like O_o
I love the album version, but something about the beat in this one is a lot more appealing to me. there's a sample he has bumping throughout the whole song in this version, whereas the album version it only comes up in the chorus.
DO NOT READ! A little over 20years ago a 12 year old boy was playing with his basketball in the street on Acto Street, NJ. Some teenagers who were drag racing on motorcycles weren't paying attention and ran him over and killed him. it is said that if you go on Acto Street, turn off your car, and blink your headlights 3 times you will see the figure of him bouncing the ball. Now that you have read this you must post this on 4 other messages in the next 10min, or you will die in an auto accident
ON VH1 STORYTELLERS.... kanye talked about how the ending 'You spoiled little LA girl" was longer than what was on the album. anyone know where the full version can be found/
hmm, the cd version has ''viva la vida'' type string on but this version sounds more like ''stronger'' so in my view i reckon the cd version is more defined
Yesh Im Not Harsh About Criticism.. Buhh I Just Personaly Think That The Cd Version Is Better . This One Is Great `02 .. && Guud Job For Puttin It Uhpp !
A few years ago, two parents went out for dinner. A few hours later, the babysitter was calling to ask if she could cover up the clown statue in the kids' room, the father said,"Take the kids and get out of the house. We'll call the police, we don't have a clown statue." The "clown statue" is really a killer that escaped from jail. If you don't post this letter on to 10 videos tonight, the clown will be in your bed at 3:00 am with a chainsaw in his hand;sorry i didnt want that happening to me

the 'violin' version doesnt sound right...... too repetitive.... and you loose the entire "robo" effect that is on the leaked track.
AND....... the violins interfere with the melody he is singing. What was the best track on the "leaked" 808's became the worst on the "released" 808's
