I wanted to like this sooo bad because it's BoC, but this chick just committed blasphemy. I'm sure Solange is a great artist if you dig her niche, but this is just...no. Like mixing aged Scotch with Similac. Just, NO.
@GeorgeMillerAtkinson Id be glad to explain since you seem lost.. Solange (the vocals on this AWESOME song) Has a very diverse taste in music (unlike many youtube commenters *wink wink*) Sooooo she decided to write HER own heart felt lyrics to an already great song. Thats what GOOD artists do when they hear music that speaks to them... They do this. If the "bullshit"you speak of is the song not being longer.. I feel you..
This track proves that although Boards of Canada are excellent by themselves, they have the ideas and innovation to someday produce an envelope-pushing album or song by the next singer/rapper to come across them. I was most definitely sold on that idea, when I heard how Solange took on "Slow This Bird Down". This goes for most of the electronic musicians/ producers I have heard in my lifetime.
@interpolluter29 Boards have probably been approached HUNDREDS of times to produce the type of album you are talking about. Based on interviews I have read, I don't believe BoC has any desire to do it.
PPL TALKIN ABOUT BEYONCE IS IRRELEVANT.....THIS IS ABOUT SOLANGE N HER GREAT CRAFT SHE HAS CREATED.....SO LETS STOP DOWNING HER SISTER, WHOM SHE LOVES N STATE OPINIONS ON HER SONG...NOT BEY #IGOTU SOLANGE :-)
I never directed the comment to you now did I? Haha, you must feel some type of way. Clearly YOU'RE intimidated if you feel so strongly about my comment. The only ignorance being portrayed is coming from your direction buddy. Chill out Stan :)
@SimplyyMichaell Feel so strongly about your comment ... umm *blank stare* This my channel & you realize I get to direct my attention to anyone who chooses to voice an opinion on my video right? If your coming with a positive opinion, fine, but if you feel the need to start ignorantly bringing Beyonce up to start a feud when it is very ignorant, childish & unnecessary, you wiil be addressed.
@robeyluv Lol boo, I didn't start a feud. OBVIOUSLY the feud has been started way before I commented on this video. I'm just elaborating and putting out the CLEAR PICTURE. That you're intimidated and just simply MAD about the comments you're receiving! Get over it :*
@SimplyyMichaell Do you hear yourself? I'm a Beyonce stan & I'm intimidated by SOLANGE? Chile. Beyonce gets hate left & right because she's the only woman you can compare to M.J's level. I am not surprised. Instead of saying your happy for both women, you have to dog one out, which shows nothing but pure jealousy. I love them both & will support their music w/out having to be spiteful nor hateful for what I do not have. If you dont have nothing good to say, then don't say it at all.
@robeyluv Never did I say I didn't love Beyonce. I love her too! But I thought you were trying to say that Beyonce is better than Solange. Because either of them are better than the other. They are equally different in their own way.
i dont think you can rlly compare beyonce & solange because they do two totally different types of music. if they did the same thing then yu can say whos "better".
@ScootieBootie15 But this is exactly what I am saying. There is no comparing the 2. Solange doesn't seem as passionate about her voice like Beyonce does, even though they both are blessed with the talent. Solange is buy DJ'ing, she's not worrying about being on stage. Let them be.
I think Solange has a real original sound. Beyonce is mainstream for real. I prefer Solange because her music is based in not how the masses will receive it, but on the artistry, melody, and musicality. Especially, if you consider the crap than Beyonce threw at us with Girls Run the World.
@SimplyyMichaell How is Solange intimidating the Beyonce stans, when I'm a Beyonce stan & I uploaded it myself? Please stop the unnecessary ignorance.
I can't wait for Solange to drop her 2011 album. She's totally unique and in her OWN lane. It's so refreshing to hear artists who do something different.
@lFrenzied spot on mate. this track doesn't need some/any [bogus] lyric. some people will never learn. this track is perfect, putting ANY vocals to it is just plainly stuuuuuupid.
Guys I didn't write these lyrics, I got them off of a website & trust me I know they're wring. Someone message me the right lyrics and I'll change them.
@robeyluv Maybe because Beyonce is promoted more and people put her on a pedestal. There are a good amount of artists who have Grammy's, but aren't that great. Tbh Beyonce gets some of her awards simply because she is Beyonce and people like her.
@CraziiSexyKidd I wish you guys would stop! STOP COMPARING THESE TWO! & Don't you dare not give Beyonce credit for the hard working woman she is. You don't just get to the top by having cute look & an exotic name, you have to work hard to get those awards & over 200 achievements. They are both talented &beautiful women who are in 2 different leagues! Solange loves Beyonce & Beyonce loves Solange. END OF STORY.
@CraziiSexyKidd Well being that her album has went #1 in 12 different countries in less than 24 hours, I'm pretty sure 90% of the world doesn't agree. Thank you.
@robeyluv lol cause the grammy's is about popularity not talent, who sells the most, not who actually makes quality music. Not to say Beyonce isn't talented but she makes way more commercial, mainstream, and all in all more digesteable music for the masses which is what the Grammy's recognizes 99% of the time.
@solidaritygirl Beyonce has over 200 awards including "Artists of the Millennium". The grammy's are just one set of her accomplishments. Not to say Solange isnt talented, because thts why I uploaded this song in the first place, but her & Beyonce isn't a comparison. Beyonce is way more talented in the entertainment field..
@robeyluv Better to say Beyonce isn't more talented, she's just been in the game longer and has more appeal to the mainstream. Beyonce usually gets these awards, simply for the fact that she's Beyonce. People tend to put her on a pedestal, which is why she's so popular.
@robeyluv lol cause the grammy's is about popularity not talent, who sells the most, not who actually makes quality music.
