@dovanian He never stole it and honestly, he's a rather good rapper, one of the few mainstream ones with actual talent. Lupe hates his song which sampled Float on, saying the record company forced him to do it.
float on is better then the show goes on cuz lupe fiasco diddnt give any credit to modest mouse just like ice ice baby and under pressure thumbs up if u agree
Ok Lupe Fiasco used this song in his chorus. It doesn't matter. His song was ok and got annoying after a while. This song, is incredibly catchy and one of my favorites. And if you didn't notice, they're not different versions. Lupe sampled the song. And if you didn't notice, his song is titled "Show Goes On" and why, look at that, this is called "Float On"
So if you like Lupe's song (that is NOT a "different version) than why don't you go ahead and listen to it and not comment. You sound stupid.
Lupe is an amazing rapper, with lyrics on levels of depth most of you that disregard him couldn't begin to comprehend. The fact that he's a positive thinking African-American who wants to move his race forward goes further to counter any statements of his being pop, listen to the whole of his library, the uses of English are stretched and pushed to their limits.
@Compton3clipsed It's more the fact that Lupe's recent album was dumbed down by his label and wasn't a good representation of what Lupe represents as an artist. Even "The Show Goes On" was a good four tiers lower than what Lupe usually puts out/is capable of putting out.
And Modest Mouse's song? One of the ten most memorable tracks from the 2000's.
@uselessidguy331 - I'm aware, I was part of the manifesto, the fans who helped the album get released at all so he could be released from the contract to his label, we knew it wasn't what he was best at, but now people are paying attention to him, then he can release his good shit again and have people understanding once again in the masses what real hip-hop is.
This song came on at my family barbecue and everyone was like "uggh turn that crap off!" but I actually liked it so Iooked it up and found this vid. I honestly don't get why my family hates this song :/ it's awesome
@halfDolphiNhafDragon You are obviously the only person in your family with any semblance of musical taste. Let me guess, they all sang along with "Free Bird" and "Highway to Hell" right? UGH!!!
At the begging is anyone else reminded of that old commercial about college degrees online where the girl is singing "get connected for free with education connection"
man over here by where i live ppl think they are the biggest modest mouse fans just cuz they heard this song on tht one comercial. but when i ask em about any of their other songs they have no clue what im talking bout. ugh.
Even though I was tricked into moving. Even though I was lied to by the people I thought were closest to me. Even though everything I love is on the otherside of the country...
This song boosts my spirit for about 3 minutes and 35 seconds
@rj5220 Word... I knew about this song long before Lupe decided to use Modest Mouse's "Float on" melodies in his newest song's chorus. I don't think I am the bestest (yes I know "bestest" ISN'T a word LOL) singer, but this is one of those songs where I am able to achieve my best vocalist skills. Idk the song just makes me give that extra "Uhmph!".
My life has been terrible for about a year ever since my parents divorced, things got messy, we had to move, had financial problems, my mum got really depressed, etc.
I've had this song as my alarm tone for a year. Every morning I wake up to this song. It lifts me up, and gets me through the day, every day. I think no matter what happens in life, you just have to get through it, and be optimistic... because in the end we all just float on.
this video was next to a video that i was watching about two of my missing classmates that i knew quite well. I've heard it before, but it speaks to me differntly now.
