kanye west homecoming original version

[hotjack]

This version is so much better and so much heartfelt.

[yrandyc11]

@baygame1 the background male hook is John Legend and the sample is none other than Patti Labelle and the Bluebells " You'll Never Walk Alone" Sweethearts of the Apollo- Newtown 1963

[stiz0670]

one of the best songs/collaborations i have ever heard 

[eeuwke0]

Not home coming

[DoYouKnowJimmy]

@eeuwke0 ummmm yes this is the original....i had this song before the album dropped.....they fuckin ruined it

[oldskoollistener]

I honestly preferred this one the beat is sooooooooooooo amazing and full of so much soul, it was a lot of love in this one. The one with Chris Martin was overused and there was no passion in that one as much in this one. I was so happy knowing that THIS song was going to be on the graduation BUT no I was disappointed and heartbroken when I heard that Chris Martin one. This song was more amazing because I am a Chicagoan native

[illwillradio]

dis shit make u wanna move to chicago lowkey...i fuckin luv dis shit..im 4rm miami..but had a blast up n da chi!! southside 79th wuzzzzup G!!

[seli221]

The song name isn't Homecoming it's just Home... Thou, still better then the original

[amblors]

@seli221 its titled "Coming Home"

[NSDilly]

@seli221 This is the original stupid.

[IrisChocomuffin]

<3 soo much better this one... im in fuckin love with this song!

[Umarakalilwest]

Kanye is coming back home once again..,

[Dolphan1992]

Damn this is some nostalgia shit

[BunchOfViews]

the graduation version is like a goin out version while this is a sit back and chill version

[calockdown]

I like this song, ill be comin home

[BayGame1]

Does anybody know what the sample is called?

[moskalus]

awesome beaT!

[R0b1zzle137]

can someone give me the link to this instrumental?

[dopetydopedope]

I want the old Kanye back. He had so much soul and was a breath of fresh air.

[erichizz09]

@dopetydopedope maybe you should listen to watch the throne

[makesfunofyou]

@dopetydopedope Can't stay the same forever son. Also implying MBDTF & 808's aren't his best.

[LeeTheShogun]

@makesfunofyou MBDTF is a masterpiece! Also 808's and heartbreak is an epic album just because its kanyes album.. its always kanye but always another kanye but in every album you feel his spirit!

[grombarlow]

This song is soo sick

[MrMizelle56]

This and homecoming are two different songs

[LeWiS2K9SMUDGEMOONED]

@MrMizelle56 definately  didnt listen to lyrics

[khmerprideworldwide]

such a sick beat yo



[zimboy08]

@PDJ9109 this version was cut in favour of the version with Chris Martin. Both amazing

[liljonandfriends]

37 people never came home

[SHANNONGRIERMUSIC]

THE BEST VERSION!!! HANDS DOWN...THERE IS SO MUCH SOUL IN THIS ONE

[TheSBM1111]

Everyone on here seems to lean towards one version or the other, but I heard the Chris Martin version first and I loved it! After hearing this, my opinion didn't change. They are both great songs with their own great feeling. Its amazing how much of a difference there is between the two but they are still both fantastic

[DarkSaber22]

@TheSBM1111 same, I with you. The version with Chris Martin is still one of my favorite Kanye tracks ever

[BrandonAtrocityTv]

is this john legend?

[xliseth]

love it so much

[jennaLyn7]

chi town all day.

[7H4754F3C2ACK4]

SO MUCH SOUL!

[JetsMets96]

anyone gotta dl link?

[Dboy316]

yea... he shouldve put this one out instead of that commercial version wit the white dude...this one is more soulful to me....ol boy on the vocals killed that hook!

[Ballin1593]

This song was MEANT to sound like this. The album version doesn't do it for me, it loses all the emotion that this song had.

[Sneakermanpan]

This was my shit... When i heard the new'er version I was mad as HELL lol

[Realishymn]

@Sneakermanpan Riiiiiight? I was like noooooooo

[derek67001]

Instant classic. He's doing his part...passing it down. The kids gotta learn bout good joints

[limitbreaking]

Holy SHIT, this is my first time coming across this version. I love it.

[GroovyChick718]

This is the BEST version the other one SUUUUUCKKKKSS

[samlittle94]

@GroovyChick718 hater, the other version is awsome.

[cravethecaptain]

@samlittle94 the other version with Chris Martin is some commercial garbage! Are you black?Just curious...

[samlittle94]

@cravethecaptain commercial garbage? i love the chris martin versionand this version. i have my opinions, you have yours. Who cares if its commercial or underground, its all music and as long as its from the soul and true expression, it doesnt matter if its "mainstream" or "commercial".

[Gutlain]

thats not the orginnial

[pussysissy]

@Gutlain yess it is.... way before the Chris martin 1... around 2005

[pussysissy]

@Gutlain yess it is.... way before the Chris martin 1... around 2005.

[nycait882006]

love chris martin but this version is so much better

[DollarBillUK]

I love Coldplay, but this version is so much better. Anyone know where I can download this. All I can find is shitty quality versions.

[Gemberland2004]

This beat can make you cry it's so soulful

[wayneisagook]

the 31 dislikes come from people who like soulja boy

[MRKSC13]

@nickyq52 well he was around gangs though and love this song I found it by mistake but this is raw and soulful.

[DaSpaceJammer]

@jahrasta311 fuckin kill urself for sayin that bullshit

[xxx3ss3nc3xxx]

Thsi version is wayyyy better than the one with Chris Martin. I heard this one first back in '02 and when I heard the new one I was kind of disapppointed lol. This one is sooooo much for soulful.

[MzmlW]

Common - I Used To Love H.E.R with lyrics

watch that video kanye swagga jacked the first line

[Adjei88]

@MzmlW iz called sampling my friend kanye isn'tthe only one who has used that line, you wont rip common for using "when i reminisce over you my god" in I Want You

[ericatate22]

@MzmlW of course all rappers do it. its called sampling

[JahRasta311]

it's too bad kanye sucks, this beat is ruined.

[JahRasta311]

lmao @ origiANAL

[noduda]

I like this one better.

[VRQwerty]

this verison was better..

[Dubs2812]

You spelt 'Original' wrong

[Blackshades101]

This WAY better then the version with Chris Martin because the music sounds like the hardships he went through.

[ECINERWILLIE]

The girl singing in the background is awesome!!!!! Sing it girl...

[MzBrittanya]

this beat is so cold...that other version sucks...but this right here...man eye have been lookin for this song for a year...found it finally...eye used two play this fifty times a day everyday...man the memories

[ECINERWILLIE]

@MzBrittanya arf!!!!!!

[NickChatham]

[illeskobar]

[gpultech202115]

[MrRobertmarkshirley]

[nickyq52]

he is not gang affliated

[DtRelle08]

i definitely like this verson better it has more soul in it, it doesnt sound commercial it sounds like he spit this frm the heart

[runningtings101]

we need more of this and less gay fish from ye

[1phreshprince1]

@runningtings101 hey listen you guys are actin like 808's was no good listen it was him mourning over his moms the onli thing is the auto-tune the lyrics are so heart filled and touching

[mslexirae92]

I LOVE!

[Sleepyflyer]

shoot for the stars so if you fall you land on the clouds; good lyrics

[jjfarm58]

@Sleepyflyer man we need this ego less kanye back when he made real ish or should say songs that makes you feel it in more than one way

[celticstoday]

im almost sure this is just a mix.

[marqren]

@celticstoday no... this is the REAL version. this is the one that was on the college dropout. it came out years before the other one.

[rivastreetrep]

@celticstoday This isnt a mix, I heard this one back in '05, it was on his "Freshman Adjestment" mixtape. You can tell the difference in his voice, it was made after his accident

[LilRAPNIK]

where can i get this without paying? (please respond)

[rivastreetrep]

@LilRAPNIK I can send it to you if you like

[no1smilah]

@LilRAPNIK Yo can download youtube downloader n download then convert the file to an mp3 file... sometimes quality aint great but its trial and error.... Or check out piratebay, its a website.... torrent files!

[Jusabeaut1]

LOve this version... I heard this like back in 05 06. He definitely should have used this one instead. It really does go way harder than the one on Graduation.

[angeleyeszani1]

this version goes harder than the rest!

[hungrypinoy808]

Oh shit it was dat simple? lol damn shoulda dun dat in da first place. Xo thnx man!

[hungrypinoy808]

yo man im lookin for this instrumental to play for ma grandpas funeral. do you know how i can get it???

[Jusbts]

I like this version better

[chaoticnightmarepro]

what sample is that?

[pjj1020]

this is amazing!!

[fiafjutt]

this version is way better then the other one, kanye merry me !

[gotooas]

this goes so fuckin better thn the otha version

[gangstabby1]

this shyt go hard

[bigot111]

his metaphor is crazy!

"And when I grew up she told me how to go downtown, and at night time her face lite up so astound!"

So at first glance you think he talking about this grown chick teaching him how to be good in the bed, but when you realize he's personifying Chi-town you see he's being more litteral. LOVED IT!

[SAHLISS]

i like this one just as much as the other

[Adjei88]

i met this girl when i was 3 yrs old

[KnarkKungen]

100% love to this song.

[electricdude417]

this is a cool version!

[allenbels]

this maybe my favorite kanye joint/beat, the lack of originality kanye showed by biting himself bar for bar when he released the other (wack in my opin). Nevertheless this is the jam

[chayangel815]

@allenbels well this one was never released as an official single or on any of his cds so he went back in the studio and made it more commercial (IMO).

[ferby34]

Def. My favorite version!

[EskimoDisco636]

nice

:)

[Kitsukaru]

Original is the best

[QueerBiNatureNYC]

where can i download this song?

[fitzsy78]

look up online video converter on youtube

[Libbyy0]

I love this version. My favourite song ever. The lyrics are amazinggg! < 3

[princessdee813]

ima meet kanye ugli a** and be like what happened to the old kanye..who made music like this that speak the truth..now his music sucks..and he do to

[DudeWhoMakesBeats]

by the line "i met this girl when i was three years old" means he moved to chicago when he was 3 after his mum broke up with his dad. he had a cold and his mum "fixed up something that was good for his soul, famous home-made chicken soup can i have another bowl?" HOPE HE GOES BACK TO ORIGINAL kanye

[SuperOriginalGuy]

@DudeWhoMakesBeats no, her name is Donda, he mentions, she taught me how to go down town (have sex). He also says "Hi, my name is Wendy and I like to blow trees". That's not his mom.

[impulse0]

@SuperOriginalGuy he's talking about chicago. "My name is Wendy and i like to blow trees" Wendy=Windy. Chi-Town is referred to as the windy city

[joegar317]

This version is so much better than the one with Chris Martin. John Legend has so much more feeling and soul. The other version just doesn't do it for me like this one does.

[caribgirl23]

@joegar317 100% agreed!

[hmohammed43]

I think this shoulda been released with homecoming

[ez344]

THAT IS PASSION RAW AND CUT

[avatarnook]

i had this version back in 2005.... everybody was sleep on dis.. good lookin my dude for bringin dis back down

[Joaopdc1]

fuck you pig

[tio1807]

faggot

[jriley626]

he recycled his line commons line. its something rappers do. its not uncommon.

ha. good joke.

[3ncor]

I wudnt say its stolen its more of a nod to him,the hole concept is the same apart from the fact kanyes talkin about chicago and common was talkin about hip hop,common is even in the video for homecoming

[kchyde]

Damn! Here you are again! talkin bout Ye 'stealing that line. Rappers do this ALL the time! Who gives a fuck!!!

[Simplymatt937]

I UsedTo Love H.E.R. Is One of My Favorite Songs Ever Also

[TheGanjaPuffer]

yeaaah best song eva

[VyvidVee]

this version is 30 times better than the new one.

[kimmay1996]

i fuc^^ng love you Kanye so f^^^^^^ much you are soooo amazng////// oh my god Kanye ly

[freshprinceofbalham]

this could have been more of a hit then the other

[LukasM1909]

absolutely amazing....great work Kanye:)

[ZingBingChing]

This one is just called "home"

[izmusiq]

lime wire i download it 4rm der ft john legend

[mominoori]

where can i download THIS version from? cz everywhere i download i get the other one and i liek more...

[mycuz3]

I like this version better, its so soulful. First time I heard it, got to the end and then realized he was talking about Chicago and not a female. His play on words was on point!

[soulphresh]

yeah he uses personification. he met this girl when he was 3 years old, thats when music hit him and so on. real soulful song :)

[SamoftheWard]

I think it's when he moved to Chicago rather than when music hit him

[NoIrANge1]

official vid here... /watch?v=JFzik2GmnAk

[willyjowdy]

love this version when kanye first came out shits hard

[bgddoru]

all the idiots with official, original video. OMFG

[fayte1133]

no lol

[dreakaweedy]

i wounder if everyone talking about music?

when he said he meet this girl.

personification.

:)

[XXRAFERXX]

i dont think its a sample

[itsuponus]

What is the original song... Songs still dope though.

[mast333r]

where do you get to here the real song

[megaboss74gd]

kanye kill't it again...i feel u on dis one...chi city!!!!!!!1

[MrBryan09]

[runningtings101]

[Petzep]

its super good

but it's called HOME at the album freshman's adjustment :P

zjek it out ;)

peac

[nmont004]

the best version

[amcooj]

i like this version better thier both good but i feelin this one more

[outforpresidents]

Anybody know what sample this is?

[1freeman4]

i wish there was an unedited version =((

[kinderchef]

This version is ten times better. More raw,real and soulful. Plus Johnny Legend is leagues above Chris Martin. The sample on this is repetitive but it still sends chills down my spine when I think about my chick i met when I was 3 years old.

In the Chris Martin version Yeezy sounds off beat and not really into it. Over produced, bland and Cold (pardon the pun) Give me John and Mr West anyday.

[cravethecaptain]

I wish he never re-did it with Chris Martin, but I guess he has his reasons. Gotta respect him, but then new version of this is not as good as this original. When we heard this about 5 years ago, we knew he was gonna blow up.

[marykae08]

Couldnt agree more. Beat is a million times better.

[orLandobLoom333]

hahaha.. ORIGIANAL version?:D

[orLandobLoom333]

waaaaaaaaaaay better than the other version!

looove it! ♥

[bulleyoh]

This should have been on "The College Dropout."

[my100attempt]

orginal? wtf

[124052]

I meant DJCooqiedough not the guy above me.

Wow, I just took like 4 comments to say one thing :P

[2008rebirthx]

ok maybe it is his voice sound funni was this recorded after the accident?

[cloud6060]

wut accident?

[2008rebirthx]

The car accident u kno with his chin and jaw geten messed up had to get a plate in hes chin

[2008rebirthx]

this is not kanye

[Fq6]

Like this thing waaaay better the one with chris martin is waaaaaay too commercial!! this one is more kanyeezy!lovehisrhymezz

I agree 100%
