Wow I always heard the lyric as, "And they'll be chasing OUR tails trying to track us down"

That line would be so much better! Though I don't think it would improve the ranking much... probably enough to move it up two rankings, but I'd have to think hard if I wanted to move it above #70.



Only one song this morning to get the number of eliminated songs back on track after last night's extra elimination:

Nominator: Dragon66116 (5/15)


Hey, remember how I said that there was someone else who made a rap song that sampled Nightcall that I didn't like?

...

Turns out it wasn't this guy! As soon as I heard that Lupe had his own take on that song (American Terrorist III), I figured that had to be the song I was thinking of. It was thematically appropriate: This topic, after several years, giving me yet another chance to directly compare Childish Gambino and the rapper I couldn't remember the name of--this time with fully original songs, unlike the last time.

Then I listed to American Terrorist III and I definitely never heard that song before. Which is unfortunate, because I really like it too! Probably not as much as R.I.P., it's not a life-changing epipheny of music, but it's really great.

...too bad you didn't nominate that one. Not that you could have possibly known "alternate versions of Nightcall" were my thing (much less that I would have such a very specific thing), but... well you indirectly led me to a song I wanted to hear, so I guess it worked out anyway?

As for this song, there are parts of it I like. It probably gets way too big a bonus for opening with pinball sounds and because it led me to the other song, but whatever.

[FINAL NOTES: Honestly, this song is much better than that write-up made it sound. It just doesn't compare too favorably to the Lupe Fiasco song that I want to be listening to instead, which makes it harder to say nice things about it than it should be.]
