I’ve been meaning to do a post on Kanye for a while, but by the time I got round to writing the first one, it was too long after the release of Stronger for me to really do anything with that.
Then Graduation came out, and to say I was uninspired by that would be an understatement. I seem pretty alone in that opinion, although Drowned in Sound seems to agree with me, the money quote being
Five years’ time, tool up like Ralph Wiggum and prepare to say “I can’t believe I used to go out with you” every time he walks past.
But I’ve always thought I should say something about him, if only to point out the arrogance of releasing “Stronger by Kanye West”, rather than the more, um, accurate “Harder. Better. Faster. Stronger. [Kanye West Mix],” which is what that song is. Still, it satisfies my lust for strange cover versions, so who am I to complain, really?
Anyway, the recent thing that brought mister West back to me was another strange cover, this time with 30 Seconds to Mars covering him covering Daft Punk. An interesting choice, but sadly all it does is prove how the merits in each of the two originals were the (variously) brilliant orchestration, fantastic beats, and, of course, Kanye’s delivery. None of which feature on this, leaving a dreary, repetitive (nearly seven minute) drudge through an already too-familiar song.

Jared Leto is AMAZINGLY HOTT!!! im in absolute LOVE with him!!!
It doesn’t sound like Jared Leto singing that song “Broken”. Why is Kanye West’s name on the link in projectplaylist for this song, too?
I LOVE Jared Leto!! everything he does is amazing and Fuck you all who dont think so!!!
uh no offence to all Jared Leto haters, but unless you know him and have a friendship with him you cant really say that you know how he is and what he is like and judging him makes you as bad as he is, or as you call claim.
Personally I like him.
The only thing I have to say is FUCK that one person (Julian)that said “I fucking hate Jared Leto.” YOU are just hating on Jared because he is more of a MAN than you will EVER be. Thanks (Liz) for that lovley response you gave that HATER! (Mairah) does it really matter what he says, (he can do whatever he wants because he has THE WORLD in his hands) he is the HOTTEST thing on THE UNIVERSE! Jared is ONE of the most talented people in the world, he can do it all. The band is fucking awsome, that’s they have a ECHELON and MARS ARMY! He is just a CRAZY ASS dude and we love him like that!
FUCK ALL THE NONBELIEVERS!!!…
FUCK ALL THE NONBELIEVERS!!!…
FUCK ALL THE NONBELIEVERS!!!…
