So bowing out in 3rd place is...

03. Kanye West - Love Lockdown (14 votes, 51.85%)

Just missing out in taking part in this big final is the lead single from '808's & Heartbreaks', 'Love Lockdown'. The song was a drastic departure from Kanye's previous sounds, with the heavy use of auto-tune to top off the drum based tribal production, creating a powerful and energetic vibe. The song provides us with possibly one of Kanye's most experimental and compelling music videos, also emphasising the song's African influences, with the inclusion of tribe members. The song became a big hit worldwide, including a peak of #8 in the UK and #3 in the US.




03. Love Lockdown (14 votes, 51.85%)

It is a brilliant top 2. Apart from 'Jesus Walks' and 'Niggas In Paris', I think these are my two favourites so I am thrilled.

'Power' is just that bit better though and would be a perfect winner.

I meant to vote 'All Of The Lights' as I thought we were voting for favourite. Can someone subtract one from 'Power' and add to that? tongue.gif

'Heartless' deserved better but did well, however 'No Church In The Wild' out so early? sad.gif

I think I've only voted for eight songs during the entire course of this poll.

Imma let 'Power' finish, but 'All Of The Lights' is one of the best songs of all time.

I did toy with the idea of #PowerToWin, However, 'All of the Lights' is innovative and boundary breaking to another level. I love how he uses a plethora artists like Rihanna, La Roux, John legend, Fergie, Alicia to name a few (The Kid Cudi part being my favourite). The extended version of the song is a winner for me, especially when listened to with the prelude. And the video heart.gif

Very tough to call between these two. But 'Power' wins for me but only just.

Power is just that, so powerful and so much better than All of the Lights. That's good and all, but nowhere near a winner.

NOOOO. Love Lockdown is probably my 2nd favourite Kanye song (behind Niggas In Paris), was hoping it could win. Not sure what to go for here, they're both 7/10-7.5/10 kind of songs, but I voted for Power. I don't think either really make Kanye-defining winners but I do prefer All Of The Lights.

Both excellent tracks & deservedly the final 2 BUT...

All Of The Lights is easily my favourite ever track of his, so I'm voting Power.

'Power' is my favourite song of ALL TIME so I'm going for 'All of the Lights'.
'Power' is just so massive. Perfection to these ears.
