Not shining quite as bright as you'd think, the next casuality is:

16. Kanye West - Diamonds From Sierra Leone (7 votes, 24.14%)

I have a lot of respect and love for this Grammy-award winning song. The lead single from 'Late Regristation', samples Shirley Bassey's iconic number and bravely tackled a huge issue for West Africa and the world that Kanye inhabited, a message that seeps through the song and music video. It features an additional verse/remix from Jay-Z which outshines the original (which was only featured as a bonus track on the album) and together with the blinding production and soaring chorus, it makes for one of his most interesting songs released. Still not enough to make the top 15, it crashes out as the competition intensifies.




16. Diamonds From Sierra Leone (7 votes, 24.14%)

Changed my vote from last round as after repeated listens I have decided I actually prefer 'Love Lockdown' to 'Flashing Lights'. I am so indecisive in this rate, its too hard laugh.gif

Urban mods seem to be in sync for a lot of this, 'Flashing Lights' for me too!

Diamonds is a classic to be honest, shows how strong his discography is when it cannot make the top 15!

Heartless (again) - not sure why it's so popular.

A bit sad for Diamonds, although admittedly it's the Jay-Z remix that really err shines.

Must be time for Homecoming this round!
