^ I'd personally consider 'Man Down' to be a single!

 

Favourite 'Loud' album track for me... I can't decide between Fading and Complicated. Possibly an unpopular opinion, but my least favourite track on the album is 'Love The Way You Lie (Part II)'.

Jay's going to be banned from the Rihanna forum!

Man Down was a single I guess but not a main one, it wasn't a single here anyway :P aside from Man Down my pick would definitely be Complicated!

Loving the 'Fading' and 'Complicated' love :wub: *awaits a backlash for either of the tracks now*

Fading and Complicated are the only tracks on skip on this album...oops! :lol:

cali king bed and ltwyl are the two duds imo.

I just listened to Fading on Spotify and the beginning is changed? Copyright claims? I still love it, either way!

It was changed a few years ago (including future CD copies!) due to Enya not allowing the sample.

Oh, so that's why there are 2 versions of the standard edition on amazon. :o

No, that's for the clean and explicit versions. I unfortunately bought the former when I eventually got around to getting this. You can no longer buy the version with the Enya sample.

2,029,600 copies sold for Loud in UK.

 

10th biggest album of the decade.

I always forget when I play the album on streaming sites and not from my CD that the beginning of Fading is now changed.

 

That Enya sample really makes Fading tbh.

 

This is such a strong album though even California King Bed is sounding good and that was always my least fave ballad she’s ever done.

 

I think this is probably her most iconic album.

I've been listening to the album this morning and ranked the album:

 

1. S&M

2. Skin

3. Only Girl (In The World)

4. Love The Way You Lie Part II ft. Eminem

 

5. What's My Name ft. Drake

6. Man Down

 

7. Cheers (Drink To That)

8. California King Bed

 

9. Raining Men ft. Nicki Minaj

10. Complicated

11. Fading

This is as high as #3 on Ireland iTunes!

She has a new fan in Ireland :cheeseblock:

#42 on UK iTunes!
