Through The Wire is too unappreciated in my opinion, it's amazing! Most Loved By: 10 - HausofKubrick 10 - Jonjo 10 - Thermometer 10 - Griff Most Disliked By: 5 - kenukcsf

This was the follow-up single to "Through The Wire", a good follow up it is but in my opinion nowhere near the standard of TTW.

If we had a list of the most played songs of 2012 on Radio 1, this would be very high on that list.

Run This Town is largely forgotten in favour of Empire State Of Mind now, both songs are good but I do prefer ESOM. Rihanna's presence adds the rapping of Jay and Ye.

But I won't be revealing the top 10 yet. So feel free to predict! What is Buzzjack's favourite Kanye song? You have decided. It's one of these ten: ALL OF THE LIGHTS FLASHING LIGHTS GOLD DIGGER HEARTLESS KNOCK YOU DOWN LOVE LOCKDOWN NI**AS IN PARIS NO CHURCH IN THE WILD POWER RUNAWAY Predict the top 10! Edited April 20, 201312 yr by Thermometer
April 20, 201312 yr So much hate from the Dandy* AGAIN (this is becoming a thing now <_<). There's so much love from the Griff though! :wub: I've never really liked Run This Town or E.T., I don't get the appeal if I'm being honest. Edited April 20, 201312 yr by Grief
April 20, 201312 yr It would be horribly Buzzjack if "Knock You Down" were to win, but I'm expecting "Gold Digger" due to the fact that I don't know anyone to dislike it who might have voted. "All Of The Lights" might be a contender for the same reason. Of course I'm backing POWER but I'm expecting it to appear very soon.
April 20, 201312 yr Well my faves came crashing out in that 21-14 section, but of that top 10 i'd love to see Runaway or Heartless do it, but they'll probably be the next two out. Please let it actually be a Kanye song though (and not a Keri Hilson / joint effort one!)

I thought this would've finished a bit higher, just goes to show how unpredictable Buzzjack are sometimes. I don't need to explain why this song is so good!
