Song Of The Day: Welcome To Heartbreak

03:58


The song of the day is Welcome To Heartbreak by Kanye West with additional vocals by Kid Kudi and Jeff Bhasker. This song is from the timeless masterpiece 808's and Heartbreak released in 2008. If you have been reading a lot of my posts you would realize that i'm a big Kanye fan (thanks to kuyemazing). But really if you pay attention to the work he does you would realize that he is really good and kinda under appreciated. According to wikipedia welcome to heartbreak was inspired by a conversation with the MTV Executive Vice President Dave Sirulnick, who showed him some photos of his wife and children. If you listen to the words in the song there were a lot of paradoxes. The message in the song really is how his success has really hindered him from achieving some basic things. It is very reflective about his achievements but also makes him wonder if every thing he has gained or has been able to do is really worth it. The instruments in the song include Violins, String instruments, Heavy drums, keyboards and other instruments.  This is one of the songs and albums that made good use of the autotune effect (vocoder).  The song has this classical feel and is really calm and goes with the theme of the whole album.
