Breakdown vs. I Get Lonely


Stepfon

Recommended Posts

Breakdown is one of the best songs of the 90s alongside The Roof.

 

I Get Lonely is great, but there are better songs on TVR (e.g. Empty)

Both of these songs are masterpieces and not even the most well known songs of theirs, a testament to both their legacies. But Breakdown is my fave, always gets me in my feels.

I love both, but I'll give this one to Mariah.

 

Do you cling to your pride and sing "I Will Survive"?
Do you lash out and say "How dare you leave this way"?
Do you hold on in vain as they just slip away?

You called yesterday to basically say
That you care for me but that you're just not in love
Immediately I pretended to be feeling similarly
And led you to believe I was O.K.
To just walk away from the one thing
That's unyielding and sacred to me

Well I guess I'm trying to be nonchalant about it
And I'm going to extremes to prove I'm fine without you
But in reality I'm slowly losing my mind
Underneath the guise of a smile gradually I'm dying inside
Friends ask me how I feel and I lie convincingly
'Cause I don't wanna reveal the fact that I'm suffering
So I wear my disguise 'til I go home at night
Then turn down all the lights and then I break down and cry

Impossible choice for me, both are truly between their best songs, two masterpieces.

This is hard, IGL is a grander sounding song, production wise.

 

I listen to Breakdown more... But both are great, could go either way depending on my mood.

Breakdown is not just a song. It's a masterpiece lyrically and musically. They way a powerhouse vocalist just all of a sudden record a hip hop record like that is just so surreal. This was the perfect blend of poetry and thug, and of femininity and masculinity.
