1. Lose Yourself - Incredible song, very serious and unbelievable rhymes. Amazing beat that flows perfectly with his personal rhymes. Won an oscar
2. Stan - Tells a tragic story with the haunting Dido chorus. Perfect delivery and nice escalating beat. His most critically acclaimed song.
3. Till I Collapse - Awesome pump up song, very hardcore, sick beat
4. When Im Gone - Tells the story of the struggle between Eminem's life as a rapper and his life as a father and husband. Very Uplifting
5. Like Toy Soldiers - Beautiful chorus that contrasts the cold tone of his verses that describe beef between rappers and his duty as a rapper.
6. The Way I Am - Eminem telling the world that this is how he is and he doesnt care who likes him. Great chorus.
7. Infinite - Best song off his first album ``Infinite`` ridiculous multi rhymes that weave around the chill beat smoothly and effortlessly
8. Rock Bottom - Very gloomy, depressing song. His ability to weave multiple rhymes into one line shine here.
9. Beautiful - Perfect title. From the powerful interlude of Reaching Out by Paul Rodgers to the great lyrics telling us all that anyone can be beautiful.
10. Mockingbird - Eminem trying to explain life to his daughter. full of sadness and emotion great beat. Eminem shows off his voice on the chorus.
11. Sing For the Moment - Great mix between rock and rap with the song Dream on by Areosmith. Eminem never misses a rhyme or beat as he talks about his upbringing and talks about why rappers talk about such violent concepts.
12. Difficult (Dudey) Different versions because it was leaked before finished but i like the version with no chorus. Beautiful "When im Gone type Beat" to go along with Eminem's tear jerking, story telling lyrics revolving around the life of his best friend Proof who past away. An emotional powerhouse
13. The Sauce - Heated, intense, high paced response towards rapper Benzinos beef with him. Excellent flow and pain inflicting lyrics. Eventually Benzinos career was ended.
14. Just Dont Give a *beep* - Eminems response to the people outraged over his controversial lyrics. lyrics flow very nicely.
15. Still Dont Give A *beep* - Eminem exercising his right to freedom of speech. In response to complaints about his lyrics he lets people know that he doesnt give *beep* by filling a song with controversial content.
16. We As Americans - Very politically inspired. Adresses problems with the government. ``I dont rap for dead presidents, Id rather the see the president dead. its never been said but i set precendents`` Line earned Eminem attention from the white house.
17. No Apologies - haunting piano beat. Intense flow as eminem expresses his anguish towards critics and explains that he doesnt give a *beep* about the consequences of his lyrics.
18. Cleaning Out My Closet - Perfect example of eminem venting his anguish towards his mother. Very cold and intense.
19. The Real Slim Shady - Song caused alot of controversy and sealed the legendary Slim Shady nickname.
20. Rabbit Run - Song about B Rabbit in 8 mile. Very intense starts off fast and doesnt slow down just one big verse.

Nothing from Infinite on there? Quite possibly his sickest album imo. If you haven't you should check it out.

[–] youre_speaking_Korean 14 years ago

i love that despite having nowhere near the mainstream hype of other songs, Till I Collapse always gets put on lists by his big fans, almost unanimously...

1. Lose Yourself
2. Till I Collapse
3. Almost Famous (best song on Recovery)
4. Infinite
5. My Name Is (so great that the studio tried to make him replicate it on all subsequent albums)
6. Square Dance
7. Mosh
8. White America
9. Stan
10. Cleanin Out My Closet
11. Just Don't Give a *beep*
12. Like Toy Soldiers
13. Won't Back Down
14. We as Americans
15. Role Model

too me, thats a combination of his best pop hits with his best darker album tracks... no Relapse track though (can you blame me)? Recovery is sooo awesome though...

"13. The Real Slim Shady - Song caused alot of controversy and started the legendary Slim Shady nickname."

Don't know where you got this from, he had the alter ego slim shady since his second ep from 1997 funnily enough called 'the slim shady ep', the song you are talking about was only released in 2000 so he was slim shady way before that song.

check your quoting again sir

[–] 60-second-assassin 13 years ago

2 pages and not one mention of Stay Wide Awake? I dont care how you feel about Relapse, that is easily his most impressive song from a technical standpoint. Ridiculous lyrics and delivery. No mention of Infinite? Still Dont Give a ****?

[–] Hopper10 13 years ago

I made this a while ago obviously changes need to be made but stay wide awake? is one of the lesser songs on Relapse. While the beat is pretty good hes rapper in that annoying comical way. His flow desperately goes along with the beat, so much that it sounds ridiculous. Beautiful is the gem on Relapse and is the only song that would deserve a spot on his top 15.

Dear Warden, You were right. Salvation lies within.

[–] patali09 8 years ago

I love stay wide awake.

Maybe I'm crazy, but I liked a fair few of the songs on relapse.
