Originally posted by swissman Why are people acting like it was between R. Kelly and Rihanna for this song?

R Kelly has written and worked with legends and icons like Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Biggie Jay-Z, Aaliyah, The Isley Brothers and Celine Dion. He's worked on 4 soundtracks for mainstram blockbuster movies. 4 of his albums outsold Rihanna's 7 (over 35 million). He's not some disposible pop artist.

Originally posted by abrahamjmr How many Grammys did We Found Love win? Is it ranked as one of the 500 greatest songs of all time? How many movies have used We Found Love as part of their soundtrack? How many times have We Found Love been covered by a legend like Etta James? You can't compare a classic to a song that has yet to become a classic.

-WFL won one Grammy, which adds to her already extensive collection. Rih doesn't have ONE Grammy, she has multiple.
-It is not ranked because the RS's "500 Greatest Songs of All Time" came out before WFL came out.
-Not yet, but have been used in multiple trailers for movies.
-It's been two years since its release. Etta covered IBICF ten years later. Coldplay, even if they are hated, are getting to the legend status soon enough and they've covered WFL.
-Matter of opinion.

Originally posted by EdgeOfAddiction It's not basic. It comes from a different period of music with completely different inspirations. Just as IBICF became a staple sound of the 90s, WFL is on it's way (if not already) to be coming a staple of this current period of music. Who's to say 20 years from now WFL won't be remembered over IBICF?

I have never liked WFL. It's too repetitive, sonically, lyrically and vocally.

She has better songs. Umbrella>>>>>>>>>>>>>WFL

Originally posted by ivi Because there was a rumour for a song with Gaga and Rihanna. And Gaga has now released a tracklist and R. Kelly is featured. But Rihanna was rumoured for Sex Dreams, while R. Kelly is featured on another song. Pointless thread.

You can't tell other stans that they're living in the past when you bring up albums sales from the 90s compared to 2005-20013. In 2 years, WFL managed to almost match the total sales of IBICF that has so far spanned 17 years.

Originally posted by swissman If you don't want to bring album sales into it because too much has changed in the industry, it's unfair to then bring up singles sales because those too have drastically changed since the 1990s.

Keep trying. We Found Love is nowhere to be a classic, not yet.

Again, that is matter of opinion. Repetition helps people memorize and get it stuck in their head. Very common trick used in pop music, or do you not agree?

We Found Love WAS released during the digital age. Keep embarrassing yourself.
