lyrics
[Intro: Kanye West & Young Thug]
High lights
Tell my baby I'm back in town
High lights
Tell everybody I'm back in town
High lights
Tell my baby I'm back in town, town
High lights
[Chorus: Kanye West & Young Thug]
We only makin' the highlights
Tell my mama, tell my mama, that I only want my whole life to only be highlights
We only makin' the highlights
Tell my mama, tell my mama, that I only want my whole life to only be highlights
[Post-Chorus: TWF Tony Williams]
I wanna play with you all night long
Then after tonight
[Verse 1: Kanye West]
Can we play that back one time?
And after that night I'm gon' wanna play this shit back, I don't know
Sometimes I'm wishin' that my dick had GoPro
So I could play that shit back in slo-mo
I just shot an amateur video; I think I should go pro
[Chorus: Kanye West & Young Thug]
We only makin' the highlights (slow motion, slow motion)
We only makin' the highlights (slow motion, slow motion)
Tell my mama, tell my mama, that I only want my whole life to be only be highlights
[Post-Chorus: TWF Tony Williams]
I wanna play with you all night long
Then after tonight (slow motion)
[Verse 2: Kanye West]
I bet me and Ray J would be friends
If we ain't love the same bitch
Yeah, he might have hit it first
Only problem is I'm rich
[Interlude: Carole King & Kanye West]
You've got to get up every morning
You've got to get up every morning
I live my life on the highlights
You've got to get up every morning
With a smile on your face
And show the world that you've got love in your heart
Oh no, gotta play this shit back
[Verse 3: Kanye West]
And eventually there's gon' be so many niggas
Pool party on the weekend, that's the business
There's one white girl told me she hate white cock
That's when I knew hip hop was the new rock
When you know you gotta keep your business zip-loc'd
Cause the nigga still got her Gucci flip-flops
[?] take her on a c-cold adventure
Old bitches know I put the dick on they dentures
Might tell 'em Lexington Steele is my mentor
Famous people act so damn pretentious, huh?
What she need is an hour of some inches, huh?
Got a thick dick hopping on some trenches, huh?
Got the Fruit of Islam in the trenches. huh?
Even though they know Yeezus is a Christian, huh?
She spent a whole check on some Christians, huh?
And that bitch ain't even religious, huh?
I'm respected, I'm way too prestigious
Y'all motherfuckers throwing bows like Riddick
Crack coke, crack sale, white niggas got mail
Might drop a baby line and call that shit Pastel
Walkin', livin', breathin', god, you know my past well
Hard to believe in God, your nigga got killed
Bad bitches fuckin' Rob, though he overweight
I wish my trainer would, tell me what I overate
So when I'm on vacay, I need to kick back
Hah, huh, what you want?
Want a boss or an R&B nigga with a six pack?
I need every bad bitch up in Equinox
I need to know right now if you a freak or not
I need every bad bitch up in Equinox
I need to know right now if you a freak or not
I need every bad bitch up in Equinox
I need to know right now if you a freak or not
I need every bad bitch up in Equinox
I need to know right now if you a freak or not
[Sample: Jen Selter]
(I love social media, I love fitness and I love photography)
[Verse 4: Kanye West]
I need at least seven days with Chloe Sevigny
Since I saw Brown Bunny, it ain't never been the same
I ain't gon' tell ya that I've never been a lame, but
Ever since with Hov, I got that Roc-A-Fella chain
Man, shit just changed, shit just changed
My nigga Dame said let's get this change
Get this thing, iPhone thing
Hop on [?] then I hit
[Chorus: Kanye West & Young Thug]
We only makin' the highlights (slow motion, slow motion)
We only makin' the highlights (slow motion, slow motion)
Tell my mama, tell my mama, that I only want my whole life to be only be highlights
[Post-Chorus: TWF Tony Williams]
I want to play with you all night long
Then after the night
I want to play with you all night long
Then after the night
[Chorus: Kanye West & Young Thug]
We only makin' the highlights
Tell my mama, tell my mama, that I only want my whole life to be only be highlights

Man that sample after the Ray J line goes crazy
Hell yea, Carole King- Beautiful
I thought I was the only one that heard that it’s actually sick
People overlook this song a lot but its genuinely one of my favs on TLOP. So good
man this was so fucking crazy, og and final version are two completely different songs
Thuggers vocals are less edited on the og
Wait till you hear the swish version it’s so good
That "you've got to get up every mornin" sample is fire. Wish it could've stayed in.

Carole King tapestry is a great album surprised it's not sampled more
@@matthewhull5720 I assume it's clearance issues
22 Grammys 😀
superstar family
@@florian3298 we the new Jacksons and I’m about that ACTION

@@ricardo5965 i aint left the studio
Damn this fire but so is the album version
agreed.
this is way better. more fleshed out.
The most fire part where he put the violins in with the beat jeez that was so good
@@nelsonmercadojr2749 that dosent mean it’s better
@@raynium1 to me it does. you your opinion I have mine
damn this version is all over the place. the final mix is a lot more cohesive but this has some cool stuff going on. I like Kanye's tone in his verses here a lot more honestly.
both versions need more Thugger.
Some really emotional moments.
What’s wild is how many versions we get to see. As an artist this shows me more into a process that truly builds the most beautiful songs.
I love social media, I love fitness and I love photography
"I need every bad bitch up in Equinox" hits different over those marching band drums
That Ray J line man
the amount of layering this guy does to one song before it’s complete is wild
This was one of my favorite eras. Stuff getting upgraded with patch notes really had the project feeling like a year of drops
This man is creative
This is the most Kanye song ever
Really interesting that so many people seem to prefer this to the album version; not only do I feel that the album version is 10 times better, but I feel like the sheer difference in quality really emphasises why Kanye is such a genius. There isn't a single difference between these two that I think wasn't a good decision. There's so many superfluous samples and sounds that just don't gel (especially the sample after the Ray J line) - the minimal final mix is a perfectly judged and curated balance of all these ideas. Ye is on another level.
I think this track is better but it sonically doesn't fit Pablo as well as the version that ended up on the album which is more minimal and in line with the kind of production that ended up on the album
I prefer this too, it sounds perfect
I agree
This track is way better you trippin
The emotion of the takes and the changes in this makes way more sense, The arrangement in this sounds better too. It’s in a different key than the final version but it still slaps way harder. Especially when the marching band drums kick in and stay for the rest of the track.
interesting, i personally loved that sample after that line
man i’m really missin the “ohhhh na na na na” after he says he needs to kick back
facts
shh dont tell anyone but this is way better than the album version
fortune500b that’s exactly what I think too 😂😂
fax, everything else is better
Highlights was such a shit tier song on the album
Tanner Markland i feel like it had more potential it didn’t get to be curated to
No
Love both versions of this song. I'm lucky to have access to both.
Good to know that the gopro line was in the original 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The demo was originally called "Gopro" in his files instead of Highlights
THE BEGINNING IS SO GOOD
This over the album version...
This is beautiful.
This version of the song is so good it's unbelievable that he changed it
YOUNG THUG SO AMAZIN
We need more Thugger and Kanye collabs 🙅🏿♂️
😭😭😭
I love how much is going on in this song
Too fucking much but that’s why it’s good
It sounds like 5 good songs that got slapped together. lol
honestly i prefer the album version more but this version is still pretty amazing
Same here!
Y’all trippin this is beautiful I damn near cried🔥
I wish THE LIFE OF PAUL was on RUclips
Life of Paul🥴
Veggis Teggis it’s so raw
Geron Fletcher what is this life of paul you speak of
@@typicaldigicamenjoyer aye deadass What is “The Life of Paul” cause i’m curious
@@silk3142 tlop edit from 2017 by some guy called dorian ye
The og album has just changed my life forever and I am eternally grateful, yeezus is real
3:17-3:30 made love to the drummer in my soul 🔥🔥🔥
bro both versions are mental but holy shit this is amazing
Damn this is way more genuine than the album version. How am I just hearing this
1:25 Reminds me of the Arthur Theme Song
LMFAOOOO
I feel like young thug has his own song with this beat 🥲 sounds so good
You can't really say it's distributed by Def Jam when it's never been released lol. Great track though.
Exactly!!!! Fuck tidal
It was released as a download
@York Goldstein I read that months ago before I knew what tidal was, now coming back knowing what it is... That's what did it?!
I mean it was actually released on tidal i think then it got changed
Thank you for this
man i really love this version
Only Kanye have these high level demos bruh
1:03 wish they kept that lil funky keyboard riff
That carol king sample bruh that shit moves me
Love this version yeeezzz💖💖💖💖
this is art fr
Put the sample after Ray J line in the official track just in that order instead of the official one, the ending here added with the official ending, and the track is perfect
Fax
This is a completely different song but I see why people prefer this one
I love this so much
This is fire
This SLAPS
Go Pro
Wow. Just found this in 2024…beautiful.
I love social media I love fitness and I love photography
holy shit this is great
3:02 kanye is literally speechless
This version is mixed better, but more messy???
I like how Thug shines on this song I never realized that he was on this song!
Changes my entire perspective on this song as a whole!
RIP Kim and Kanye. She was jamming out to this in KOWTK.
@General Grievous oh no I was drunk when I commented lol
@@mariyaqueen4913lmfao
Beautiful
I only want my whole life to only be highlights 💕
Crazy thing is, this song evolved from a song from the good ass jog era in like 2009
yeah
_yeah_
*yeah*
U got to get up every morning with a smile on ur face and show the world all the love in ur heart 🙏🙏🙏😮💨🔥
Fire
the album version>>>>>
i love the tony williams vocals on this version
THUGGA GOATED
♥
better than the released version
this sounds like that Downtown leak from the GAJ era
That’s what I’m saying
RIP BOB SAGET
most underrated comment for infinity.
AFV!
could somebody do a mashup between both versions?
Wish thug could’ve had a verse
Fr but his contribution was still nice. This that Jeffrey era Thug
nah this was perfect his little hints in the intro and through out is way doper
cut verse so hard 😫
Had to put the beats on for this one…speaker didn’t do it justice.
I wish someone makes an edit combining the released version with og versions chorus at the end, that would ve been the best track
For sure
Kinda crazy that the released song was pitched down from this version
*LIGHTS*
🎸
I wish the whole song had that thug adlib at 00:48 shit is perfect
Is the “I want to play with you all night long” only made for this song or was that sampled from a tony Williams song?
The original demo was made with Madonna and it sounds great. You can listen the demo with Madonna on RUclips
Please upload on Spotify please
🥰🥰🥰
this is better than the album version
This version is cool, but Rihanna singing on the final mix is what sets the entire tone of the song. Her being gone is like direction is lost
What? Rihanna isn't on the final ver, its The-Dream that sing s at the end. Unless there's another version with Rihanna on it maybe?
@@ultimatekiwi-gd2370 I could’ve sworn that was Rihanna tho? Wtf
@@dtbffe8306 Did you mean at the very end or at the very start?
@@ultimatekiwi-gd2370 the very beginning
@@dtbffe8306 Well it's actually Kelly Price at the start
2:40
Please someone download link
I wish thug had his own verse
Was this freestyled?
ye has the blueprints ...
This is dope, but I get why Ye didn't put it in the final. Doesn't "fit" as well as a cohesive experience.
??? TLOP is not really a cohesive experience, more of the opposite
@@theunrealyaxyt1410 fr thats like the while point of the album is to be all over the place and represent his mental state
@@theunrealyaxyt1410 The minimal production of Pablo holds it together. It’s a mess thematically but not sonically.
“I need at least seven days with Chloe Sevigny
Since I saw Brown Bunny, it ain't never been the same”
Ye knows
There are better lyrics on this one but I think the album version is better
hard truth
Production is way better on album, more finished and many more layers
@@dillonstave the bass is so nice on the album version
Album version is so much cleaner. This one sounds sloppy and all over the place lol
I like this version way better and it would’ve been cool to hear more thugger
This should of been the version
3:25
Thug gone get scrapped from Highlights to River
Wish this was the final version
This version is a mess tbh
It’s been 6 years that the fact Rihanna isn’t the one saying « HIGHLIGHTS » in the intro doesn’t sit right wit me
That’s not Rihanna lmao
where'd you find this?
🤑👽🦥🦭🦦🐻❄️🤍🇿🇲💰💃🏿💰💰💰💰💰
3:31 - 3:46 sound like tcd/lr ye
