This part is way better to hear after you listen to the whole song, because since you need to wait longer, it's more pleasurable to hear afterwards. Forbidden fruit effect, or whatever it is called
Fun fact, the solo came as an improvisation because Ronnie Van Zant (the lead singer) needed time to rest his voice between songs. So the two guitarists would jam out while Ronnie rested
I think the first part builds anticipation for this part, but it's still nice to have this version bc sometimes I really do just wanna skip to the guitar solo
It doesn't really build up, and that's the point. It is supposed to have you shocked at what happens. I take it as a symbol of life and how things will go smooth and than all of a sudden, things get crazy, and without warning, it ends. The whole lyrics is about someone being sad to leave someone else.
I imagine people who don't want to listen to the first half of free bird like me not wanting to listen to the last 9 minutes of gorillaz' doyathing and I can respect that
The first half sets the tone and acts as a big buildup so that when the drop comes, it's more engaging. If it was at the start of the song, it wouldn't be a drop cause there would be no buildup.
Honestly one of the truest comments I’ve ever read. DoYaThing is one of my favorite Gorillaz songs ever but Jesus the full version I can’t stand. Single edit ftw
The song is quite good, but not gonna lie, the first part is a snoozefest. I’m happy to see that I’m not the only one that feels that way. Edit: I think I reorganized my ideas a bit, the problem isn’t the first part itself, but the fact that the build up happens twice. The song reaches a point where the tone is hyped up, and then decides to ditch it and starts rebuilding. I feel that this repeat fulls the song.
Since today's my last day at my job and since it's the last day of the year this song fits good to end the year off and I was imagining the second half of this song while working for one last time at my job.
Usually, when I listen to music, I listen to the journey. I imagine that music is like a car drive, quietly building up intensity and, before you know it, you're out of the city. Free Bird is my only exception.
Somehow people are surprised when a vast majority of listeners prefer to not listen to an 9+ minute long marathon of a song and just want to get to the best part while also trimming the song to an average length
A perfect song! The first four minutes is the build up! Leading in to some of the best riffs in music history! The first half is necessary! But the second is what makes the song legendery
