Agreed.

And "Ordinary People" is nice, but there are probably about 5 or 6 songs on the album that I like even more. "Stay With You" is my favorite.

Used To Love You (even though I've had it on a Kanye mixtape for 2 years, I'm still not tired of it)

i will agree and say that, yeah the man has some gud materials. But ordinary people is just like....um...zzzzzzzzzzz.....come on, everytime it comes on, i sit there and wait for....i dunno...something, it's just the continuous sound of the piano and his voice sound so isolated, and it makes the song seem longer and eventually gets tired. But other than that....the man has some DEFINITE talent, and some damn brilliant materials.

Ive listened to this song many times..and I just don't see what all the talk is about.

Song is great, it's soulful, the melody, everything is nice about it.

I agree. It's not a bad song by any means, but it's one of my least favorites on the album. After a few minutes of it, it does get boring.

the song reminds me of "piano man" by billy joel.....

that also is a nice song
