V vs SFBM 2:, lyrical comparisons Options

[LiveRoCkS77]

Please feel free to compare lyrical mishaps from these two albums. Post the worst and post the best. /By the end, hopefully we can mostly agree as to which was most poorly written.

My vote goes to V....although I'm open to being proven wrong.

Let the shitslinging begin!

I still say no matter what that I'd listen to V 10 times over before listening to SFBM once. The problem with comparing the lyrics is that so much of SFBM is just absolutely as safe as you can get, the lyrics biggest crime are being so god damn dull and boring. V has some shockers, like really bad, but I still like the fact that I can have fun with it more so because you know it was written in a heartbeat. It wasn't really trying to say something and failing like SFBM.

SFBM suffered badly from overuse of the word "like" and using way too many bad similes. "Such and such is like such and such", its one of the worst, laziest and most dull forms of song writing you can come up with. I know not every use of the word 'like' is when you're comparing something to something else, but there are 54 "like"'s in SFBM as opposed to V's 22.
Infact looking at Live's albums from MJ to V the word "like" increases with every album bar the first, it goes from - 9, 8, 10, 18, 22, 36, 54 ... that's amazing to think that such a word and the way it's used to just keep increasing and increasing .. no surprise that as it increases, the song writing quality decreases. I think it's just an example of how the song writing gets lazier.
