Idolator: Music News, Reviews, And Gossip — ... continue, but take note: The drums on the chorus absolutely slay. (And I'm starting to wonder if the lack of a bridge is actually something of a deliberate aesthetic choice, a way to sonically communicate the dying embers of romance that Kanye's singing about.
