Used to generally skip it as well, though lately as I've started to listen to TEOM a lot more again, now that E=MC2 fever has died down for me, I've
found TTF is a refreshing respite from the pretty intense vocals from the songs preceding it. I do find myself actually enjoying this song now, whereas in
the past it was a bit blah.
And I never get the SS hate either. Again, since TEOM is a vocal powerhouse of an album, it feels nice to slow things down a bit and just take it easy on the
belting. It fits so well between MA and STN.
Completely agree about the refreshing respite part. TEOM would not have worked if every track had wild yelling / belting vocals. These songs were
much needed on the album and completely refreshing. Like MAriah contitunally says you don't need belting on every song!
I would understand the hate for the whispering if she did it on every track on TEOM, but really she only really whispers in SS; TTF, OAO and the beginning of
FLAB.
And it is really welcome in my opinion.
