This song means everything to me. This is by far the best Eminem song. If times are hard, I listen to this song and I feel like I can do anything. I feel like I can handle anything. Every word gives me goosebumps. If there is anyone else out there that relates to this song, you aren't alone.
Not only Americans listen to Eminem. There’s no comparison to this artist and nor anyone will be like him in our life time. I’m so glad I witnessed everything while he still alive.
I’m from Saudi Arabia, I start listening to Em when I was 10 even I didn’t understand any single word , after I learned English I just felt that this man is the best one ever hold a pen ,
Might be Eminem at his best right here. His word play, flow, delivery, and rhyme scheme is elite on this one. Not too many can touch Em, dead or alive. Lyrically he’s one of the best.
Belak at least you aren’t a typical Stan who can’t accept there’s others on his level or capable. I mean the list is small but it exists. I do agree though he pretty much has every skill mastered
LethalAssassin 17 there’s plenty of other emcees that I would group with Eminem in terms of skill and capabilities. There’s a lot of elite lyricist out there. Rakim, black thought, method man, AZ, kool G just to name a few
@@belak1551 "My Melody" by Rakim is brilliant. "The melody that I'm stylin', smooth as a violin, rough enough to break New York from Long Island." Never heard anyone beat that line. I used to copy out whole sections of that song, because the lyrics were brilliant.
If rap was a Bible, this song alone would be Proverbs. How on earth can you summarise your whole childhood and movie in six minutes? The wordplay, the tempo, the flow, the beat, anyone can relate. I play this song whenever I feel like I'm slacking in life. Gives so much hope. Best song by him no doubt.
One of the best songs from old to fucking new and he's coming out with a new album soon I don't know the name so don't ask and he made a song with Elton John again
I could tell the story of that movie in 30 seconds. I recently watched it for the first time and was amazed with how simplistic and short its story was.
PLUS he wrote this shit WHILE FILMING the actual movie, when he had 10-15 mins of breaks he would sit down on the floor and write the whole OST for 8Mile, true artist there.
This is the most motivating song I have ever heard, and I just relate to it so much! I was rejected from more than 10 jobs and still applying, but this song just gives me so much energy! We all will find what we want my friends, just gotta get through this rough stage. Stay safe and take care!
@@sonnyred3800 stay strong brother! I am at the similar path as you are. Right now strugling with job that is good, but surely not the best. It gives me everything that I need, but nothing that I really want. I am sure you will so the right thing and find something that you enjoy doing. Stay strong and stay yourself and with time and dedication, everything that you ever wanted will come true. Good luck!
@@WyWid Wouldn´t say it's clearly the best, but it's definitely, criminally underrated, there's loads of people who just think 8 mile is only the film. A hidden gem for sure.
I got every ingredient All I need is the courage Like I already got the beat All I need is the words Got the urge Suddenly its a surge Suddenly a new burst of energy has occurred I'm no longer scared now I'm free as a bird
+Ryan692 The first time I ever heard this song was on your piano cover. Just listened to this for the first time and I can tell you you've done an amazing job to make it fit on the piano that I think I like your version better!
Ryan692 its better then lose yourself. Eminem murdered this song like he does anything he gets on. But this is my top 5 best songs of all time from eminem or any artist.
Lowkey one of the best Em song. Insane flow and cadence, incredible storytelling and rhymes. Just think about how hard is to rhyme sentences witch are actually connected to each other but keeping the same cadence for 6 minutes... its godlike. Easily top5.
The train horn at the beginning always reminds of my childhood, an actual train arriving with a load of nostalgia releasing this song in my head. Thanks for this masterpiece!
Same here, it reminds me of when I was a teenager and everyone was asleep while I was up in the AM upping up my computer skills. A train would always sound off in the distance.
The train passing is used as the beat for the song as well. It's an amazing song and one of my favorites of his with Stan, guilty conscience, and monster.
It's kinda sad just hardcore em fans know this song, I love Lose Yourself, but this this song is almost at Lose Yourslef's level, and it's not even close in popularity as that one. Oh well I guess lose yslf it's way more motivational and ""pop""
Yeah Lose Yourself was better tbh but this is way too underrated. I Love this Song So much But Somehow Dumbass people only Know Eminem's Most famous songs I mean this song is a 9/10 And Lose Yourself is 10/10 But even if it's 9 it Still didn't get half the fame *Lose Yourself* Did. But Great to see people coming back to this song too Such a Brilliant song.
@@SHADYLYRIX İ like this more, when i was ten i found eminem and started listening all his songs, i liked lose yourself too but this song is always in top 5 for me for some reason especially the last verse. this and sing for the moment i used to listen these 2 all day long eleven years ago hoooly shit. i didnt even know english back then but still got hooked.

This song helped me guarantee my future when I was a teen .. In my country, Iran, you have to take a national university exam to enter grad school competing with hundreds of thousands of students just like you to get the chance and be among the few hundreds who go to good public universities for free ... You only had 250 minutes to dump all the knowledge you got in 4 years of high school ... only one shot! It doesn't matter if you're sick that day or you get to seat under a window without a shade ... I was way behind my competition ... ranking 2000+ in preliminary exams just 3-6 weeks behind the final exam day ... The Judgment Day ... This song plus "Loose Yourself" and "Run Rabbit Run" helped me fight back to go after what I deserved ... I had listened to these songs Evey Day and every hour to motivate myself and not give up! I ended up ranking 121 among the Nation and entered the best school without having to pay a dime! 15 years from then ... I have realized another dream ... I'm here in U.S. , secured 3 graduate degrees so far and now working for a fortune 6 company ... NEVER EVER GIVE UP! A true story and a message from heart to all young people who want to change things for the better.
everytime when I feel like the world is pressing me down the moment I listen to this song it just pull me back to my fighting strength, I really love this song. thanks for the upload.
Eminem=RapGod, Slimshady=Psychopath, Marshall=Heartbreaker. This makes Eminem Special , so many different faces, lyrics and flows. He is just incredible
I am glad that Em' got me through my tough childhood ( I am 30 today)! I feel bad for kids nowadays who are going through the same thing and doesn't have someone as we had Em' back in time to count on! Kids if you are watching this, his songs can help you! At least they did help me not to commit suicide!
I really don't know why but I also associate the sound with my childhood. I don't know if it comes from this song or something deeper but it'd like a massive flood of flashback memories every time I hear it
I like that people relate whatever is their struggle to this song, nobody judges about what, why, how. We just now that you're going through the stuff and we back ourselves up.
Just one of many proofs Em is a rap genius. The flow on this has anyone who is sitting alone (or maybe not) sliding their head from side to side. And the realness and amount of the lyrics are completely off the chart. 6 fuckin' minute song! And it never drags, just steadily gains momentum. IN YOUR FACE!
I was listening to this when I was was bullied from guys from our village when I was about my 15-17 years old.. and it always gave me great feelings and feel of strenght.. Thank You Em from my heart..
There is no song by Eminem that I don't absolutely love! Nearly every one of his songs has a message that I can relate to in one way or another and the ones that don't, I may not be able to relate however I can understand to some extent what he is going through because of the way he puts it. He really knows how to relay a msg while entertaining the world. The song survival is definitely top three for me. Eminem is an absolute Beast! Much love and God bless. Eminem, thank you for sharing your talent with the world. Your songs have gotten me through so much I just only wish you knew!
@@humanbeing4492 that one is an absolute masterpiece, no other rapper would dare to write a fresh song that lyrical and funny (which is a diss towards the media) and put it as the opening song of the greatest hits album.
Man he spitting forever on this track. The lyrics are insane and it's like he could just rap forever. Look at how long he spits and makes it look so easy and listen to rappers today and it's just not even close with spitting actually lyrics versus damn near the whole song being the hook. Em is just a beast!
@@psychokiller5959 they have over produced, over-mixed, over-sampled music, that is generic and aged poorly. this song 8 Mile has at least unique train sample, i can´t think of ANY other song with sample like that. and the story telling is beyond anything. Eminem changed this genre, HU are not even close to the best era of Eminem.
@@jackcravford8744 Eminem forces his political views on his fans it's either they like Trump and they banned from listen to his music or they support Biden and can continue to listen to his music I could pick up several songs that have true meaning in Hollywood Undead Young off their first record Swan songs been to Hell off their second record we are off the third record Dark places off their fourth record I can't really think of anything that's going to go with 5 so I'm just going to skip five nightmare off of Empire volume 1 Monsters featuring killstation their sixth record I don't know they all came from broken homes but so did Eminem
@@psychokiller5959 8 mile, Rabbit Run and Lose Yourself does not have anything political. Speaking about that, Young is actually AGAINST the whole system and the music video is about taking down some kind of dictator. I am not a fan of political music either, but this song, Lose Yourself, Rabbit Run and lot of others are definition of this music at its finest. Insane story telling, no fillers, every line sounds unique. And the reason why i cant stand HU is cause they are forcing their ego through music, it sounds so toxic to me to hear how they are fucking haters and stuff. I guess it depends on the situation. I am not facing any haters and i don´t feel the way how they are mirroring it. I can much more relate to this song, 8 Mile cause it sounds ordinary like from real life situation. And let´s not start talk about the production, mixing, music itself, rhyme scheme and vocal delivery. HU sounds so poor and cheap compared to this song or Rabbit Run or Lose Yourself. You can´t even compare these songs with the best in hip hop music, cause they are one of the most unique songs out there. If not, then i am open to see similar songs like 8 Mile with unique train sample.
Everything about this song is just right - the tempo, the back sounds, the lyrics, the melody - everything. And also, it is very much relevant to me personally at this point in time.
This is simply one of the greatest songs ever in hip hop and just in general. It resonates with the human spirit in such a profound way and is beautifully written and conveyed. Raw emotion and pure motivation. Eminem at his absolute greatest.
Damn,I can't believe 8 mile road came out 17 yrs ago. Only 22. Anyhow,this is no doubt EM'S greatest hit he ever created. Wasn't popular on 8 mile road album like "lose yourself.". But,this is definitely up there like "Rabbit run."
So, I think we all know Eminem is a fucken genius. For me the Marshall Mathers LP is such a chimaera of a thing - screaming dark poetry into the formless void; a shot of adrenaline and vitriol straight to the fucken heart. But having been given the creative opportunity to step away from himself and to get outside his own mind, Eminem's work on 8 Mile, through (amongst other things) its ability to remain separate and controlled, achieves a kind of universality greater than his more directly personal work (which, though brilliant, carries the injury of his proximity to it). Just that small step of separation between the art and the actuality allows Em's 8 Mile work an incredible freedom, and (in my humble opinion, obviously) makes it amongst the best work he has ever done. I love the whole soundtrack, but Rabbit Run is flawless.
I'm not gonna lie I've been playing bottom of the barrel 4A football and when I just get passed over by some of the coaches or when I can't get my shit down I get pissed and this song is so god damn relatable. That feeling when you get rejected it eats at you and unless you know how to get pissed enough to push yourself to the brink to get better it will devour you.
I'm from Mexico, I started to hear and try to sing this song since 2016-2017 those days where so hard, I lived in a dangerous neighborhood and got a lot of pressure because my divorce... a lot of things happened to me but... I could make my life better... so much better :)
I only wish I could thank him in person. Grew up on Eminem.. Little kid from India.....feelin this shit. Grew up on it and jus happen to talk this way. The world will mourn this man when he's gone... Thank you sir.
I remember when the movie first came out. I was 16 & after me n my boyz watched it in the theaters, it changed our life. Everybody was battling again & shit. We blasted this track all day especially the instrumental. Those were the days.
This was the day I ran away from home... "I'm sorry momma, but I'm not following your footsteps, I'm making my own" That's the day I couldn't go back to my home... I was in an abusive household, I know every word from this song. He gave me a reason to live when I wanted to die. "Don't be afraid to make mistakes and loose everything you have because when you have nothing you have everything to gain." - That's what I learned from this song. That's how I was able to make the leap and change everything I had wrong in my life. Now I'm happily living on my own, on my way to graduating :-) no more violence in my life.
This song held me down through the worst times, it’s almost funny, listening to this song now, everything I ever felt turned out to be okay and I ended up making it in my own lane. I still have so much to go but I walked my own damn mile to this song. 🔥🔥
is anyone listening to the song in 2024 :))

everytime when I feel like the world is pressing me down the moment I listen to this song it just pull me back to my fighting strength, I really love this song. thanks for the upload.
Phila Mahlobo this song has led me thru the darkest and most stressed out period in my life. Eminem and Tupac got me thru some serious shit.
And me
Eminem=RapGod, Slimshady=Psychopath, Marshall=Heartbreaker. This makes Eminem Special , so many different faces, lyrics and flows. He is just incredible
I am glad that Em' got me through my tough childhood ( I am 30 today)!
I feel bad for kids nowadays who are going through the same thing and doesn't have someone as we had Em' back in time to count on!
Kids if you are watching this, his songs can help you!
At least they did help me not to commit suicide!
From 2002 to 2020, this shit still pops 🔥
Probably his best song of all time
Super underrated
+Wayne Waldron You clearly haven't listened to all of his music hahaha.
its my favourite song
its Eminem best song for sure thou
JoseRufus In your opinion.
That railroad sound at the beginning was a lot of our childhoods.
Especially if u grew up on the worse side of the tracks if you know what I mean
Grew up an half hour north of Detroit. I hear train tracks all the time at night and have for years.
I live in Detroit and i'm addicted to the sound of the railroad. All through my childhood to the point where now i live almost right on train tracks
I really don't know why but I also associate the sound with my childhood. I don't know if it comes from this song or something deeper but it'd like a massive flood of flashback memories every time I hear it
Or the wrong edge of the railing
I like that people relate whatever is their struggle to this song, nobody judges about what, why, how. We just now that you're going through the stuff and we back ourselves up.
good point, facts
I still get chills listening to this guy,truly an amazing mind
P
Just one of many proofs Em is a rap genius. The flow on this has anyone who is sitting alone (or maybe not) sliding their head from side to side. And the realness and amount of the lyrics are completely off the chart. 6 fuckin' minute song! And it never drags, just steadily gains momentum.
IN YOUR FACE!
Tim Russell you actually do deserve a cookie for that
HAHA
I was listening to this when I was was bullied from guys from our village when I was about my 15-17 years old.. and it always gave me great feelings and feel of strenght.. Thank You Em from my heart..
i get bullied too
I wish y'all the best career and life in the future. Listen to Legacy by Eminem. It will hit home for you guys
If lose yourself is 100/100 🔥
Than 8 mile is also 100/100🔥
If this doesn't motivate you nothing will
It's like a really long but great poem
man you gay as fuk
man you gay as fuk
+Mohamed Sy fuck* & if you're going to cuss someone out at least fix your grammar 😉.
+Mohamed Sy nigga i got my gramar
Nigga shut the fuk up with yo gay ass
this lyrics maan. dude is so talanted it amazes me
Here I'm again three years later found my comment. My english was awful:D
Ikr
this song is way better than lose yourself
There is no song by Eminem that I don't absolutely love! Nearly every one of his songs has a message that I can relate to in one way or another and the ones that don't, I may not be able to relate however I can understand to some extent what he is going through because of the way he puts it. He really knows how to relay a msg while entertaining the world. The song survival is definitely top three for me. Eminem is an absolute Beast! Much love and God bless. Eminem, thank you for sharing your talent with the world. Your songs have gotten me through so much I just only wish you knew!
Fack

@@humanbeing4492 that one is an absolute masterpiece, no other rapper would dare to write a fresh song that lyrical and funny (which is a diss towards the media) and put it as the opening song of the greatest hits album.
Look up masterpiece in the dictionary and this song will pop up
Manuel L thats not the song man, I swear that I don't have a gun, happy to see another Sunday mourning..
Man he spitting forever on this track. The lyrics are insane and it's like he could just rap forever. Look at how long he spits and makes it look so easy and listen to rappers today and it's just not even close with spitting actually lyrics versus damn near the whole song being the hook. Em is just a beast!
Hollywood Undead is way better they have way more then he does
@@psychokiller5959 they have over produced, over-mixed, over-sampled music, that is generic and aged poorly. this song 8 Mile has at least unique train sample, i can´t think of ANY other song with sample like that. and the story telling is beyond anything.
Eminem changed this genre, HU are not even close to the best era of Eminem.
@@jackcravford8744 Eminem forces his political views on his fans it's either they like Trump and they banned from listen to his music or they support Biden and can continue to listen to his music I could pick up several songs that have true meaning in Hollywood Undead Young off their first record Swan songs been to Hell off their second record we are off the third record Dark places off their fourth record I can't really think of anything that's going to go with 5 so I'm just going to skip five nightmare off of Empire volume 1 Monsters featuring killstation their sixth record I don't know they all came from broken homes but so did Eminem
@@psychokiller5959 8 mile, Rabbit Run and Lose Yourself does not have anything political. Speaking about that, Young is actually AGAINST the whole system and the music video is about taking down some kind of dictator.
I am not a fan of political music either, but this song, Lose Yourself, Rabbit Run and lot of others are definition of this music at its finest. Insane story telling, no fillers, every line sounds unique.
And the reason why i cant stand HU is cause they are forcing their ego through music, it sounds so toxic to me to hear how they are fucking haters and stuff.
I guess it depends on the situation. I am not facing any haters and i don´t feel the way how they are mirroring it. I can much more relate to this song, 8 Mile cause it sounds ordinary like from real life situation. And let´s not start talk about the production, mixing, music itself, rhyme scheme and vocal delivery. HU sounds so poor and cheap compared to this song or Rabbit Run or Lose Yourself. You can´t even compare these songs with the best in hip hop music, cause they are one of the most unique songs out there.
If not, then i am open to see similar songs like 8 Mile with unique train sample.
@@jackcravford8744 I'm not talkin about Eminem's old music I'm talking about his recent music
Best rhyme scheme ever
I started dreaming. This song gives me a lot of strength.
This song is so fuckin' relatable
go and fuck yourself
+Filippa Wallander oh shit lol
Kavaun Wilson is not funny if the person that rote that could do better i want him to do that
+Filippa Wallander who
totally
One of the GREATEST Rap songs EVER made!!!!!
This song might be his best ever ever ever. Legendary
one of the most underrated songs in the history of hip hop music
It's relatable and it's got a hungry motive behind it. This song is his best my opinion.
One of his best
K
?i dont even know if i meant to comment
+RavRaynRose damnnn you dont know shit
Sing for the moment is the best hands down.
Everything about this song is just right - the tempo, the back sounds, the lyrics, the melody - everything. And also, it is very much relevant to me personally at this point in time.
I will be seating on my couch and Every time I put this song on my iPhone my smart watch is asking if I want to record my workout 💪
Most definitely one of his most Underrated songs, this Song changed My Life, we will always Love you Em 💔
THE LEGEND
Yessssss ikr
Today is my first day,
Listening to 8 mile,
Eminem rippin' to shreds,
Spitten' rhymes; he is dialed,
In to the beat, every which way.
Woaa
Ive been an eminem fan for so long and i hate to admit it that I've heard this masterpiece for the first time 😭😭
An uplifting song for hustlers on not to give up. This song is something else.
it's 2016 April 26 and I'm still with you marshal Mathers I ain't gonna let ur music fall but get picked right back up
Still slaps hard. Who else is still here 2022?
Literally one of Em's best joints.
Did the production himself.
Chanelling Jimmy 100%
What a masterpiece.
Seriously how can anyone dislike this masterpiece?
one of my favorite beats of all time!!! Amazing!
GoodxJ this is my favourite beat not one of my favourite
GoodxJ i agrie
Rap god
This is simply one of the greatest songs ever in hip hop and just in general. It resonates with the human spirit in such a profound way and is beautifully written and conveyed. Raw emotion and pure motivation. Eminem at his absolute greatest.
Damn,I can't believe 8 mile road came out 17 yrs ago. Only 22. Anyhow,this is no doubt EM'S greatest hit he ever created. Wasn't popular on 8 mile road album like "lose yourself.". But,this is definitely up there like "Rabbit run."
So, I think we all know Eminem is a fucken genius. For me the Marshall Mathers LP is such a chimaera of a thing - screaming dark poetry into the formless void; a shot of adrenaline and vitriol straight to the fucken heart. But having been given the creative opportunity to step away from himself and to get outside his own mind, Eminem's work on 8 Mile, through (amongst other things) its ability to remain separate and controlled, achieves a kind of universality greater than his more directly personal work (which, though brilliant, carries the injury of his proximity to it). Just that small step of separation between the art and the actuality allows Em's 8 Mile work an incredible freedom, and (in my humble opinion, obviously) makes it amongst the best work he has ever done. I love the whole soundtrack, but Rabbit Run is flawless.
I'm not gonna lie I've been playing bottom of the barrel 4A football and when I just get passed over by some of the coaches or when I can't get my shit down I get pissed and this song is so god damn relatable. That feeling when you get rejected it eats at you and unless you know how to get pissed enough to push yourself to the brink to get better it will devour you.
I'm from Mexico, I started to hear and try to sing this song since 2016-2017 those days where so hard, I lived in a dangerous neighborhood and got a lot of pressure because my divorce... a lot of things happened to me but... I could make my life better... so much better :)
I only wish I could thank him in person.
Grew up on Eminem..
Little kid from India.....feelin this shit.
Grew up on it and jus happen to talk this way.
The world will mourn this man when he's gone...
Thank you sir.
I remember when the movie first came out. I was 16 & after me n my boyz watched it in the theaters, it changed our life. Everybody was battling again & shit. We blasted this track all day especially the instrumental. Those were the days.
I love this song. It explains what everyone feels like
Fire, one of his best songs.
imagine what rap would be like today if em never got signed
Tyler Ross if Eminem never wrote songs hip-hop would be nothing
No thanks. Won't nope I ain't gonna think of that hell
I feel like he'd be either an underground rapper or dead (either way I don't wanna think about it)
everyboday say "thank you dr. dre"
With or without him the modern rap is shit
This is in my one of my favorite Eminem songs brings me so much memories growin up in my life....
IMO, this is his best song. There’s so much hunger and determination in it.
Secretly the best track on the album...well....maybe not so secret. Love this shit.
This was the day I ran away from home... "I'm sorry momma, but I'm not following your footsteps, I'm making my own" That's the day I couldn't go back to my home... I was in an abusive household, I know every word from this song. He gave me a reason to live when I wanted to die.
"Don't be afraid to make mistakes and loose everything you have because when you have nothing you have everything to gain." - That's what I learned from this song.
That's how I was able to make the leap and change everything I had wrong in my life. Now I'm happily living on my own, on my way to graduating :-) no more violence in my life.
Better than Lose yourself in my opinion
agreed both good songs but 8 mile takes the cake.
When i ever hear this song it lets me think about life and cancel out the noise in the background and its pretty much better than lose yourself
By far!
Completely agree!
Lyrically yes, and beat is very fire too... But i don't know, lose yourself is special
This song held me down through the worst times, it’s almost funny, listening to this song now, everything I ever felt turned out to be okay and I ended up making it in my own lane. I still have so much to go but I walked my own damn mile to this song. 🔥🔥
It's sad that many people don't even know this song exist
Love the raw piano outro.
