But, you know, there is not two without three and then here is also the third and final version of Love Lockdown always on kanyeuniversecity.com. It seems that the third version is also born by the comments left by the fans after the first post he was made to hear the song. Or at least you can guess from the one who writes the same artist:

Your prayers have been answered! There’sa new version of Love Lockdown coming. We used new Taiko drums and I re-sung it… it’s now being Mastered….

The song will be available on iTunes with its splendid cover you see on his head that post. To all intents and purposes is also the first anticipation of new album of Kanye West.
