No, the logic is: anyone who thinks songs are higher quality because they are played less is an idiot.
Nobody's said that though.

He "implied it". Once again, go read the full thing in context this time.
Well you implied a lot of things yourself, so...
what are you implying?

if you've read them only once I don't think you can really get these posts, you might have to start again
if RM doesn't hold my interest anymore I'm not sure it's worth the time. There's lots of other message boards I could be posting on.
deny all you want but if you're still here that means you're still a bit invested in this board
I still like reading the older posts.
still longing for that old, angry RM?

I love Riot Act. Arc should've been the first single.

Meh. Arc is just a tired reworking of Ave Maria.

After several listens, i've gotta say that I like it! It's a grower.

Liking it though makes me feel very dirty. Like pissing yourself on a cold winters day....you know it's wrong but it makes you feel warm for a little while.

Absolutely not. You inferred it.

There's a massive communication breakdown between you and many others here.

We've all implied it in every single one of our posts. There, you just implied it yourself. And so did I. There's no escaping this.

The 40 who are on the fence, stop fighting it. You know you love it!

Please show me.
I like Backspacer more than Riot Act.
I think the songs are higher quality on Riot Act ( technique, craft, depth)
I just happen to enjoy the upbeat and poppy nature of Backspacer in this case.

I can recognize quality even if I don't enjoy the end product that much. I recognize $5 pizzas are trash in comparison to a $15 Hungry Howies pizza but I usually prefer them for the cost/convenience.

Nowhere am I implying any of the nonsense you are saying I am.
There's the dog. You can't fake that stuff. Confess with your mouth.

OH, I see it now! It was hard to see because there wasn't a picture of a cat next to the post.

I'm looking forward to drunkenly singing along to this at a gig.

Any gig, not necessarily a PJ gig, will do.
