I agree and love the beginning of Something Special as well. So much care put into this thing.stip wrote:it's great. And that interlude into Running absurdly makes for a great transitionHomeboyd wrote:The Interlude is amazing. I mean, I can't rank it as a song but I damn sure wish they spent another day in the studio and made it into a proper one.

It's a pretty great run of songs...Vitalogy is also close but, Pry To is a combo breaker lol.Blenheim Augustine wrote:Scared of Fear -> WFS is the best 7 song run since Once -> Oceans. Tell me why I’m wrong.

Regarding earlier comments about Ed’s story and sequencing remarks, and this being a concept album… seems it could be Ed’s relationship history, or Jill’s, or a mix of both maybe.

R/R ...Ed & Cameron center... guitars overhead...Mike crashes center for start of solo and then pans all over as it progresses...Sounds otherworldly
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…
