Some of my favorite album sides where songs bleed into each other. This is a major reason I prefer listening to records and the inconvenience as it forces me to have a few drinks and listen through.
I also feel like these songs would empower me to approach a drunken woman in a seedy bar, tell her about my AES+ purchases and that she would see into the depths of my soul.
For, while the tale of how we suffer, and how we are delighted, and how we may triumph is never new, it always must be heard. There isn't any other tale to tell, it's the only light we've got in all this darkness.
