Seanchan 09/15/22 10:46:49 PM #18:	Woman (in mirror) Objects in Space For Mayor in Splitsville The Child We Lost 1963 Stay Happy There Extraordinary Dinner Party 35 Woman (reading) First Reactions After Falling Through the Ice Scenes from Highways 1981-2009 Hudsonville, MI 1956 Sorry, this one's only getting two listens this week. I did sit down and pay more attention to the lyrics, which really revealed the absolute DENSITY of this album lyrically. Like, there's hardly any choruses at all, which is just tough for me because there's nothing to latch onto. So many of the songs just start and it's a 3.5-4.5 minute barrage of story, which would be fine except I find the singing to be kind of atrocious, especially when he got into that yell/scream range. I also did pick up on some of that interweaving of lyrics/themes/whatever between some of the songs. Woman (in mirror) was a fairly easy choice as #1. It didn't grate on me, had a nice little beat, and I did enjoy that lyric "tiny dots on an endless timeline". I already mentioned how a kind of liked Objects in Space on my first listen and that remained the case, despite it being spoken word rather than singing. The middle songs had some good lyrics or poignancy. The ones at the bottom had too much yell/scream for my tastes at were kind of hard to get through. Just to be clear, I'm not a fan of this. I'm glad to have given it a shot but I cannot envision myself ever listening to this again. --- "That was unnecessarily dramatic". - NY Mets motto (courtesy of InnerTubeHero) Congratulations to azuarc, the guru of gurus and winner of GotD 2020! <cite>Seanchan posted [p:968066475] in Rank the T...
