to listen to the album as it was intended

for example, on Reach Beyond The Sun
i don't like I, Saturnine as much as Reach Beyond The Sun but I, Saturnine leads into it very well
if i got rid of it, it would go from The Mean Spirits, Breathing into Reach Beyond The Sun awkwardly

well I'm talking about a song that you really would be better off without

like it wouldn't hurt to just pluck it off and it would sound ok to jump from one track to the next
but I can see why you'd keep the albums intact

Because some people aren't retarded like you and actually care about an album as a whole instead of going "WELL I DON'T LIKE THAT PART SO I'LL JUST GET RID OF IT".

removing something you don't like from an album isn't retarded

some people listen to their music shuffled, others listen to their music album by album

I do both but I'd much rather have a slightly skipped album than having to suffer a song's worth

Then you're a f*** dumbass and you're missing the whole point of listening to an album as a whole.

I'm a dumbass for deleting songs from an album to have a better experience?
yeah, ok totally because you HAVE to listen to the weakest tracks because they meant it to be listened that way

idgaf how they meant me to listen to it, I want to listen to it the way I want to because I'm the one listening to it

holy s*** is that so hard to grasp

if you have an album that has songs you need to skip 100% of the time, it is a bad album and you should get rid of it

You're listening it to the way you want to, not the way it was intended to be.

Therefore, you're listening to it wrong. That's not a hard concept to grasp, and there's no need to get mad at me. You can listen to albums however you want, I guess. You just have to accept that you're not listening to them properly.

why not keep the goods songs and play them in shuffle or something?

and it's not like I delete songs often, most albums I have are intact but only when I REALLY don't like the song I delete it, the tracks I like less are rated slightly less than the other tracks

calling someone a dumbass for having a better experience than if they were to listen to it "properly" is completely out of place
music is art, art is meant to be enjoyed by the observer, I'm the observer, I get to listen to what I want to listen to and how I want to listen to it

I never said you couldn't listen to things how you want to. In fact, if you actually knew how to read, you'd see that I said you can listen to albums however you want.

You just need to accept that you're not listening to them properly. The artist made the album as something that should be listened to as a whole. They didn't make it as something that you should listen to a few tracks from and delete the rest.

You can accept that you're not listening to an album properly if you're only listening to a few tracks from it, or you can keep telling yourself how smart you are for experiencing something incorrectly. Either way, shut the f*** up. I'm sick of your s***.
