Yes, because any smart person could tell that is what I was implying, despite it being not relevant to this thread in any way.
This would be why everyone calls you an idiot, cos you either misinterpret things for attention, or misinterpret things cos you're an idiot.
Either way, you're acting like an idiot, so stop it. This is a reasonably well flowing forum, don't try to pollute it please.

Are we on the same page on that part?

And as far as everyone calling me an idiot, I have lost track of the number of pm's I have received asking why I even waste time arguing with you.

One you sent yourself.
Originally posted by Alpha Centaurisee? right there. If you go back and look at the past posts you will see I indeed said that, but you would have to be an IDIOT to not see that I was joking. I even posted a smily to reiterate that I was joking, but you choose to think I was being serious. You started the drama here and are now turning it around on me.
Yes, I'm full of shit, according to the guy who still doesn't get a simple concept.-AC
Nice try. 👇
I swear I dropped it and you came back hours later and continued it, after everyone had clearly moved on. I pointed out your comment wasn't necessary, nowhere did I assume whether you were joking or not.
I said people are idiots, you didn't have to reply to that, but you did. I didn't START anything, you made the initial comment, then returned, and now you have your drama, like you have to have in every thread, cos nobody cares or pays attention to you if you don't.

Birds of a feather flock together, generally. Speaking, but I would agree, why are you even here arguing? Why are you not participating in the thread that had moved on until you brought it back?
Do you have that little to contribute to musical debate?

It was painfully obvious that you were referring to us, and you are now trying to squirm out of it. I didnt take it offensively, it made me laugh, in fact.

I chose to focus on the discussion, you were arguing that movies have plots, that you didn't see the same with albums. I was trying to find out why, so I glossed over your comment cos that wasn't what I was interested in.
If you knew what a concept album was, you'd understand, but you said "I don't understand, but ok, that's your way.". Whatever, what's done is done.

Yes, and? When did I deny referring to you? It took you about a page to grasp my point, it should have taken one post.
Right back at me? What, the comment about having little to contribute to musical debate? This is what, you're tenth post here...ever? I'm one of the members who has contributed most to this music forum, probably ever. Not saying that's a big deal, just pointing out how needless your comment was.
Odd.
Anyway, those listenable albums, eh?

Originally posted by Alpha CentauriI know what a concept album is, its just that I dont take music as seriously as you do. I listen to music to relax, not to recognize a plot or storyline. just like some people watch a martial arts movie just to see the action, not for a story.

And I am not saying I know alot about music, I never claimed to be Kurt fecking Loder. I have no doubt in my mind that you know more about music than I do. But that doesnt mean you have the right to question me posting here.Right back at me? What, the comment about having little to contribute to musical debate?

Anyways, yes, back to listenable albums. Nevermind by Nirvana is an easy listen, no skipping there for me.

Should this not just be called the well rounded albums thread?
Well, not unnecessarily. For instance, I think Disintegration by The Cure is a perfectly well rounded album, however, I won't say it's the most "listenable" album I own. It's not because of bad tracks (which there are none of) but because of the mood and atmosphere it sets and it's something you have to be in the mood for, otherwise, at least IMO, I don't see it being very accessible album. That's my interpretation anyway.

Nice 3!
Personally I think if you have to skip songs you probally bought a nickleback album or some other craptastic group who writes songs to be on the radio.
I don't own an album where i have to skip a song, but sometimes I will put certain songs on that I want to listen to. Some better examples are....
