I like overusing superlatives like “the best” because I seek to make my life as close to a series of breathtakingly beautiful experiences as I possibly can

Dark Side of the Moon would've been improved with Bernard Sumner writing the lyrics imo

I don’t know any of the lyrics on Dark Side Of The Moon, unless “I have become.............. comfortably numb” is one, but that feels probable

I'm gonna throw in this possibly controversial opinion:The Dark Side of the Moon is not one of the top 5 Pink Floyd albums

Never forget this classic thread:
TS: Prince or Bowie?
Ok, just stumbled across this shit-encrusted gem and like wow. Excepting the period from about April to December 2016, any comparison between these two artists is just asinine. But if you must compare it's like this: Anyone who favors Bowie is worse than Donald Trump as a human being and ought to have their ears sliced off because they obviously aren't fucking working

^Intentional exaggeration btw. I like Bowie but give me a fucking break. If we can't convince twentysomethings and younger of Prince's greatness we will have failed as a species

First step: stop harming your own case by pretending he had more than a half dozen songs worth a shit after 1989.

Prince and Bowie are both the kind of artists for whom Greatest Hits comps make a whole lot of sense.

this is right on the edge but the truth, the bonus album he tacked onto crystal ball, is at the very least close to great
after that pretty much nothing though 3121 has a lot going for it
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Monday, 14 January 2019 16:06 (five years ago) link
gold experience and the love symbol album are two of his absolute greatest but '95 and '92 both feel too old for the question you're asking

was merely pointing out that a song in 7 would seem by its very nature to disqualify it from accusations of being "bluesy garbage," which in this context I take to mean stock, trite, and predictable, but it's OK, I realize not everybody knows what they're talking about
― Paul Ponzi, Monday, 14 January 2019 18:03 (five years ago) link
it has a blues feel and there are tons of blues songs with dropped beats
