George Michael is one of the best songwriters of all time, pop or otherwise.

The EP is the perfect format for rock/pop music and most full-lengths would be better if they were EPs.

i really, genuinely enjoy yoko ono's art

You would, blatantly wrong person.

I don't get the hate for LPs, I find them to be the perfect length for a music fix. There are some great EPs but they leave me wanting more more often than not.

People who just listen to singles are fucking jackoffs with some kind of developmental disorder. Bruce is ultimate proof of that.

Most studio albums feature songs with a shared theme, mood or sound, which makes sense because songs in most studio albums come out of the same sessions, it makes more sense to put them onto one album than it does to scatter them about on different albums.

I find that even a subpar studio album will flow better than a compilation of a band's very best songs that are more jarringly different from each other because they come from different eras, studios, lineups, producers or whatever. I'm not a big fan of compilations unless they're unquestionably for singles artists and even then I'd usually rather listen to a song in it's original context.

Yes studio albums are a collection of songs but by being on that album those songs are forever connected, they're like video games in that sense. While there are many games that take place in one big overworld or have a plot that ties everything together, a lot of video games are just a random collection of levels which are greatly varied environments with different gameplay mechanics, so why don't they ever make video games in a popular series that are a "greatest levels" compilation? Maybe because it would be awkward to be in an 8 bit side scrolling level one moment and a 3D open ended world the next.

Albums are overrated, it just a collection of songs most of the time, why people always need to make such a cult out of it?
