  - oh look, there's Do It Again ... nice. :) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 21, 13:12 1
    - Oh, I love shuffle. I'm just saying, you *could* listen to an album in its entirety, to get a feel for it. -- nm - mara Oct 21, 13:13
"The Fragile" or "Downward Spiral" by NIN or "Live through this" by Hole. - Mel Profit Oct 21, 13:09 4

  - I'm just gonna agree with these guys -- nm - Lon_cHaneY Oct 21, 13:22
  - Yeah, there are different kinds of albums. Sometimes the last thing that is done before release is deciding what order the songs will be in. - Spawn Oct 21, 13:16
Springsteen - Darkness on the Edge of Town (and if you haven't seen the HBO Documentary about it, you should). -- nm - pmb Oct 21, 13:05 1

- not anymore, for the "shuffle" generation. -- nm - znufrii Oct 21, 13:03 2
  - well, they *aren't*, but i bet most artists still spend a lot time choosing which songs to use and which order to put them for an overall experience -- nm - Andie Oct 21, 13:04 1
    - there's a difference, in my mind at least, between choosing a selection of songs to put on an album - znufrii Oct 21, 13:09
