    ha! these dudes like to call out others for doing the same but pretend like it never happens to them or that it's more special when it does!

    cant trust a thing they say.

    I admit that the Lucy concept is kinda of a cliche but the execution of the record in general it's flawless and the social criticism brillant

    bickering with you guys aside, i agree with literally all of this and have pointed them each out at different times.

    i just think the highlights are more impressive, and that the album works to an extent that you don't

    this is perhaps @Narsh's biggest failure as a music fan/critic. he has very deep convictions and sees deviation from those as a failure on his part. it leads him to bend over backwards (like he is in this thread) to give critical weight to things that don't have/need any

    or you're ignoring everything i said up until this point to make a comment about how you perceive me

    i know all my problems with TPAB very well. dont need to recite them to you atm. especially if you're gonna overlook the times i already have. like 3 seconds ago when i quoted swizz's post

    have fun arguing not a single song works on this for the rest of your life tho!

    lmaooooo :'(

    edit: and i stick to my "deep convictions" oh man this is too good :'(

    you could take the advice in stride and try to be a better critic...or throw a bunch of crying emojis at me. your call.

    Digging your convictions so deep that you get attached and stick to them is not a positive trait.

    Different topic:
    Also want to express annoyance at Thriller being bandied about like it's the pinnacle of pop music. It's not even the best MJ album.

    no you're right i completely agree with you that i borrow your vernacular in my reviews! and i greatly appreciate you telling me to get better at what you're doing currently (not 1 song works on TPAB and thats final!!)

    go on

    s--- this is getting a tad personal, dudettes.

    lol impressed your response is just enough to rebut my assertion, but falls short of sharing who these prominent critics are you respect that also hated tpab... dont wanna go on the record, i get it!

    kinda reminds me of joe mccarthy refusing to provide any of the names of the 200 “known communists” who'd infiltrated the state dept TBQH

    and if ANYTHING wpg was saying about "sticking to convictions" too deeply had any merit, I wouldnt be able to critique TPAB the way I do currently vs how much I liked it when it dropped.

    but..nvm. once @WPG has a narrative set, he sticks with it so its kinda pointless

    i'm leaving s80 for good later today, but while you sit and stew about how i could possibly insult your delicate sensibilities, consider that my thing about your convictions is actual, earnest advice. good luck.
