>Almost always preferring the first half of an album because of my short attention span rather than having a balanced opinion of the songs
Should I just kms /mu/
Is it by ratio or interval?
Do you lose focus after a certain time, or do you only listen to the first half of the album regardless of its length?
If its the first, just listen to EPs.

I listen to the whole thing but passively towards the end so I don't really take it in. Whatever the reason I just always have a bias for the top half
>>63463069
I can relate
what if you start an album in the middle
>>63463183
I do that from time to time but it just feels so wrong
I find myself listening to an album on a 30 minute drive, so I only ever hear the first half
Yesterday I re-listened to Keep It Like A Secret and sang along to the first 2/3 and literally didn't recognise the last few songs
whats kms?

Not who you replied to, but I used to have this same problem
Try and find a minute mark that you notice yourself losing interest in the album, and just stop. Later go back to that song you left off on and just start from there, do this as much as you need to until you start to appreciate the whole thing more, and can sit through it attentively the whole way through. Also, try to listen to shorter albums. the sweet spot for me is right at 45 minutes, which thankfully is a pretty average time for albums, but maybe yours is closer to 30, which is fine. Hope this helps

I'm not op but I have the same problem. Thanks for the advice!

I really was just expecting to get put on blast ITT, but you've actually given me some good advice. thanks!
If you can pay attention to a whole movie, I see no reason why you can't pay attention to an album.

And yeah, I notice all my favourite albums are shorties, 45m usually. Anything an hour plus feels like a double album to me and has to be litsened to in installments usually

I have the same problem. It takes me 20 minutes to walk to uni so I always end up liking the first 3-4 tracks of any album more than the rest because they grow on me after listening to them way too much,

spoiler alert, dick
Start an album, finish it, then relisten to it in reverse order. Refresher.

Same here man. 2009 hyundai sonata. All the hip kids have their wireless blueteeth shit. I want to use Spotify too. I want to leave my CDs safe at my apartment. I want to feel loved.

With a movie, you have both audio and visual stimulation.
>>63463874
Plus they're intentionally 'gripping' and have an engaging narrative
>>63463894
I mean, to be fair REALLY good albums grip me the whole way through.
But most albums I just sort of drift off towards the end, even if I'm enjoying it.
just listen to a few songs at a time you dolt nobody's forcing you to listen to the whole thing at once

Well The Plan to Sidewalk is a really good string of songs. From Bad Light onwards it gets a little iffy.
