songs with segues are the worst what's wrong with you

fucking genius

No actually, what's wrong with you?
>song has 2 fade outs
>every single track on the album fades in and out
>>65417836
Fucking Pet Sounds
>song transitions into "it ain't me"

Revolver too

My biggest fucking pet peeve. For me. If a song fades out, it cannot be a perfect album.
>>65421108
what if a fade out is such an integral part of a song that when the band is playing it life it actually ends the song with fading out?
>>65420951
>>65421020
To be fair, this wasn't even remotely close to as overdone in the 60s as it is today.
>>65421138
Name me one single song that sounds better with a fade out instead of an actual ending.

I can't stand this. It's lazy and pathetic.
This is the reason I refuse to acknowledge Pet Sounds as some sort of masterpiece of songwriting. No competent songwriter has that much trouble ending a song that nearly every track fades out during a repetitive outro.

Genesis' Supper's Ready NEVER had another ending but a fade out. It's just the way the song is. If you end a 20 fucking minute epic that defines your band with a fade out, and you put in the effort to replicate the fade out live, it is a valid artistic decision, just as any "real" ending.

>The best part of the song is a 7-second interlude that never gets referenced musically and nothing else on the album sounds like it
>>65421162
Really? I actually haven't heard an album that does this in a while.

Its a good and bad thing.
The bad being that if i listen to them seperately, they just cut off or jump start
>>65421278
Invalid, they even end that chorus properly earlier in the song, so they know how to.
>>65421279
Having the outro go to a crescendo would be equally effective.

>it's bad when i watch a scene out of a movie and it ends abruptly with no resolution
>>65421266
Pet Sounds doesn't use fade ins
>>65421738
Of course it does!

>refuse to acknowledge Pet Sounds as a masterpiece because of fucking fade-outs
Imagine actually being this close-minded
>song ends by continuosly transisioning into the following track
>the entire album is like this
I can't take seriously an artist who does this
>>65421328
>Trying to listen to favorites from Songs For the Deaf
You're absolutely right
>>65417836
>song ends by just fading out
>with two drummers
I get that fading out a track is lazy in most situations but in some cases it can be musically or even thematically appropriate, just like abrupt endings.
Y'all mention Pet Sounds but God Only Knows is actually a perfect example of a well-earned fade-out, you don't just set up a perpetual round and end it

>crazy technical sax solo starts
>song fades out
>ill never fade away
>fades away
>>65421200
Are you fucking kidding me?
>>65421284
What song does this?
It depends, when it works it works a really slow fade out while same thing gets played over and over is a good closer, sometimes
