Changing Song Order On Albums.

I've never been the biggest fan of Riot Act, although it has plenty quality songs it never really did it for me. Not until I started tweaking the running order and since doing that it gets a lot of listens now. I was never comfortable with the running order of any album since No Code to be honest so I have them all on my Walkman playlists in this order now. My opinion of RA has gone from tolerance to I fucking love it and Binaural sounds much sweeter. One of my friends told me it was disrespectful to an artist to change their hard work but fuck it, I like Riot Act now!! Try any of these if you're as bored as I am waiting for June to arrive. I'm not even listening to boots at work this week!!! :o Avocado is far better this way too. Honestly!

    I believe you for some reason...

    but what about just keeping your music player on shuffle ?

    I did try that too and always knew what I wanted to hear next but it never came. These took ages to make me happy, don't knock me off my cloud :D Even Yield sounds better and I don't mind it's running order so much.

    I'm sure many will disagree, but I would like Alive as the final song on Ten. Same track order otherwise but just take Alive and put it last.

    I can't knock Ten in the slightest and I don't want it to sound like a complaint but if Wash was on there somewhere with Alive and Yellow Ledbetter up there last it would be the perfect album. Vitalogy and No Code are impeccably flawless!! :D
