The best listening experience is to find an album you like and listen to the whole thing.
Anything else imo is like looking at the corner of a painting and ignoring the rest.
Sometimes that one brush stroke is really good, but I really do not give a shit about another still life painting.
Or always.
Yeah, always.
You’ve missed out on thousands of hours of bliss.
That’s what Sting said too.
Sometimes yeah, but other times it’s really just one song. For example, I really like the song “Ruler of Everything” by Tally Hall, but when I tried listening to more of their stuff I mostly didn’t like it. There are also many intermediate cases. I can confidently say “Eh el Ibara” by Masar is my favorite music ever. As for the album it’s from, “El 'Aysh Wel Mehl”, it’s a solid album, maybe in my top 12. Same for the band in general. The leader/composer Hazem Shaheen might be ranked a bit higher, like maybe my 6th or 7th favorite musician, because I also like some of the other songs he made without this band, like “Horse of Darwish”. But there are more instances where I’ll want to listen to just my 1 favorite song rather than to my 12th favorite album entirely.
But if listening to an entire album was necessary 100% of the time, artists wouldn’t release singles.
