i mean while i agree with you, i gotta do a whole album. they tell a story. even if the artist (publisher, musician, recording engineer bullshit whatever whoever) isn’t good enough to tell a story intentionally there’s a story in the album.

but like i said, i’m a musician. i’ve sat through an entire concert looking like i was watching 2001 on acid for the first time just muttering “his hands. his hands.” the entire time while the drummer did things no percussionist should and no other drummer can. there’s subtexts that we don’t even know we’re putting into our own songs sometimes.
