#sequencing 👏 makes 👏 or 👏 breaks 👏 an 👏 album 👏

thank you for tha review. it's really interesting to break the songs down into music and then lyrics. i agree with a lot of what you said: it's nice, but somehow feels like less than what they could've done with the genre and with every track (maybe their producer? mixer? editor? person is to blame). can i ask (i know you didnt get a clear story arc, but) is there a different track order you could recommend? bc i also feel like its a bit all over the place atm <3<3

Hi there! Thanks so much for your feedback on my review of Keep On Ramblin' -- I was really wondering what people thought! It seems like I have a lot of unpopular opinions about the album, so I'm glad to hear that it resonated with someone.

As for a track reorder, here's what I would recommend (without any consideration of the story):

Keep on Ramblin'

Forever Ain't Long

Return To Me

You Made Me Blue

Right Kind of Trouble

Every Light

Sweet Escape

Velvet Sky

Restless Man

Ain't No Tellin'

Rethinking this track order was actually really hard -- the whole album is the same tone for so long that that it's tough to create any kind of dynamic experience just from what we're given? I'm not totally happy with this but I hope it works for you.

I've added the album in this new order to my Radio Company playlist on Youtube if you want to listen to it this way! My reordered version of Vol. 1 is there too, but no one's ever asked me to re-sequence Vol. 2 so that one is unchanged. Happy listening <3
