what i mean by this is how Capitol infamously (well, infamously among hardcore Beach Boys fans and Pet Sounds ‘scholars’, at least) put out the very Beach Boys hits compilation shortly after the release of Pet Sounds only for months later for Good Vibrations to come out and absolutely eclipsing the hits on that compilation.

And probably the most famous and obvious example, the best selling “Their Greatest Hits” by The Eagles not having Hotel California (at least not on the original release).

Any other instances of this amusing phenomena (do doo do do doo)?

Rating: 9.5/10

Favourite Track: Click Clack Symphony. + Nightingale Lane.

Least Favourite Track: Goodbye Henry

This was absolutely amazing! A few lacking tracks here and there though I reckon the worst was no worse than a 7/10. The style of the album is just amazing and as someone who doesn’t listen to much pop I loved this so so much. I initially decided to listen to this because I saw that Hans Zimmer collaborated on one of the tracks, and got much more than I ever thought I was. This is a must have cinematic pop experience with a beautiful story.

The sound of this album is just so good. I love how some of the songs sound jazzy and have that jazz inspiration, but how a lot of them also have orchestral inspiration and that sound really really epic. RAYE’s vocals are just absolutely beautiful and amazing and I love them so much, this was a really big part of the album for me.

Standout Track:

Click Clack Symphony: Rule #1 of music, Hans Zimmer cooks up. His orchestration mixed with RAYE’s vocals is absolutely incredible and I want more collaborations between them. It just sounds so good, you have to hear it for yourself.

Nothing I would change about this album. Amazing

So so good, a must listen for everyone.
