Do you like segues?

Personally I don't care much for segues as I play most albums on shuffle.

Which one of you orgers does like them?
And what is the best one in your opinion?

I don't like them cuz they make the albums less enjoyable.
And real rock'n'roll (or any kind of) albums don't need talkin' shit between the tracks.
Music speaks for itself - we don't need Darth Vader to tell us what's going on...


PS: I don't mind musical intermezzos tho'...

May "Orgasm" be considered as a "segue"?

If so then it's my favourite segue but only for the guitar solo lifted from Private Joy...

and the beautiful moaning by VANITY

Depends, on something like De La Souls "Three Feet High And Rising" it adds to the overall cd.

Waste of time and quite bothering.

No, and I also don't like sound effects added to explain what lyrics are supposed to mean.

"Guitar" on Leno is the greatest performance in the history of rock ' roll

It sure is nice having adults running our government now

"ooohhh..you let him call you arsenio?"

I can not stand the Darth Vader voice on The Rainbow Children.

However, I do like the tribute to Miles Davis segue before Man O'War on Rave. It flows beautifully into it.

Yes most of them!

Exodus had some funny ones..but still there were to many on that album

The 'Miles Davis' segue is 4 seconds silence between The Greatest Romance Ever Sold and Hot Wit U.

Do you think he actually recorded silence for 4 seconds or whether it's just a gap on the cd?

Why does my CD play music when it's on that track?

Probably there's a mess on your copy.
The official tracklist are:

...
The Greatest Romance Ever Sold
Segue (4 seconds of silence - 4 Miles)
Hot Wit U
...
Everyday Is A Winding Road
Segue (NPG Orchestra -> you're talking about this tho' this isn't the Miles tribute)
Man 'O' War
...

i love the ones on LoveSexy and the black album, the ones on Come are annoying though

1sexymf said:

Oh, I was confused - that clears it up. I love the NPG Orchestra segue then lol.
Thanks.

The only time I've ever appreciated them were on Janet Jackson's Rhythm Nation 1814. I thought they worked very well there and made that album a cohesive listen and an album rather than a collection of singles.

The only problem is that Janet must have fallen in love with segues because she's abused them ever since. Now they are a trademark of her albums and consistently one of the worst things about them. Just because it works once doesn't mean it works ever time.

I get the point of the whole Kirstie Alley gimmick Prince used back then, but it didn't make the album BETTER.

i like the little segue-y thing before "the ladder" on ATWIAD. stuff like that is okay.
