AOA is built as a carefully and tightly arranged arc while maintaining a spaciousness that invokes “a place in heaven far off in the future,” an album with a thread from start to finish, a celebration, a goodbye, a manifesto on what it means to be and stay human in “this brand new age.” | |

One of my go-tos! The story this album tells Feelings... that sums it up. | |

Absolutely. When I first heard AoA's Breakdown, I felt that song was 'too personal' and I felt like I shouldn't be hearing this. Then, as I listed to the entire album after his death, I realized this IS his goodbye album. Hands down. To this day, I can't make it through that album without shedding a tear. Welcome home class. We've come a long way. - RIP Prince | |

Interesting. Always felt that album was very very strong. Will have to revisit it soon. | |

Cool to see someone get so much out of it. Being that some people see the HitnRun concept as an unfinished suite of outtakes going backwards through his career, this album would be a fitting finale to his album career as it ends with him disappearing into the future | |

Interesting read. Made me think about how "finally beloved we meet at last" connects with "dearly beloved we are gathered here to get through this thing called life". The wooh is on the one! | |
