Makes me get into a reflective mood in terms of how do I listen to a new album from ARR. I primarily can think of 3 approaches/patterns under which I listen to a new album. Let me know what you guys think. Approach 1: Take the album listen to all the songs at one stretch and then repeat the same process. Advantage I found of this is that you listen to all the songs at one shot, but disadvantage is that first 2-3 times I feel completely lost. I follow this pattern a lot. Approach 2: Take one song at a time, listen to it a few times and then only move to the next song. This I rarely follow. Advantage is, it helps you internalize one song at a time. But disadvantage is it takes lot of patience and effort ! Approach 3: Listen to entire album once, pick the ones that stand out right away and stray towards them. I find this most suitable approach and I easily follow this path. But, downside is that I naturally tend to neglect some songs and never truly enjoy them unless I revisit the album later. This is most preferred approach for me. So guys, what do you think ? I am curious to know how others do this. Ram
