^ I cannot disagree with this more. My head is going to expose. If I had a time I'd cultivate a fucking thesis on why the album is marvelous and certainly does give off an ambiance. That's one of the reasons I love it so much, because it totally does have an ambiance (NEXT LEVEL would be an example of an album that doesn't).

walking proud, especially the remastered version on BEST 2 black, is truly a showcase. I adore how intricate the drum track is, and how it fold into the melody/composition of the song soooo well. It really is a star component of the track.

And CAROLS I used to find boring af, but the remastered mix on BEST 2 black changed that. I love how the prechorus changed the pace/mood of the song, hinting at what's to come in the lift off of the chorus, and the chorus is like descending into pure bliss (as far as emotion goes). It's like pillows of sound and the warmth of love.

And THAT BRIDGE!! You can feel the "despite this, despite that (the whirlwind of emotions, the unpleasant times, the tense times, the drama), this feeling of happiness when I am beside you, transcends and overpowers it all. It's magical.
