Of course that's it but with it doesn't have enough recognition that it could have had.rashomon wrote: Fri 28 Nov 2025, 8:37 pm umm it already is one of the most epic albums in music history ... as it is.
I love Introspective but all fans know there was something wrong on it, the number of songs that made the album a bit worse that it could have been in my opinion.
The 12" version of Always on my mind is highly acclaimed like one the best of their career and Neil Tennant even thougt they should have put another version of It's Alright in the album.
The Sound of the Atom Splitting is a good opening as it was in the first tour. IGE is a good pop song for that time. By the way, am I the only one who thinks Bounce is a great song and very unrated?

Thread title could take a leaf out of the Boys book and the brevity of their album names.

lol
I often wonder what an album of 3 minute Introspective pop songs could have achieved, with the single-style mixes. The two extra tracks I'd add would be Excited and Funny Uncle.

Topic creator: don't state your opinion as fact. And more importantly: don't think you know the fanbase. A sentence starting with "all the fans know..." and ending with "... in my opinion" clearly shows what is wrong with this topic.

Introspective could have been called Disco 2.

"all fans know there was something wrong on it"..... Well, excuse me. I don't think there is anything "wrong" with it. It's perfect as it is. You don't speak on my behalf.. Thank you.

‘Introspective’ is absolutely perfect as it is. I wouldn’t change a thing.
