Next time, paragraphs. Get some structure going. I'm sure a lot of people are going to tl:dr this because it's just a blob of text.

"it might be very well-written



guess we'll never know"



let me reference a quote I made earlier:



"I have grown to really like the song quite a bit since my first somewhat unpleasant listening experience, for it’s quite difficult to not admire the technically proficient musicianship and mostly tightly creative composition tricks showcased throughout this seven-and-a-half-minute-long “La Villa Strangiato” (An exercise in self-indulgence) that I’m sure had some influence on Rush’s much less indulgent “La Villa Strangiato”, and it’s essentially impossible to not admire the sheer originality of this ultimately important track, but if this uneven marriage of experimental hard rock and free jazz fusion is, in fact, bona fide progressive rock, then it’s a stereotypically basic form of the style which applies overblown abstractionism to ultimately inconsequential lyrics, and proves to excessive in its length and indulgent instrumentation, and that’s enough of a challenge to one’s patience, without the harsh nature of the tone that makes it easier to appreciate something like the subsequent track, “I Talk to the Wind” (TRACK 2/2A, 3.25/5), whose genuine sensitivity and whimsical atmosphere truly resonate with a solid balance of heartfelt, folksy simplicity and sophisticated songwriting that compensates for a somewhat pretentious lyric and problematically smooth pacing that challenges one’s patience over the overlong course of just over six minutes. "



This whole thing is a single sentence!

So no I don't think this is well written in the slightest

While the vocabulary is excellent and not childish, while he has put across his ideas and message, while he clarifies he praises the album for what it is, but despises it for his own personal reasons and while I intended to pos, I see that he always makes such reviews, with huge paragraphs, bad format and unnecessary sentences. I don't care about the rating, it just annoys me that every advice seem to fall on deaf ears. So, no pos, for you sir.

Cam you're not even a bad writer, but break up the paragraphs man. You'd get a lot more Pos.

...throughout this seven-and-a-half-minute-long “La Villa Strangiato” (An exercise in self-indulgence) that I’m sure had some influence on Rush’s much less indulgent “La Villa Strangiato”



I can't ignore this part no matter how much I try

You criticize self-indulgence? Tu quoque, sir. Tu quoque.
