I definitely wouldn't want to miss out on 'The Ballad of Bill Hubbard,' and I feel 'What God Wants, Part 1' stands out more as a song than Part 2. I'm not a fan of 'Perfect Sense Part 2,' 'Late Home Tonight,' or 'Watching TV.' As for 'The Bravery of Being Out of Range,' I can tolerate it.

I like this album much more now, and can listen to all the songs with no problem. I couldn't stand Watching Tv and Too Much Rope some years ago, but they grew on me.

This album could have been easily issued as the double album. It's only 9 minutes shorter than The Wall. (72:36 min ATD vs 81:29 min TW).
