Not gonna lie, I love "The Parts" more on its own than part of the album, but it provides a necessary breather before "The Silence".

 

The production this is seriously so haunting. The vocals with the slight echo that makes it sound like Andy is singing alone in a cave is the greatest thing

 

Added “H” for emphasis. Love it.

 

The Parts is easy in the top half of the album

 

The reverb on the vocals pretty much makes the song for me.

 

I don't think there's any doubt we're all in sync could include my post with those haha pretty funny

 

Your tan skin felt like universal envy is one of his best lines

 

Britney Spears reference kinda takes me out of it.

 

really? feels very intimate to me, like overhearing a conversation. vaguely nostalgic, yknow?

 

"The Silence" is about to wreck us all

 

This song always makes me want to cuddle with my girlfriend

 

I have to agree it feels very out of place. I like it....but it does feel very out of place. I was shocked when I saw it was on the album. Because it's a great Andy solo song. But when you got the band, give me the band!

Release a solo andy record too though...

 

You must've been a Christina Aguilera guy?

 

The fucking falsetto vocals always kill me. Always. Are you kidding me?

 

the falsetto reminds me so much of julien baker

 

Here we go. This is still in contention for my new favorite ManOrch track.

 

So. The Silence may or may not have made it into my Top 3 MO songs of all time

 

Another super simplistic but super effective guitar lead!

 

I need Manchester and Julien to tour so she can harmonize with him on the Parts

 

Everything starting after "I don't wanna waste away" is my favorite MO moment ever

 

The piano is a great touch on this one. This entire song is just otherworldly.

 

I agree with that, it just feels out of place on an album like this. The way this album seems to jump around in time makes it feel timeless, but that reference ties it back to a very specific time. That's one of the reasons I like the song more on its own than as part of the album.

 

I'm going to post this now so I can enjoy it with my eyes closed later. The best part of the record is when everything but Andy's vocals and bass cut out into the HUGE vocal/music ending

 

I will definitely never forget seeing this song live. I was basically sobbing by the end.

 

“The silence was super effective! SHeaver10 fainted”
