Reply to comment by the_prion in Oldest “classic” album? by the_prion

Personally, I think Elvis is a classic. And the cover is definitely iconic, but the album itself isn't as classic as some of his other albums in my opinion. Classic Elvis is his Aloha from Hawaii album for me.

It is an interesting topic.

So, you ask a question for which there is a clear answer, and you think you've bruised my ego?

Boy, you really are dumber than a box filled with hammers, aren't you.

Look, if you're too stupid to be able to both read and understand what is written, it says more about you than you'll ever realize.

Just to be clear - you being stupid has not offended me, insulted me, or harmed my ego. I just find it very tedious to have to deal with insufferable morons like you. Now please, stop replying to me. You just go away and be your stupid self and leave me alone.

Well, if you mean listening as in listening (i.e.paying attention to things like time signature, how the different instruments interact with each other, melody vs rhythm, close-listening to lyrics), then perhaps no more than 2 hours per day -- because this takes dedication.

If you mean listening as in just hearing, then from the time I wake up to the time I am out cold, anywhere from 10 - 14 hours per day.

The first lesson in a research project is to be as unambiguous about your topic, provide a simple question, include a clear definition of terms, list specific things you'd like to measure, and provide some sort of hypothesis (with a null if possible) that you are trying to test.

Otherwise you'll get answers that are often more confusing than helpful, and probably won't get any actual meaningful data. Or even worse, you'll need to "interpret" the data which opens up error and can invalidate your entire project.

Sorry for the lecture, but you should learn this for future endeavors.
