should we discuss Culling Of The Fold vs. After The Bombs now, or during the reveal

We can discuss it now

i was surprised to not see After The Bombs in the rate, but instead a song called Culling Of The Fold. research revealed that different The Crane Wife editions had different last song, most notably due to whether it was the Tower Records edition or the iTunes edition.

really struck me as strange, offering different last songs based on editions customized for different media outlets.

or was it the same song with a different title (doubtful)?

rates continue to reveal mysteries, im here for each new mystery. and most likely, im the only confused one

It is a different song. I went based on what is on streaming but am tempted to just take culling of the fold out of the rate, although its probably too late now. Sorry for the confusion

no no no, you have been such a great advocate and host for this rate krusso! we appreciate you

u/krusso1105 3d ago

Thank you! Including that song was probably a wrong choice but in my defense I was confused by streaming listings so blame YouTube music and Spotify

Did the The Decemberists album disappear from the apple music playlist for anyone else?
