Neil,

Wow... that's a pretty detailed analysis. Since MP3 players and
iTunes are the usual method I listen to music these days, I don't
think I've listed to DBAOTD in track order in a very long time:
1. Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark
2. Don't You Even Care?
3. Your Secret's Safe With Me
4. I Can't Go Home
5. Night Patrol
6. Acting This Way
7. Gotta Change The Rules
8. Across The Line
9. At Last
10. Laugh Out Loud

I'm assuming you mean "At Last" instead if "It's All Over".

So now I'm going to have to put the tracks back in album order and
turn off shuffle and give it another listen. I don't have the musical
background you do, but it'd be a good discussion.

What other track orders do people not find 'right'. I know when I
listen to the 'best of' CD's I kind of get jarred when the next track
isn't one from the same album.

cheers,
Rich
