sam smith's "album" was like 30 mins long and had like 9 songs or sth. It's normal that singles are heard prior. So you have 14 songs (not counting interludes) most of which are super long. I assure you it's not a short record.
@Kintsugi, everyone loves you here for sharing informaton. So appreciated! I just have one question that I think everyone would want to know the answer to.
