I am thinking about the sequence of songs on different albums. For example,on 'Horizon' ,After 'Desperado',it is the song'Please Mr Postman'. I think Desperado is a sad song,but Please Mr Postman is a happy song. So maybe PMP should not follow D. Both songs are very great. Actually ,who decided the sequence of the songs on each albums?

Good question Ming....I surely don't know who decides the sequence of songs, but maybe it has something to do w/ the time length of the songs....maybe Pl Mr. Postman was put where it on Horizon as kind of an upbeat after such a slow and sad song. Just what came to my fuzzy mind.

I'm not certain but I think Richard had the biggest say in the sequence of songs. I'm sure Karen also had a final say. Maybe Herb or Jerry (A&M) had their input also. But mainly I think it was Richard first and Karen second.
I agree that "Postman" was probably placed where it was to liven things up after the dark and soulful "Desperado".
