For example, Pink Floyd’s Another Brick in the Wall part 1 and part 2.
It depends if an ouverture counts, and how popular of a song.
Bad Religion has Ouverture before Sinister Rouge. They are different tracks but they merge together.
Also, one could argue that most of the songs on the album American Idiot by Green Day, are a prequel to the next one. The songs can be separated but they are parts of a story.
Can’t say I’ve heard of them, but I will listen to these, thanks for your recommendation 🤘🏽
For me it’s panic at the disco:
Part 1. Say Amen (2018)
Part 2. This is Gospel (2013)
Part3. Emperor’s new clothes ( 2015)
(Specially the vids they did are conected if you wanna watch them in that order.)
Ozzy had “Crazy Train” and also “A.V.H.” which contained the lyrics
Riding on a train that I can’t control
One might say such a train was… crazy.
This also reminds me of Nelly, his song E.I. the line says “I’m a sucker for cornrows” and then his song Shake Ya Tailfeather “I’m still a sucker for cornrows you know I never changed that”
All abooooooooaaard!! R.I.P. Ozzy frfr 😞
Rush B?
Cyka blyat?
I laughed at this more than I care to admit.
Cher then all the divas after her
The Smashing Pumpkins- “1979” and “Perfect”.
People said “Perfect” sounded so much like “1979” that the music video was intentionally made to be a sequel to the latter.
Didn’t they also have
The beginning is the end is the beginning & The end is the beginning is the end
?
To this day I still haven’t heard any of their songs, this might be the day I listen to their songs 😅
Tool Parabol - Parabola
From the band Grandaddy (across about 15 years of releases):
Jed’s Other Poem is so fucking good
Tool - Parabol / Parabola
Tool - Intermission / Jimmy (although probably among their less popular songs)
Will give these a listen, always down for listening to different genres 👍🏽
Tool… Lost keys and Rosetta Stoned
ELP’s Karn Evil 9 is a pretty epic trilogy.
The first impression part 2 is what got played most often on the radio, but personally i think part 3 is where it shines.
360 and 365 from Brat By Charli xcx
Also, Haken’s full albums Virus and Vector are prequels to the song Cockroach King from their album The Mountain.
Radiohead’s Creep, My Iron Lung, and All I Need
Radiohead is good, now there’s more to add to my list 🔥
Metallica has the unforgiven, unforgiven 2, and unforgiven 3
For that song I wouldn’t have chose these two parts. I would’ve gone for Part 1 and Part 3. Instead of a sequel Part 2 feels like a separate installment if you get what I mean.
Plus that’s kind of cheating. Is every prog song split into multiple parts considerable for this? Like also from Pink Floyd, Wish You Were Here (the suite?) is split into two large sections, and the folksy Pigs on the Wing acts like a storybook introduction and ending split into two parts and put at the start and end of the album.
There’s a ton more examples like that. Especially on concept albums. The Beach Boys’/Brain Wilson has Wonderful, Song for Children (Look), Child is Father of the Man, and Surf’s Up exploring the same idea and building on top of one another.
There’s so many multi-part pink floyd songs it ain’t even funny. Its pretty much every single album except some of the early ones
Time > Great Gig in the Sky
i agree but i think that one’s just a good transition
The suite on Wish You Were Here (album) is called Shine On You Crazy Diamond.
