Tedious

So i'm spending my time rediscovering Stacie Orrico (her self-named debut album), but it seems like there're too few songs there worth listening to, except "(There's Gotta Be) More To Life" and "Instead". The latter has wonderful lyrics but a sucky melody. After that, I listened to Alanis Morrissette (her compilation album, Alanis Morrissette: The Collection) with at first awe, but later quite freaked out by her kookyness, which she emphasizes in every track! However, songs like "Ironic" and "Hands Clean" are pure gems! Now I've switched to Elton John (his compilation album, Elton John's Love Songs). I've just recently realized that his occasionally coarse vocals on "Sacrifice" is due to a prior throat operation he had to remove a polyps growth, caused by drug abuse. That song has never sounded the same to me ever since.

Conquering vectors analysis seems like a steep struggle uphill. Every step is fraught with doubt, bitterness and draining up awesome amounts of brain power. Right now, I only ask these questions:

Is this tediousness worth it? Will it be worth it?
