BUT ... all seriousness ... a well placed middle eight can be the utmost of deciding factors in a well constructed song ...structure is key in songwriting ... the song can be hummin' along up thru the verse/chorus/verses and over the bridge ... then ... BAM ... the dreaded middle eight springs forth with the final minute left on the counter ... tempo shifts or something and that entire three minutes or so that had you just boppin' right along goes straight down the dumper!
