Changing the order of tracks and skipping some

I guess it's not the most popular opinion to consider these changes, but having my IPod and ITunes, and having my compilations of favorite music in them, sometimes I do like to make lists very close to the albums, but with a few changes. Sometimes it's just including live versions instead of the original ones. Some quick ones I might think. 6 Wives of Henry the VIII, I prefer to listen to it in the chronological order in which Henry was with each one of them. Perhaps even mix my favorite versions between the original and the Hampton Court Palace concert, and adding the Tudorture and Tudorrock songs. I also like adding a few of the re recorded songs from the Arthur album to complete the story on that one (Camelot, The Holy Grail, and Excalibur). Related to 6 Wives, on Fragile I like to change Ricks solo spot for Catherine of Aragon, which I understand was what he intended to use on the album, but wasn't able because of his record contract, and which features the whole Yes lineup anyway (except for Anderson, being an instrumental song).

None of these are "optimal"

Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Tarkus: skip side 2
Yes - Close to the Edge: 3, 2, 1
King Crimson - THRAK: 1, 2, 13, 8, 4, 5, 6, 10, Inner Garden KC50, 3, 14
Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here: the short songs then Shine On You Crazy Diamond

Sometimes listening to things out of order or out of context makes them sound different. I often listen to shuffled playlists and a song will come up that seems new and unfamiliar, but it's just a sleeper that finally got its time in the spotlight after hiding amongst other tracks on the album.

Pink Floyd Wish You Where Here, I prefer to listen to Shine On You Crazy Diamond parts I to IX and then the short songs.

I don't see the point of changing the order of the tracks on an album. I feel that if I play an album in the wrong order too often, then I will be creating an incorrect memory of the album, making the album sound wrong when played in the correct order. I do sometimes skip the less appealing tracks of an album when I don't really have the time to play the full album. However, I do try not to make a habit of doing this, to avoid creating an incorrect memory of the album. But there are albums that I simply stop playing before the final track, and I'm not really concerned about doing this.
