I must be one of the few Orgers who loves this album. A couple of songs on it, I just cant stand though. One of them is SHO-BED-OHH.

Nah... u ain't gonna make me listen to this album again just to see what songs should get voted off first. There's only three songs on this album that are at least halfway decent, and everyone knows what those are -- so why not skip to the final three and vote out the rest right now?

NEW POWER SOUL -- MAD SEX -- UNTIL URE IN MY ARMS AGAIN -- WHEN U LOVE SOMEBODY -- SHO-BED-OHH -- PUSH IT UP -- FREAKSONTHISSIDE -- I LIKE FUNKY MUSIC

Wasted Kisses - it really is one of the weirdest songs that he has ever written. Rather morbid and kind of hollow.

Can I vote for all of them xcept "Wasted Kisses"? (I'm serious). Actually I can - I can be srategic instead of sincere: so this round:

Sho-Be-Doh

(there r worse on there - but who cares)
Btw - the fact that ppl r voting off wk firt round, or w/o even knowing the songs explains why the results r always so off-kilter.

New Power Soul is a supreme album, the fact that u all cant see that jus makes it cooler in my eyes... Diamonds and Pearls=Accessible cheese 4 the masses.
New Power Soul=Deep and sophisticated funk, 4 those with finnesse.
Stay blind and continue to show ya ignorance to the masses. I pity you fools.

I think you'll find that most of us who find NPS to be over-produced boredom, are not big D&P fans either. NPS is not some jewel that only the "in" ppl get - P was aiming for mass D&P-style appeal here too (as with Rave), it's just that no-one was interested (for once they were right!).

I think NPS is one of Prince's more interesting "comeback" attempts (far more so than Diamonds & Pearls and Musicology IMO).

I don't even think it's all that commerical really. I can hardly imagine many of the tracks from that album on the radio.

The record is all too readily dismissed by many fans. "The One" and "Wasted Kisses" are two of his best 90s songs. The title track is way funkier than anything he's done lately... and that piano in "Mad Sex" is off the hook!

Sure, there's a couple of duds, but fan classics like "Around The World In A Day" and "Lovesexy" aren't short of two or three themselves...

I love the last minute or so, but it can't make up for the rest:

Dude, clean out your ears. That's the one song (and maybe The One wink ) worth saving.

New Power Soul is an outright embarassment. It's worse than anything Tony M. and Kirky J. ever did. Shoo be doo is terrible too but New Power Soul is the worst.
