I think it's a great album. The future is my fave track, I also like Electric chair, trust and of course SCANDALOUS the music is amazing just like the artist
Prince is the best there is.

it's when prince finally lost his edge but that album had its fine moments. "The future","Electric Chair, Vicki Waiting, Scandoulous. I always thought Batdance sounded 2 much like the campy 60's version. Partyman isn't good at all. I love u in me is better than the slow songs that are actually on that album

I like so much: The Future - Electric Chair - Trust....

Almost nothing new on offer, but half great, half mediocre. Wrong single choices (as usual).

It's a very good album

Not his best but I like it very much. Scandoulous is one of my fav's from that album - especially the 'rapture' version.

i love it altho yes i agree it was when he lost an edge and the songwriting in general started to become a lot more straight forward on a whole. it also had a sound that was not as daring and the arrangements, to me, didn't have the edge that let's say ATWIAD had.
still tho, i loved the concept of having the different characters from the film be the "singers" on the songs.

i love it i really think it went alone well wit the female great kick ass concept thats what the joker of dark knight lacks is theme music and who better 2 b ur theme than the best artist in the world prince

hated it when i first heard it. it's grown on me a bit, but it still isn't my favorite. some great stuff on it, some not so great stuff . partyman is my shit!

"Trust," is my favorite song, from the album.

Great album IMHO. In my top 5 Prince records/

I love the Batman album. I love most of the songs on it. I cant' see why Trust is so underated.

As others have said, this was the first time I realized that Prince was not bulletproof. But there were some good moments.

Perfect example of a superhero saving a career that could've taken a setback after Lovesexy...

I personally prefer the 12" version of "Partyman" and even thuogh it may sound like a potential B-side (), I really do like "The Future".

'dre

I love everything on this album xcept Armz of Orion.

EXACTLY!

I love the Batman album- it has special memories for me as this is what made me jump on board the Prince Express. Haven't got off since!

Over rated at the time. Under rated over time. I think that many of the songs are really good including Arms of Orion. The only songs I don't care for are Partyman and Vikki Waiting.

The Future.

I can't remember which music critic said it, but I agree: It's not that Batman was a bad album, but with Prince, you just expect so much more .

Not his best stuff but i like it,he came to Brazil just after that album,great show.

TRUE. Sonically close to LoveSexy by far an inferior album to that one.

this isn't when prince lost his edge contrary 2 some's opinion the only track imo that isn't particular interesting 2 me is trust

I really like the album. One of Prince better albums.

Brings back good and bad memories for me with this album and I must say since Batman has been on TV in the last 2 weeks on the Uk digital channels, I have watched both just to hear Scandalous.
