"Crucial," is beautiful.

So Romantic...

The words, "Would make an Army surrender."
I'm gonna go play it now.

This man Prince is such a sweet and kind poet. (lyricist) Song Writer. cool

The song is playing now...Prince says He needs a "Jack of all trades," in this song...It is a gray feeling, but that is what I am. cool

"Good Love," is playing now in light of the clock just striking midnight and it being Prince's 51st Birthday.

In the Heat of the night, Prince knows what 2 do.

Cherry Pie, Apple Kisses, everything is cool.

These words and all of the girl's background vocals, the whole song is just irresistably, "Cute."

I guess it was "Crucial," for me to appreciate "Good Love," on your thread King. cool

Nah I dont like it think he made teh right choice by replacing it with Adore (my fave prince song) I think crucial sounds cheesey and adore is more sophisticated lyrically and far more timeless nod

Everybody's looking 4 the ladder
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
The steps U take are no easy road
But the reward is great

I always loved this song, but the part that makes me a bit uncomfortable is when he says

"Prisoner in love with the opposite gender,
I ain't sayin' you're better baby,
I ain't sayin' you're not"

What's that supposed to mean?

Is Prince conflicted here with whether or not being in love with a woman is better than being in love with a man?

I love the song tremendously... both the sax and the guitar version (prob the guitar version a little bit more), but that line just leaves a bad taste in my brain. confused

Don't forget it is the guitar version on Crystal Ball, it's just that it's the slightly shorter guitar solo version... wink

Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

I love it, too and put it in my all-time top 10 favorite Prince songs. Not #1 with me right now, but it was for awhile.

And I like the sax boot better than the Crystal Ball version.

"Guitar" on Leno is the greatest performance in the history of rock ' roll
