Emancipation one disc as great album

Emancipation was not the kind of freedom
we expected for his first release after WB
departure.
For the first time Princes production started
sounding bland and plastic.
But there is a nice production work on the 3 cd
set full of filler material.
so one disc perfect Emancipation would be...?
my choice is

In this bed i scream
Style
Emale
Right back here in my Arms
Dreaming about U
Curios Child
My Computer
Damned if i do
Saviour
One of Us
Holy River

i think if Emancipation have this songs only it could have been very nice album

I liked more songs than you off this album. Thought over-all it was very good, better than some of his more recent ones. But he offers us so much in quantity that you forget how much quality there is in that mix and diversity!

No Somebodys Somebody or Love we make? Van gogh and 2020 shouldve been on the album.

I've always said in life, and on the Org, that Disk 1 is great on shuffle too. Just the one disk, shuffle, any order, pretty much, is spot on.

I can't find it anymore, but I once had made up a list of a strong 2 CD set. There's plenty of room to make 2 good disks, full of music. However, as you said, Disk 1 on its own is great. It needs every song on it. No VanGogh, or 2020. Just the songs on it.

Speak for yourself, I enjoy all three discs and nobody ever agrees on the best twelve tracks anyway.

I enjoy all 3 discs too

My Emancipation cd would look like this, in no particular order:

Jam of the year
New world
The Human body
Lala means I love u
Sleep around
My computer
The love we make
Sex in the summer
Soul Sanctuary
Curious child
Dreaming about you
The Holy River

I Love it all...I'm happy there are 3 discs.

thanx funksterr,other track list can work well also

nah, a solid 2 disc joint it would'a been, imo. losing only a few songs (damned if i do, da da da, soul sanctuary, one kiss at a time )and trim down a few overlong others (get yo groove on, the human body, sleep around) .

may the best of your todays be the worst of your tomorrows...
