Song Lyric quotes why only his earlier work?

sun Love to guess what songs are indicated by the quotes when you come to the site, but why are the majority, if not all, the songs from music before the mid-90's? hrmph..and then limited only to a few selected albums or Prince's two movies hmmm..he has great music after the earlier days too.... rolleyes nod

You can choose the song quotes you like via orgnote to a mod. Mine are all Neil Diamond lyrics.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I would guess it's cause the database hasn't been updated in a while. Not a small amount of work, I would guess.

Also: he may have some great music since then, but wouldn't you agree that the number of killer lines has dropped off considerably?

A lot of the earlier lyrics have just sunk in...Prince has great lyrics from recent albums.

I'd buy U flowers every day, I'd give U power. I'd do whatever U say.~If I was the man in Ur Life.

The Lyrics from "Satisfied." "I'm about to get open-hearted." (Love that)

The Lyrics from "Somewhere Here On Earth." For what it's worth, you are somewhere here on Earth...(How Sweet)

and "$." easy come...easy come (cute song.) cool
"The Lion Sleeps Tonight...
