And this is the album where he got Lisa and Wendy involved again. That was supposed to be the second coming. It's too bad the songs were weak.

I'm not sure I'd class him emailing them a couple of tracks to add guitar and piano to as them being involved again - but I know what you mean, it was an underwhelming return that didn't satisfy any itch.

Trent Reznor just said in a recent interview that he thought Planet Earth was garbage...

Planet Earth is one of my favourite post-00's Prince albums. Absolutely love the title track, All The Midnights and The One U Wanna C.

ha! it's one of the albums not on Tidal!

He does, and he has in fact heard each and every album ever released in human history so he knows what he's talking about.

Don't be daft. Is that what I said? Stop making shit up.

Planet Earth may not be as arse-curdlingly awful as your average Justin Kanye album, but the difference is those guys are talentless hack puppet robots, and no-one with a brain expects anything useful, clever or talented to be excreted from them... when someone with a talent as immense as Prince makes Planet Earth, you just have to weep for the waste of talent and fall from grace on display.... in filmic terms it's like Quentin Tarantino... how does someone so talented, who started out so strong, end up making the series of abortions that are Death Proof/Inglourious Basterds/Django Unchained? He could be so good, and yet he lets himself be deliver just 'enough'. That should be enough to make anyone mad.

In short, it's a shame (and is made worse) because there's talent there, that's being frittered away on arse-twaddle.

Do I get bonus points for getting two arse-mentions in there?

and you never mentioned any that stuff in your previous thread so don't be to hard on databank

got this interview???

Ha... yeah, it is.... HitNRun is miles ahead of Planet Earth, which now sounds more tired, bored and pedestrian than ever....

Nobody has to love HitNRun, of course... but isn't it more interesting to have our man trying something he's not done before (even if you think he fails at it), than just turfing out the same old same old.... half-baked rocker/ballad/funk song/ etc...?

For me he sounds almost completely uninvolved on Planet Earth.,.. phoning it in.. on HitNRun he's engaged again, he's having fun, trying stuff, seeing what sticks.... always more valid, in my opinion anyway.....

HitnRun ain't a good album... But at least it ain't as boring as PLANET EARTH.

Are those the only choices? I don't think they are.

I'm not a fan of Planet Earth (or, as I like to call it, Planet Urf). But it has some very nice moments that (almost) salvage the whole.

HITNRUN is just embarrassing.

It's true Planet Earth has some nice moments, over all as an album it is very boring though...

HitnRun has some nice moments as well, I like 1000 X's & O's and Hardrocklover, the rest is all discombobulated and is an electronic mess. June is ok but it's one of those songs that is just so so u end up forgetting about it...

Really like PE. Certainly better than the new one.

Clean out dem ears.

Future Baby Mama, masterpiece, Somewhere Here, masterpiece, Planet Earth, great song, Purple Rain quality. A song about something instead of wanting to be free and or sexing young hootchies.
