what's not to like, it's funky as fuck. don't know why people hate it, other than it was plagiarized.

I literally NEVER listen to Planet Earth, so I had to dig it up to see wtf you were on about lol I think I like it best on that album, besides Guitar. If it wasn't for the title/phrase Future Baby Mama, that would be my pick, but I just can't get with that phrasing disbelief

Same for me. I think Somewhere Here On Earth is classic and Future Baby Mama is ok but the rest...

.

As for One U Wanna C - all I remember is he sings about his woman not having to shave her legs and wanting to come on her like thunder confused

I love the whole album and especially The One U Wanna C. Loved when he did it live at one of the Indigo aftershows in 2007 headbang.

Oh, when I say the whole album, I do of course mean with the exception of Chelsea Rodgers ill. I replace it with FUNK when I burn a CD and it's awesome.



RIP sad

Actually, I can remember one time when I did love hearing Chelsea Rodgers. It was 13th September at the O2 and it was the last thing he played. At least I think that was the night. It was right at the end of the show and loads of people had left. I had been talking to people around me about the aftershow and they asked why I hadn't left for it yet. I said it was because there was no way of knowing if he'd finished here yet. Luckily he hadn't finished or I'd have had to skulk off quietly with people quietly talking about me as I left. lol

People in the know always hung around...knowing that Prince would come back. lol

I liked PE much better than 3121. Not even close IMO. The One U Wanna C is outstanding and certainly NOT country. Chelsea Rogers has a great vibe to it and I have always loved The Lion of Judah. One of his more organic albums and it was a very pleasant surprise.

Totally love "The One U Wanna C". Excellent sing along song while driving....


"The One U Wanna C"


I know I ain't the first to tell ya
I sho bet I won't be the last
I know Ur in a hurry baby
So let me make this fast

[Chorus]
I got a lotta money
I don't wanna spend it on me
I like pretty thangs
U're just as pretty as U can be
So if U ain't busy later
And U want some company
I ain't trying to be a hater
I'm the one, the one, the one U wana C

Look around U baby
U know U've seen it all before
Every nickle in this club lookin 4 a dime
Nothing less nothing more

2 tall 2 be talked down 2
2 over it 2 be put under
Any spell a blind fisherman could cast
That's why I came like thunder to tell U

[Chorus]

U don't need 2 fix ur hair
4 somebody U don't care 4
U don't need 2 shave Ur legs
If it ain't me that's knocking at Ur door
I know U ain't a concubine
I know U ain't a 1 nite stand
I don't wanna waste Ur time
If U wanna get creamy
I'm the one U wanna C

Oh the one U wanna C baby
Oh the one U wanna C
I'm the one U wanna C
[repeat]

Coming on U like thunder
I'm the one U wanna C

headbang

Nice, catchy track from a solid album. Good songs throughout.

Somewhere Here on Earth is my favorite track from that album.

(Insert something clever here)

good album, been playing it in the car the last few days, strong, consistent material, all capped by the wonderful Chelsea Rodgers.
