FOR YOU vs. PRINCE FOR YOU vs. PRINCE
Both his freshman and sophmore debut albums, these two albums share almost the same distinct sound more than any other back to back album... Some can argue these two albums were not the distinct MPLS sound that Prince pioneered, but rather two very good soul and r&b albums.
Which album do you prefer more, FOR YOU or PRINCE?
1. FOR YOU - I WANNA BE YOUR LOVER 2. IN LOVE - WHY YOU WANNA TREAT ME SO BAD 3. SOFT AND WET - SEXY DANCER 4. CRAZY YOU - WHEN WE'RE DANCING CLOSE AND SLOW 5. JUST AS LONG AS WE'RE TOGETHER - WITH YOU 6. BABY - BAMBI 7. MY LOVE IS FOREVER - STILL WAITING 8. SO BLUE - I FEEL FOR YOU 9. I'M YOURS - IT'S GONNA BE LONELY
FOR YOU: 6 PRINCE: 3
Personally I prefer FOR YOU. While it is not groundbreaking or revolutionary, it is a spectacular album for a DEBUT, and very overlooked by most of his fans and critics. Personally in my opinion FOR YOU is the stronger album, even though PRINCE has more iconic hits in the Prince catalouge such as I WANNA BE YOUR LOVER, I FEEL FOR YOU, and the amazing BAMBI. Overall it has more snooze tracks than FOR YOU imo. I recently fell in love with FOR YOU a few months ago and was surprised how solid of an album it is especially if you compare it to his later works that were underindulgent such as MPLSOUND, PLANET EARTH, etc...

I prefer 'Prince', personally. I love just about every song on this album. I was just listening to it today. | |

Do you and Latin have a bet going to see who can have the most threads going at once? [Edited 3/5/17 19:07pm] | |

I don't know why but it reminds me of a song on the 'Love Jones' soundtrack - 'Hopeless' (a movie that I believe Prince liked, coincidentally). | |

I like For You, but Prince wins in a landslide when you compare track by track... IMO, of course. | |

1. FOR YOU 5 - I WANNA BE YOUR LOVER 9 2. IN LOVE 9 - WHY YOU WANNA TREAT ME SO BAD 6 3. SOFT AND WET 9 - SEXY DANCER 10 4. CRAZY YOU 5 - WHEN WE'RE DANCING CLOSE AND SLOW 2 5. JUST AS LONG AS WE'RE TOGETHER 7 - WITH YOU 3 6. BABY 7 - BAMBI 8 7. MY LOVE IS FOREVER 7 - STILL WAITING 5 8. SO BLUE 1 - I FEEL FOR YOU 10 9. I'M YOURS 8 - IT'S GONNA BE LONELY 6 . Even though I like Prince more, the sequencing on 4U is better. Prince has 3 epic songs (Lover, Sexy Dancer and feel 4 U), 3 decent songs (Why you wanna, gonna be lonley, bambi) and 3 weepy ballads that go nowhere. . 1. No contest, Lover was an epic dance hit, For You is 10 seconds of screeching. 2. In Love is my favourite 4 U song, nice dance beat and funny lyrics about sugarcanes and playing in rivers. Why you..... is okay, but just a bit boring and trite. 3. Soft and wet is a great song, but Sexy Dancer is a true classic. The highlights on Prince are higher than those on 4 u, but the low lites are lower. 4. Crazy You is a below average song, but much better than the ballad on Prince, this ballad kills the whole album. 5. Again, an upbeat disco beat single next to a dull and boring ballad. Seriously Prince is larded down with shitty ballads, lose them and Prince would have been a Dirty Mind Quality album. 6. Bambi is a great song, so is Baby, but Bambi is more in your face, this was close, both are essential early Prince songs. 7. My love is forever is upbeat and danceable, where as Still waiting is a better ballad, but still poor. 8. So Blue is probably the worst song of all these albums and easily a pathetic competitor next to I feel for you, probably his best pre 1980s song. No contest 9. I'm Yours is a good 1970s song with a very 70s dance feel, where as Its gonna be lonely is the best of the 4 ballads on Prince, it is still pathetic.
Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name | |

He stacked his vocals to perfection. It's my favorite instrument. What? | |
