I've been playing these by myself and enjoying everyone's answers. But I really liked this one, had to play too. Ahh the late 80s, Good times.

LOVESEXY vs. BATMAN

1. EYE NO - THE FUTURE (I listen to Lovesexy when I've had it with life, when the needle hits and Eye No starts...by the middle of the song I'm smiling, by the end of the album I'm cured.)

2. ALPHABET ST. - ELECTRIC CHAIR (So close, but has to be this way. Though some of the acoustic versions of Alphabet Street he did later... love )

3. GLAM SLAM - THE ARMS OF ORION (Going to Lovesexy Jail for this one. Escape though beats them both, and yes I know how Typical Prince Fam it is of me to prefer the B-Side, but that's Prince for you.)

4. ANNA STESIA - PARTYMAN (Anna Stesia, like the Ladder, like the Cross, like There is Lonely, like Future Soul Song, makes my life a much better place when it gets dark out there. The only one I skip to on Lovesexy-difficult to do as y'all know, just to hear it.)

5. DANCE ON - VICKI WAITING (There's a bass guitar in this...must dancing jig )

6. LOVESEXY - TRUST (oh GOD was this one was hard...too hard...but Lovesexy is the One, Until my Day is Done. Trust though, Trust makes me so happy!)

7. WHEN 2 R IN LOVE - LEMON CRUSH

8. I WISH U HEAVEN - SCANDALOUS (Close again, but I just have such happy memories associated with I Wish U Heaven I can't...I just can't!)

9. POSITIVITY - BATDANCE (Have you had your + ?)

LOVESEXY: 7 yes

BATMAN: 2 (But I still love it.)

Enjoyed reading your descriptions Lucah wink . Like I have said before, sometimes choosing one Prince album or song over another is like choosing your favorite pet or child. You feel bad about slighting the other one wink .

Very very true Gandorb. You just want to say, but I love you all; you all are so special to me...or as my mum always said 'I hate you all equally.' giggle

All right--I can do this, simple one song versus one song. I can't do the huge "top ten Prince tracks" thing, but I can handle this. Here goes

Eye No - The Future

Alphabet Street - Electric Chair

Glam Slam - The Arms of Orion

Anna Stesia - Partyman

Dance On - Vicki Waiting

Lovesexy - Trust (the only hard choice)

When 2 R in Love - Lemon Crush (yeah, I said it)

I Wish U Heaven - Scandalous

Positivity - Batdance

Hmmm... Batman won. I can't imagine it ever beating Lovesexy out if I ever did force myself to pick a favorite album list, but song by song--yeah, I'm comfortable with this. Especially the When 2 R in Love/Lemon Crush thing. Why is that track on TWO albums? Why is THAT what he kept from the Black Album? Seriously, I don't get it. I really like Trust--it might be my favorite from Batman--it just got put up against a particularly strong opponent. Anna Stesia, Lovesexy, and I Wish U Heaven are just all really strong tracks, and would have beaten out anything from Batman. Eye No would have lost to everything on Batman other than The Future (except maybe Scandalous).

"Lemon Stir The Pot" is a bit of a stretch, but I LIKE the creativity in your titles!

.

And by the way, glad to see another 'Arms of Orion' fan.

.

To me, these are both bitchin'-ass albums - but for VERY different reasons.

Dance On is the only song I dont like on Lovesexy. If I just ranked all the songs, 8 of the 9 lovesexy would come ahead of all of the batman. Never hated batman, just never had any urge to listen to it again after a couple months from its release. Where I will go back to lovesexy every 5-8 years and get to know it again.

I sometimes wonder whether all pleasures are not substitutes for joy.

Had the Batman project been ignored/abandoned and Prince released GB after Lovesexy instead, he would've ended the 80's with straight solid albums. Screw Batman lol

I'll do this with the running order of the tracks on the second one backwards.

1. Eye No - Batdance

2. Alphabet St. - Scandalous

3. Glam Slam - Lemon Crush

4. Anna Stesia - Trust

5. Dance On - Vicki Waiting

6. Lovesexy - Partyman

7. When 2 R In Love - Arms Of Orion

8. I Wish U Heaven - Electric Chair

9. Positivity - The Future

Preserving the original running orders for these comparisons is arbitrary anyway. wink

I dig the Batman album but compared to Lovesexy? Only "Scandalous" is worthy. The hits ("Batdance", "Partman" but not "Orion") are great ear candy for sure.

For me nothing matches SOTT and Lovesexy
