Mad Sex is a superb song.

Is it true that it's about Mel B?

The lyrics certainly fit.

It's a catchy song, especially considering it's from the dreaded NPS.

I love Come On, The One and Until U're In My Arms Again as well.

That's four really good tracks. Not too bad going.

I also like When U Love Somebody - very KC and the Sunshine Band.

I also have affection for Freaks on this side...call me crazy, but I just dig the bass.

Nobody has mentioned 'Wasted Kisses'? It's the best track on the album!!

It's without a doubt one his worst albums. And in my opinon 'Mad Sex' is one of the worst tracks on the album. Sorry.


It still says alot for Prince that his worst album includes some great songs.
Namely:

wasted kisses
come on
until ur in my arms again
the one (ok, not so great on record, but great live!)

Cant have it, it's a weak effort in my opinion.

When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading.

Yup, I love this song, one of a handfull on NPS that
actually work for me.

I love the dirty, rough beat [left on the mixingboard
by Kirky J no less lol] and the way his vox sound on
this one.

those horns are so sleazy smile

i was born with the wrong sign, in the wrong house, with the wrong ascendancy

Yes, it's supposed to be all about Mel B. (What's she doing now? Posing for Playboy?)

"Come On", "Wasted Kisses" and "The One" save NPSoul from the shitpile though.

I wouldn't say the song is "superb", but it is catchy. There are a few great songs on that cd IMO.

Not a great song.

But a hypnotic and very effective groove it is.

It's a long-held opinion by many fans, and the lyrics and time of recording seem to confirm it.

Love this song...NPSoul gets a raw deal...
It's FUNKY!

Try this...turn the LIGHTS OFF, put the BASS
to 3/4, turn the TREBLE way down, and FEEL IT!

This is one of his funkiest CD's...

headbang

MJ was a brilliant singer/dancer...best of all time, however, that's all he was. Let's not compare him to Prince, best musician of all time, but rather, compare him to someone like Sammy Davis Jr (who I don't hear anyone calling a musical genius).

I still love NPS ... . Like many others I have a real 'soft spot' for it.

Its a great funky, party album. Take it for what it is.
