As an album it does go on a bit. Too many of the songs are just a repeated riff looped for way too long, the vocals providing the only variation. I hardly listen to it at all, but I appreciate its value as the album which "broke" him to many people. | |

The editing on MTV made alot of y'all some ADD muthafukkas. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA The Org is the short yellow bus of the Prince Internet fan community. | |

If 1999 was a compilation entitled "1999: The 12" Mixes" containing ridiculously long dance remixes of classic songs with sensible lengths, it would be great. I never thought I would tire of the groove in the 1999 title track, but at 6 minutes it totally wears out. "Mommy? Why are all these songs so damn long?" (motherly voice) because they are. now shut your mouth and dance before i spank your butt! | |
