i'm not originally from mpls, so no...even if i was, i'd be too young to see anything (i was only 3 when the movie was being made).

Falling In Love
Soft & Wet
Crazy You (screaming for a country remake)
Just As Long As We're Together
My Love Is Forever
I'm Yours (nice lil' cut)

Man, this album is better than most people think . . . As a matter of fact, "If eye Was The Man in Ur Life" and "Reflection" has the same kind of vibe (to these ears anyway), which is why I dig those tracks so much.

Great album all things considered. It shows that he was diverse from the beginning. A couple of the tracks have a definite "disco" feel, but some of Stevie Wonder's tracks from this time period do as well.

I kinda like the fact that "Crazy You" is so short. It leaves you wanting more. Hit the repeat button on that one.
I've always liked "My Love Is Forever", especially the doo-do-do-do-doos in the beginning. It's cool to go back and listen to these tunes.

I hardly play it, but after reading this thread I thought I'd put it on.

THere aint a song on there I don't like, bar maybe that cheesy intro. But even that is cute. Play In Love and you find yourself singing it all eve.

Great album.

"Soft & Wet" is one of my all time favorite Prince songs.

I'm surprised no one's mentioned my other favorite song on there - "So Blue". I would've loved to hear him do that song in his acoustic set.

No the BEST slow jam on there is "My Love Is 4ever" a very very underrated cut.

I'm Yours is the highlight/climax of the album.

He basically stated his guitar dominance for the next 25 years + with this one.

Soft & Wet is one of my fave P songs!!! I love this album, just hearing how his style has evolved over the years is amazing. And to be sooo young and be so talented is also amazing.
