I was spoiled her it live right at his feet at an aftershow at Glam Slam West on the Act 1 tour and the album version just sounded weak to me. What did the 5 fingers, say to the face?

I just bought this album yesterday, and had previously only heard Letitgo and Come, both of which I liked a lot. I'd held off on this one for so long, because I'd heard so many mixed takes on it, and though I've been a fan for a long time until very recently I only had select albums from the latter half of his career. That said, I really like this one, and Space has quickly become one of my favorite Prince songs, and I dig Dark a bunch, too. | |

when i was very young i heard prince diamonds and pearls-thunder stuck and so did get off
but some time b4 prince came 2 tour here i went to the local library and saw 'come' on display, and i borrowed it coz i was very curious about him a couple years back. now i'd prefer to say that was the first time and the best time i had with prince, no vibe is more refreshing than 'come' | |

I've loved the Come album from the moment it was released! I feel that it's one of Prince's best projects -- and far superior to The Gold Experience. | |

I actually loved it at the time of release, but now think it's dated itself a little. The songs I loved then, Come & Letitgo, now sound kind of plastic, and ones I didn't pay attention to, "Race" and "Dark," I really like now. As a whole, pretty good, but kind of cold. |

Love it! The only downside for me being those stupid waves and whispering. 
Overall one of my fave P. albums though. "A Watcher scoffs at gravity!" | |

There's only one thing I would change about this album and that's have Loose! be about 7 or 8 minutes long. That was my shit, but it's too short. | |

Definitely not the first Prince album I reach for...but it is pretty good. I guess it came as a bit of a shock since it was his first album not to have any hits. But in hindsight it is certainly one of his most unique releases. At first I didn't like it but as the years pass it keeps getting better and better. I'm not crazy about "Solo" and "Orgasm". I usually have to turn the volume down when those two come on. | |

SquirrelMeat said: A good album, that could have been a great album. the slave arguement robbed it of greatness.
TMBGITW, Interactive etc. I still think Dark is the weak point. One of P's most boring ballads. OH,NO  Dark is the song that I listen to when I was going through a bad breakup. Maybe u should listen to this gem again  | |
