Sign O' The Time?

Ok.. we know that much of Prince's best work is achieved in the littlest amount of time - Lovesexy was brought in as a quick replacement to the Black Album, many of the Purple Rain tracks were written quickly in bulk.. with When Doves Cry being written in a night - or half a night we are told.

What I'm wondering is... if there is a direct link over the whole of his work between time spent creating it and the success it has?

Maybe Prince's next album shld be written on a holiday weekend? Or maybe jst on the flight travelling there... and it'll be a chart buster!#

(corrected - sorry.. jst had sott in my head)

Lovesexy was the "replacement" for the Black Album.

And, no - I don't think there's any correlation between the amount of time put into creating a track and it's quality.
