"with you" gets my vote. anybody else? You gotta cut him some slack on that one. That song was just more a reflection of the sound of R&B at that time. There is, however, no excuse for 'The Arms Of Orion'. [This message was edited Sat May 4 10:37:32 PDT 2002 by violator] | |

The Arms of Orion, even though lyrics are kind of cool... "Say it Loud - I'm Black and I'm Proud!!!" - Brother James Brown
"Make my funk the P-FUNK...I want my funk uncut...." Brother George Clinton | |

yes... "the arms of orion"... the only prince song that's so damn sappy, i can't stand to listen to it... it's so saccharine that it causes my teeth to hurt... ugh...  Mr. Ellis Dee-licious, the Official NPGigolo

"Betcha By-Golly Wow"...not the best option to release as the first single on Emancipation...sappiest of the 1990's Prince...
Although, you can make a case for "Until you're in My Arms (Again) from New Power Soul.... | |

Yeah, what he said. AOO is the biggest blemish on Prince's 80s output. It truly blows hard. It blows AND sucks, sucks AND blows. It's consistent in it's juxtaposition of opposition. This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |

Arms of Orion and Graffiti....um....Graffittiii....um...oh hell -- GB are the worst. I damn near break my neck flying across the room to hit the skip button on those tracks. Gives me nightmares of Prince turning into the next Lawrence Welk.  I've gone to find myself. If I should return before I get back, keep me here. | |

Betcha by Golly Wow!, if it counts, since it's a remake.
Sappiest original Prince song... The Most Beautiful Girl in the World.. it's not so much the lyrics, but the music... please don't hit me
(Is it just me, or does Can't Stop This Feeling I Got and Sleep Around sound like something you'd hear at the Gap?) I mean, like, where is the sun? | |

Blue Light isn't sappy... it's sad! Just listen to the lyrics... closely. Plus, I love the reggae sound to it :X I mean, like, where is the sun? | |

Have any of U ever been in love? I'm sure some of these songs Prince wrote when he was feeling sensitive and venerable, and this is how you react! How do you think he would feel if he read this? | |

Although, you can make a case for "Until you're in My Arms (Again) from New Power Soul.... Betcha was not written by Prince. It was done by the Stylistics. So this should not be counted. As for with you. That is an excellent song, please keep in mind when you critique someones art. You cannot gauge it with everything they have created. His second cd "Prince" is one of his best although not my favorite one,(that would be "dirty mind"). It is funny though, Prince has over 23 cd's And everyone all ways jumps on his first and second cd's as if they're his 10th or 12th cd. You want sap try the slow crappy love song from New power soul Until U're In My Arms again. | |

ooh... "until u're in my arms again"... i never listen to NPS, so i had completely forgotten about that one... still not as wretched as "arms of orion," but it does come in at a very close second... Mr. Ellis Dee-licious, the Official NPGigolo

"Diamonds And Pearls" is sappy...even the melody - especially on the verses - is syrupy to me...lol...but, I love that song. And, the video, too.  | |

Its a tie between "Arms of Orion" - which I skip every damn time- and "And God Created Woman..." - another piece of tripe. (Betcha By Golly Wow gets dishonorable mention.) | |
