"Forever In My Life" or "Adore"?

The heartfelt pledges of eternal love that mark the end of Disc 1 and Disc 2 of "SOTT" respectively. Which do you prefer?

Aw well, I'll play along.

Although I appreciate the sentiment of "Forever In My Life", there's just too much to love about "Adore".
Gotta go with the album closer. wink

forever in my life.

adore is not that special, for me, bar the opening (chorus and first verse), which lyrically is quite wonderful.

otherwise, i kinda find it a bit of a dull tune. boxed

I can listen to Adore and appreciate it but for some reason it's always kind of grated on me.

Not wild on either of them, but I'd have to go for "Forever In My Life." "Adore" bores the pants off me.

I can't believe some of you. Adore is one of the most beautiful love songs this world will ever hear.

His falsetto is absolute bliss, the melody is effortlessly gorgeous, and the song's got just as much heart and soul as the best Motown songs.

And the lyrics? More romantic than any poem could ever promise to be.

It's true - "Adore" does nothing for me. Sorry! I'm not a "soul ballad" person I'm afraid.

As fabulous as I think "Adore" is, I have to go with "FIML" because it's more down-to-earth and believable, and Prince wrote and performed it straight from the heart (it's a shame he could never remain fully faithful to Susannah Melvoin and stop screwing around, though), whereas "Adore" may have just been something he came up with at the top of his head and decided to record (not saying I couldn't be wrong, but to me, "FIML" just feels more utterly genuine).

Plus, while I'm a sucker for "Adore"'s musical richness, there's something about that simple drum machine and ending acoustic guitar in "FIML" that arouses my emotions more than "Adore" ever did.

Forever In My Life on the SOTT video where he acts like he's wiping away tears is great. He should have done "Adore" in that film as well.

I can't believe you cats are dissin' "FIML" like that! Fellas, let me set the scene...Ladies, peep the scenario:

A cat decides he wants to lock it up with his broad. Said dude, armed with a purple rose and his best smellin' cologne (For me, I'd splash on my Old Spice! biggrin , gets 'em every time!) goes up to his shorty and starts pourin' "FIML" out like it was his very last breath, cry, and moment in life with her...

Now, fellas...that shit is off the hook. Ladies, you know GAWDDAYUM WELL U'll be moist between the thighs AND cheeks if a cat came at you with his wedding proposal like that! "YES" from her is a DONE DEAL!

All I know is, "FIML" is my WEDDIN' SOAWNG!

"Adore" sends me to sleep.

IMO, he never should've replaced "Crucial" - that is a fine track!

"Forever In My Life" is by far better than "Adore". The vocal arrangement is superb! And that subtle accoustic guitar as the track fades... just perfect!
