Is it just glam slam me pt. II

I really love that damn song-- tooo much---

but

is it just me or past a certain part is that song a mixture of brilliantly arranged babble?

....heavyfeatherflickanipplebabyscramwaterripple.....that means i love you.

I think I'll merely agree with you, I sure ain't gonna fight: I love this song, and I'm looking forward to the pending arrival of my tracked copy of Lovesexy, then I'll be able to listen to it over and over if I so desire!! lol

i am SO fucking with you right there man. On my way home from work i was singing the song in my damn head. I love it TOO damn much. Some days i'll put it on repeat ALL DAY. and won't get tired of it. I don't know what it is about that song. I think it's his best ever. I mean, P has some brilliant shit out, but this sounds like he REALLY outdid his self. I wonder if he listened to it the first time and was like "DAMN." cause that's how i was. I'm playing it right now as a matter of fact. I get chills everytime i hear the beginning guitar riff. I want to marry this song and have its babies.

I think thats a fight...or at least a long drop with a sudden stop for you.

Glam ...drab? neutral

shake nuts





Dont tell me... anna stesia is your favorite song on Lovesexy. tsk tsk.

You will bow to the awesome power of the nonsensical lyrics.

lol

surprisingly enough, my favourite song is anna stesia, yep. wink

but the latter stages of alphabet street & glam slam drag the album down a wee bit for me. they are the two parts which keep the album from being flawless, imo.

i even rate dance on over glam slam. boxed

I don't know if it's Prince or the Dr., but that synth solo in the second half is the best Prince keyboard moment EVER!!!! razz

You're a bum...
an anesthetized bum. Period.com. I knew you were an anna stesia fiend- i just followed suit--
my fave(glam slam)= ur least fave
therefore
my least fave (anna stese)= the obvious.


I dont like dance on either--
so i have one question--
do you like the songs endorphinmachine, now and graffiti bridge?

**Just an experiment...

i'll take your slights as being in good nature. wink

i like endorphinemachine very much, but prefer an earlier, unreleased version. Similarly, i prefer the earlier 'beautiful experience' version of now. the album version is okay. graffiti bridge is a pretty tune, but lyrically abysmal.

Glam Slam is another one of those songs that is better live. I don't mind sparse production, but it needs to be funky to work.
I think Lovesexy and Positivy are my favs, from one of my fav albums.

Glam Slam, one of his best pop-melodies ever by Prince. And i love the baroque orchestration and the worldmusic-type of percussion he uses on this song.

One minor point of critism: It would have been ever better when he had used real strings on the song (clare fischer, anyone?)...

I've always liked Glam Slam. It's a feel-good song for me and you can never get tired of those, especially from Lovesexy alone.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I think that a greater amount of the most P tunes sound MUUUUUCH better live-- people talk shit about some of the songs, but Im sure everybody's singing every song @ those concerts...eve3n the ones they dont like usually.

I DO LOVE +, too-- hopefully i'll see that live someday. cloud9
