This was inspired by the songs that are too short thread.

In my opinion....

Temptation
Sometimes It Snows In April
Thunder
and
*sometimes*
Purple Rain

are too long.

It doesn't mean I don't like them, just throughout these songs I find myself spacing out and not really listening to it.
I like them though.

When doves Cry. That extra part always bothered me at the end...I thought the length was just perfect on the Hits/B-sides.

Clorine Bacon Skin
Joint 2 Joint
The Greatest Romance Ever sold (on Rave In2 the JOy Fanstastic)
Wedding Feast

the ending part of purple rain

I tend to space out during Purple Rain also.

'Soul Psychedelicide'

"Sleep Around" and "I Could Never Take The Place of Your Man" (LP Version)

i hope this doesnt mean i wish it was shorter because i dont

21-24 (the dopamine rush suite) 18 minutes and 43 seconds!!!

"America" long version. Twenty something minutes. Damn. At first when I got it, I dug it that it was that long. But, after a couple of listens, I was through with it. Never been that crazy about that song anyways. Album or 45 version.

A few people I've talked to hate that song, they tell me that it's the worst song that Prince ever wrote. I dunno, I kinda like it; it reminds me of a George Clinton jam.

Anyway, I can't stand how long "D.M.S.R." and "Automatic" are. The stream-of-consciousness aspect of "Automatic" is intriguing and all but the song isn't musically satisfying enough for me to endure the whole thing.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I like the song. I'd have just taken it down to about 5 or 6 minutes.

COME! waaay too long sheesh...

i enjoy the PR solo though.

violator said:

It is kind of a long song, now that you mention it.

psychodelicide said:

haha when i heard him mention this in 'joy in repetition' i hadnt heard the actual song

i must admit that when i finally heard the song
it was soooo not was i expected

i dont like it too much 'is there an emoticon for blush'? =p

maybe its just because its not the kind of song i imagined it to be

I know! But When Doves Cry is as perfect as it is! I almost died when I heard the edited version! That day was the worst day in my life!

now me not only guilty

I hate when he has a song that just bumps and then all of a sudden he breaks into a musical and go on for ever or you'll have a song like If I was the man in your life that is so short and to much instrumentel. I love that song.

blackguitaristz said:

I totally agree with u. It is 2 damn long. I have tried 2 listen 2 it several times over the years and it is just annoying after about 7 minutes.
