Overated & Underated Prince stuff... This thread will be controversial, but HELL... that's me! 
OVERATED STUFF! Lovesexy (album/era) This album is overated by fans in my opinion... obviously songs such as Alphabet St. & Annastesai are great! but there are also songs such as Dance On, I Wish U Heaven, Positivity etc... which i don't like. And i hate the front cover! and i think the whole Lovesexy era is overated by fans! The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker & Condition of the heart I don't get it... i don't like these songs, all fans praise them as classics and i just don't see it. None of them are catchy and both lack a great melody in my opinion... BORING... For You (album It isn't THAT bad... but, compared to the "prince" album it sucks... no real hit's. Poor melodies in most songs except i'm yours, S&W and Crazy You. Parade Era YUK!... i hate the gay outfits and all the screeching. It makes Prince look like a "pop star" rather than a serious musician. (However songs such as Girls and Boys & Kiss are AWESOME!!) Thieves in the temple Sucks... UNDERATED STUFF Musicology (the song) This song is TOO funky! right from the "eeuwh" at the start... right to the finish! just listen to the beat and the funk... GROOOOVY! Musicology album Nearly a CLASSIC in my opinion... it has everything, pop/funk/jazz/rock & roll/ballads... what's not to like? Uptown I know most fans like this song... but it doesn't get the respect it deserves in my opinion. Most of you say that Head is better... and i TOTALLY dissagree... UPTOWN ROCKS! My Name Is Prince Just listen to the lyrics of all the verses... one of the best in y opinion! The Hits The B Sides May of you have been moaning about this package... it is the BEST greatest hits album by anyone ever!! it appeals to non fans because of the hits... and it appeals to the hardcore fans because ofthe B-Sides... SHOW SOME RESPECT lol | |

Lady Cab Driver YES... slightly Yep, it's cool, but overrated. Girls & Boys No! It's just okay. I'm not a fan of the same melody verse/chorus theme that plagues what would otherwise be Prince's best songs. Sign o the Times (the song) NO WAY! this is one of his best songs ever!! Again okay, but I was disappointed in the live versions I saw last year. Call My Name Agreed Underrated: Musicology Do you mean the song? if so, i AGREE! Yes the song. Chaos & Disorder (album) YES!! Come (album) it is slightly underated Jam of the Year Song? Tour? Check this song out at:

I think the most underrated is the Truth album. I think it being packaged with Crystal Ball is part of the reason for this. However, there are some gems on that album - Man In A Uniform (so sexy and funky), Don't Play Me and One of Your Tears (sooooo sultry).
The Symbol album was also underrated. Sans the rap, there are some incredible songs on there, among them, the most underrated 3 Chains of Gold. That song is a rock opera and the guitar is masterful! perfection is a fallacy of the imagination... | |

Let me guess, I bet you liked the N'Stync a few years back! I don't know who you're talking to Tricky2, but I am 30 years old and have been a Prince fan since I was 8 - that's 22 years. I am not a newbie. I have most of his official releases (couldn't do Chaos) and a lot of other stuff too. I thought about the questions and this is what came to mind at the time. My choices are very underrated, and as a musician I understand the complexity of the music there. Most of Prince's older stuff receives praise, but people like you who ignore the newer stuff have missed some great music. It's not all great - but they are some magical moments. Stop being such a Prince snob. I hate how certain Prince fans think that if they name bootlegs, rare mixes or anything pre-Purple Rain that they're somehow superior to people who like anything else. People like what they like. perfection is a fallacy of the imagination... | |
