'The Sun, The Moon & Stars' & 'When The Lights Go Down' should've been singles. Both R masterpieces. |

"when the lights go down" is a damn good song.
it was the most pleasant surprise in a long time to hear that on "The vault" album in '99. I don't care too much for "Sun Moon & Stars", it has some very nice elements and such but it is just a bit too cringeworthy for my taste as the "ragga rap" comes in. and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

"When The Lights Go Down" is one of prince's best! And i dont really like The "Sun Moon & Stars" But it's not a bad song. "Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system" - Bruce Lee |

Sort of. If I was supposed to compile a list of Prince's essential 90s tracks I'd put them on it, just to piss off folks that understand phish about music. | |

I just listened to When the Lights go down, really lovely song but that long
intro wouldn't have made it a favorable single chose If you will, so will I | |

'when the lights go down' is fabulous. not a single in the slightest, but drop dead brilliant. 
'the sun, the moon & stars' on the other hand, is a load of shit. his voice sounds as if he's been eating sandpaper, the rap is awful, the music is crap.  that fucker should never have been released. | |

I love "When The Lights Go Down", but it's hardly single material is it? Sun Moon Stars is cool too..... I even like the rap...  | |

When I first started dating my old boyfriend the very first Prince song I ever played for him was When the Lights Go Down. He is a huge fan of jazz and blues and I wanted to hook his ass and so I told him I wanted to play him something and popped in Prince's "Vault" and then played WTLGD. He was so hypnotized and about a minute into Prince's singing he turned to me with glossy eyes and said "who is this?
I said "PRINCE"! and told him never to question me on the man and why he's a genius. He never did 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |
