What's Your Favorite Track Off ONA? Just wanted to get everybody's feedback as to what their favorite track or tracks are off the ONA CD. Hopefully, all of the NPGMC members have received it; I know I waited a while for mine. But it was worth the wait, ONA is an excellent CD, I absolutely love it!!!
My favorite track off ONA is "Have a Heart". I just love that song, love the melody, love the piano, and the way that Prince sings the song with such emotion and feeling. I especially love the way Prince sings "So what about the heartbreak? Everybody's had one c". Just love that song to death!! "Have a Heart" is the track that I find myself pressing the repeat button on my CD player for, so I can hear it again. Even when I'm not listening to it, that song is going thru my mind, and I find myself singing it even -- lol!!! I hope that Prince sings that song during the celly, that would make me very happy! (Prince, are you listening?). I'm wondering what your favorites are. Feel free to post. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

My favorite track is Arboretum .
IMO it's the only track that is "excellent". Most of the other songs are really good, but not as polished and beautiful as Arboretum. | |

Here on Earth really moves me. Avalanche gets my political dander up. 'Bout damned time somebody called Abraham Lincoln what he is...a racist. ---------------------------------------------

I love "U're Gonna C Me" and "Here on Earth." I'm also diggin' "Avalanche." Those lyrics are really deep. Most artists would not even think to make a song like that. *this is for whoever taught you how to kiss in designer jeans* | |

I really like so many of them, but if I had to pick one at this moment, it would be Pearls b4 the Swine... however the title track probably is my favourite in a timeless sense... THAT voice... *melt* [This message was edited Thu Jun 6 16:06:19 PDT 2002 by Diva] --ยปYou're my favourite moment, you're my Saturday... | |

I love "here on earth"... I think it should have gone on far longer. The build up is perfect and when he sings the verse the songs is spot on but it ends too suddenly. 'A case of u' is excellent. Though I initially believed this to be an example of him rushing... I now really really like 'u're gonna c me'. 'Avalanche' is superb. My favourite ? Well i guess 'here on earth' but it's too short.

RONNY I'm likin' "A Case of U," too. It's kinda hard for me to choose a favorite. I know a lot of people weren't blown away by this CD, but I like how mellow it is. *this is for whoever taught you how to kiss in designer jeans* | |

Has anyone else NOT received their copy, or am I the only one?
And if I contact NPGMC and tell them I never got mine, are they going to send me one, or give me some lip? | |

Avalanche- the newest Prince masterpiece and my favorite track from ONA.
Though Here on Earth, Case of U, Have a Heart, and Young and Beautiful are all great too. | |

"Avalanche"... it awakens the awareness of not only the past... but the present and future as well. The correlations between the claiming of pure innocence of snowflakes and the development of a devasting Avalanche... vs. the lack of responsibility due to human actions. It is something to definetly ponder... and familiarize and educate yourself on. | |

I would email NPGMC and nicely but tactfully tell them that you did not receive ONA yet. Good luck!! RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

My top 3 are the title track, "Have a Heart" and "Pearls B4 the Swine." If I had to pick one though, it would be the title track. | |

"A Case Of U"...followed thisclose by "Pearls B4 The Swine"
quickly followed by "U're Gonna C Me"...oh hell, it's all great!! Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. | |

My favs: Have A Heart, Pearls B4 the Swine (if I hadn't already heard it from the 2001 club I would be even more amazed...but I've already heard it so much that it's less stunning now), and Young and Beautiful. Most posts I've read, people seem to not like Young and Beautiful, but I dig it. Check out The Mountains and the Sea, a Prince podcast by yours truly and my wife.

Tie for 1st Place U're Gonna C Me - even with the 2-way!! LOL Avalanche - so moving, edgy and thought provoking. 2nd One Nite Alone - loved it since NPG gave it to us last year... | |
