Don't ask here or on any other Prince site about Kamaustra if you don't want this or another thread to turn into one big vulgar assault on Prince

I like Kamasutra in some particular circumstances

it's tedious more often than not, but i think it's far more interesting and complex than a lot of people want to give it credit for. i can probably count on both hands how many times i've listened to it, but i can't go so far as to bash it the way most folks do. i can't help but notice some really quirky sounds and ideas on it. it's kind of a frustrating listen for that reason.

I like it. Many folks rip apart any instrumental works Prince does, but there are some really cool ideas on this one.

It's a joke.

why?

Anxiety said:

You know why Anx.

DiamondGirl said:

actually, i don't!

I can't listen to it straight thru but if I mix it in with NEWS & C-Note & Project X & Madhouse & any other Prince cds I have that are all instrumentals & then hit random I can listen to it.
That song with the scissors kills me.

What the hell is Project X? Xpectation?

JediMaster said:

Yeah - I can never remember Xpectation so I just call it Project X.

thedoorkeeper said:

Understandable, since it was almost titled Xenophobia. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything!

My girlfriend of 5 years and I broke up the week Kamasutra came out. I can't listen to it. Not without feeling really really sad.

switters said:

Same with others. Except without the gf scenario as a reason. Just really really sad listening experience

Makes SNOOZE sound almost listenable.

It's different. I'll say that.

They used to play it incessantly when you telephoned the 1-800 NEW FUNK service: it was their way of saying:

"Thank you for calling. We suggest you hang up now and save your money. For those of you who have placed an order in the last 12 months, we have absolutely no idea where your copy of Crystal Ball is ... apart from all good wrecka stows. Now fuck off. For the rest of you, please be assured, your credit card details are important to us. Peace and be wild".
