Here's my breakdown:
Soft and Wet - Cool. Funky, something to tell you what is to come in the upcoming years! The Ladder - For years I thought the name of the girl was Alexia instead of Electra. Named my youngest daughter Alexia because I thought that was the lyric when I was little. Nice track and always stuck out in my mind. Under the Cherry Moon - Great, as is almost everything from Parade era! I Wonder U - Like someone else noted earlier, the first three songs flow so nicely and set up the album so cool. Strange Relationship (outtake version) - I like this version. Sounds cool and the slight lyrical change-up from what wound up on SOTT is cool too. Vicki Waiting - My favorite track from Batman. Still hoping that someday, somewhere, an extended version that picks up where the CD track leaves off will surface. Maybe....someday 
All of Graffiti Bridge, except for JIR and The Question of U - Not bad, but I really don't care much for the title track (too corny!). Jack U Off - I imagine Prince wagging his tongue and doing a little jig during the instrumental portions of this song. It's just really goofy. My Computer - Cool, mellow jam. I like it! In2 the Light/I Will - Don't care for it, I do like the rest of the album and don't care who knows it! Da Bang - This song is funky in its simplicity. Cool stuff! Make Yo Mama Happy - Nice horns on it. But I'm partial to Goodbye, so I tend to fast forward or skip this tune to get to the next track. Dark vs. So Dark - I like Dark so much more. So Dark was an uneeded remix. The song is called dark and the come version is just that....dark! Walking alone in the dark, I see nothing u see
I can be in a park, or flying in the…in the deep sea I wish u’d hold my hand; then everything could b There’s nothing strange, we’re not deranged We only want everyday 2 b a Cosmic Day |

jtfolden said: Graffiti Bridge is actually a much better album than most give it credit for, imo. If you remove all the tracks not sung by Prince you get a fairly solid collection.
Can't Stop This Feeling I Got New Power Generation The Question Of U Elephants & Flowers We Can Funk (w/George Clinton) Joy In Repetition Tick, Tick, Bang Thieves In The Temple Still Would Stand All Time Graffiti Bridge To me, it's a much more enjoyable disc than the 3 that preceded it (Batman, LoveSexy, The Black Album) or the one that followed (Diamonds & Pearls). [Edited 12/21/05 11:36am] Yes I agree (though I think "shake" is a kick ass song too). |

I don't think we talk much about "I'm yours" The guitar work on this & considering its from Prince's first album still astonishes me! | |
