One album - One word Thought it would be fun to play a little word association... Just put ONE WORD which captures each release for you; either musically or in the context of Prince's career. This will change each time you try it, depending on your mood and what you're listening to
Here's my first pass: For You - pure Prince - catchy Dirty Mind - silly Controversy - strange 1999 - funky Purple Rain - fruition Around the World in a Day - trippy Parade - class Sign 'O' the Times - brilliant The Black Album - sick Lovesexy - uplifting Batman - cool Graffiti Bridge - misguided Diamonds and Pearls - pop The Symbol Album - weird Come - groovy The Gold Experience - awesome Chaos & Disorder - waste Emancipation - bloated New Power Soul - slick Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic - disappointment The Vault - blah Crystal Ball - uneven The Rainbow Children - organic N.E.W.S - snooze Musicology - crisp | |

In an awesome way. It sounds futuristic and bleak, AKA cold. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

In what way ? I completely agree- cold is a great word to describe 1999. It's production and use of computerised drum machines make it sound very electronic and, well, cold. It's a great sound though. I don't think 'cold' has any negative connotations in this case Put yourself on the worldwide org map! www.frappr.com/princeorg | |

"For instance, this band I'm with now is funky. With them, I can drag out 'Baby I'm a Star' all night! I just keep switching gears on them, and something else funky will happen. I couldn't do that with the Revolution. They were a different kind of funky, more electronic and cold. The Revolution could tear up 'Darling Nikki,' which was about the coldest song ever written But I wouldn't even think about playing that song with this band." http://princetext.tripod....one90.html [Edited 12/29/05 14:48pm] | |
