DIAMONDS & PEARLS ROCKS! I've been reading that many of u consider the Diamonds & Pearls era like a low flow in Prince's music and inspiration.
I would like 2 know why, seen that I should say that 1990-1992 was one of the tops reached by the man in his career. For the level of the band, the good vibes, the moltitude of live instruments and so on.. MAYULIVE2SEETHEDAWN ---> POPE | |

This was my FIRST Prince album...getting for Xmas in '91, putting it on and hearing the 'THUNDER' chorus blast my ears - i was hook, line and sinker!!! 
 I sincerely want 2 fuck the taste out of your mouth | |

D&P was the first Prince album I've waited for... I got into Prince music in 1990 after GB was released. Through this time I got to listen to all the previous albums but of course also waited for a new one... and it was D&P. I remember buying it on a cassette and listening on my walkman while driving home.
"Thunder" - great memories, till this day I really really like it "Daddy Pop" - still I can live without the song, although the coda is much better "D&P" - the video helped me to like this song but I don't care that much. Sounds like something Prince didn't elaborate on too much. "Cream" - dirty, filthy and you all know it
"Strollin'" - a nice little song... very enjoyable "Willing & Able" - great song, I love the video version too, the one that was shown after the first half of the Super Bowl in 1992 - btw, it was the only American football game I watched from start to finish... "Gett off" - too great "Jughead" - boring "Push" - it took me some time before I got into the song, but now it's one of my favourites "Money Don't Matter 2night" - after getting through the initial shock of seeing "Money DON'T" (I was learning English at that time and each teacher underlined that 'money' is not plural) I got to like the song a lot "Insatiable" - after listening to this song my friend promised herself her daughter (when she's got one) will be named Martha... that sums it all, I guess
"Live 4 Love" - I really enjoy this song but this guitar solo could be longer for my taste
anyway, a great album and great memories... plus I don't think Prince has made better videos since that time 
and why, oh why haven't I seen the D&P show... I remember now, I was in the States there when Prince toured Europe (I'm from Europe)... ______________
