Love or Lolita...The Word, which is the catchiest thing he has done in years, would be a little heavy for general audiences.


Well since it seems like everyone doesn't think "The Word" should be the next

single what do you guys think he should do with this song? I hate to see such a

great song go to waste!!
sad
It's really hard to say without video concept. The Word could be really heavy or really light and fun, depending on the video.

Just on song, I'd go with Love or Lolita. With the right video; The Word. Either way, the song won't go "to waste".

Lolita followed by Fury then The Word as the last.

you picked in my opinion the best and worst songs on 3121.


Love or 3121 would be no1 as i think non-prince fans would really pat attention if they heard these two songs and ask " what is this funky shit ? "

It's starting to warm up. Prince should hit the people with something fun and catchy. " Lolita u're sweeter, but u'll never make a cheater out of me" People will be singing that into the summer. Radio will love it. That song is addictive.

At first I thought Fury for the next single, but should probably be Lolita....

Then Incense & Candles
Then Love

Then Fury


Why does everyone think he'll have 5 or 6 singles, last time he only got 3.

I think "The Word" would definitely be risky, but it would stand out. People really, really respond to this song... if it had the right video to go with it, it could hit with people like some combination of "7", "Space" and "Purple Rain." But who knows, I would hate to see his current momentum stall if it didn't go over the right way.

"Love" is my favorite song in ages, really, I just wonder if it's a single or not... mainly because I'm concerned about what an edit of it would sound like, without both breakdowns, etc.

I have a feeling he'll choose "Lolita" regardless.

It's a tough choice... Lolita, Fury, Love or the Word? hmmm Well, one with Lolita and Love and one with Fury and The Word.

I think Lolita would do better, but the Word is great. Honestly, if you could get Mtv to play more of his stuff, there are 4 or 5 songs that would do pretty well.

cool Incense & Candles i noticed seem to be the one a lot of you picked as one of the worst songs. I think this song will get play because most of the music you hear now has that same vibe. It definitely will be heard more on the R&B stations. This is not one of his strongest songs, but i do think if released as a single it would do ok. I like it regardless. music
