Prince Songs that R not as bad as every1 makes out they r..

.
.
Over the years many Prince songs have been given a hard time by P-fans and non-P-fans alike..

Its not fair...they were not as crap as y'all said no no no! actually none of them were crap nod



Arms of Orion: Hey...I like those sweeping cello's and crashing symbols..U uncultured mofo's never been 2 the opera? ...actually neither have I but hey..AOO is a good song

Catwoman by Cat Glover..it wasnt that bad..was a lil' funky, cute and I liked it..I liked the vid 2..nice tune

Acknowledge Me...and whats wrong with the Prince rap? hmph! its a great tune with fun and and strong beat..I like that song

MadSex...Boy did that song suck neutral

I've always liked Arms of Orion, and know quite a few non fans that really liked that song.

Tick Tick Bang - it's got quite a unique sound to it and it's highly danceable.
Daddy Pop - a song to play at top volume and dance like a mad person around the room to.
Life O' The Party - 'All the purple hippies bang your heads on the one!' How can anyone not like that bit?

Jughead is shit though and nothing could ever save it. Something Funky would have been a better NPG choice for the album.

I love Right The Wrong and I will always. Attempting to do a country rock song for Prince really took guts, and he pulled it off great. The song is a refreshing little singable cherub.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

Maybe if Prince did a live version of Arms Of Orion, on piano. Now that may be really good.

I love The Arms Of Orion too. It was impressive that Prince could write something so different from his usual fare. Some of these people got no hearts. They probably cheered when Bambi's mother got shot.

Newpowersoul and Mad Sex- Really not that bad! Nice beats on both

Hot Wit U- The 'Nasty Girl Remix' is my jam!!

Ronnie Talk to Russia- One problem...WAY too short

Grafitti Bridge (the movie) smile - If you don't take it too seriously it's a fun little movie with some awesome music. Great to watch when you aren't in the mood for anything too heavy
If you will, so will I

Ronnie Talk To Russia is great if you just enjoy it for what it is and don't think too much about it!
I've always enjoyed the title track of Graffiti Bridge. I don't care how soppy it may seem to some.

Black sweat un4tunately is another example of Prince trying 2 capture the 'sound of the moment' and not doin' very well in the process. Its a great song but it sounds 2 much like 'hey, lets try one of those new crunk or rnb or whatever beats' shit

Same thing happened in the 90's when he tried 2 rap and wasn't bad but compared 2 the 'full-time' great rappers of the time Prince's rapping got overshadowed..

Prince is good at whatever he does but is greatest when he is being himself...


I loved Fury.. cool

Generally P's modern stuff doesn't do much for me, but I must admit BS did grow on me. Lyrically it sounds like he wrote it in 2 minutes, but I agree there's a nice humour to it. The title alone cracks me up.

New Power Soul - good, fun, dance song.

Pope - I actually like some of the songs in which Prince is in full rap mode, this is one of them

I Love U in Me - 1st b-side of his I ever heard, loved it immediately

Graffiti Bridge (song) - ***runs and ducks behind a chair***
