Crucial

Are there any "orgers"out there that love this song. I think "Crucial" is so underrated.

One of Prince's greatest gems that never got the exposure it deserves!

I 100% agree. I believe this song will be a hit now if it was ever re-released.This song is wonderful.

Never did like this one I'm afraid. If anything I'd say it's overrated.

Anyone else out there prefer the bootleg copy of this track over the clear official version on The Crystal Ball? Maybe it's nostalgia or something, but I love the crappy sound quality on the boot.

I've only heard the CB version. Maybe that's why it never did much for me.

Why the F did he edit it for CB?

I love this version. It was supposed to go on Sign The Times until he recorded Adore and discarded Crucial. Good choice.

I like both bootleg versions equally to the released version. The unreleased versionmust have sounded too long to Prince's ears.

the first time i heard it from a boot with terrible quality. i still loved it!



the lyric that sealed the deal for my was the hook build :

" I AINT SAYING YOUR BETTER BABY, I AINT SAYIN YOUR NOT
I AINT SAYIN ANYTHING TIL YOU STOP
PLAY THAT FORTH AND BACK, CAUSE BABY I NEED A JACK
OF ALL TRADES
A MIND BODY WELL MADE OOOOO CRUCIAL!!!

Yes, because he watered it down just like almost all the other tracks on that 3 cd set. disbelief
