I have all of Prince's albums and the one that I never really liked or paid attention to was Come. I just didn't think too much of the single Lettitgo. I liked the remix edit but not the album version. It is not rated as one of his best works. However, I was reading the book of Joshua and decided to take a break from Bible study and waiting for my boyfriend to call me when he got off work. Out of curiosity I decided to listen to Come again. After listening to it I realised how much I had underrated this album. I love the title track, the horns are funkier than some old chinese food left in the refrigerater for months. Space is very meditative and the OOOOOH is very hypnotising. Papa is scary, but nevertheless its a good song. I listened to it again on the way to work and I think its my new favorite Prince album. So tell me what are your experiences with this cd? I don't think its as good as Dirty Mind, Purple Rain, or 3121, but I like it better than Graffitti Bridge and just as much as Diamonds and Pearls.

Come


The title track does thangs to me.... Thangs, I tell you!!

come is my aural yoga. i love every drop. i go nuts for any posters or pics from this era, when he was just on freakin' planet zoot and not giving a damn about reality. i mean, even worse than usual.

One of my fave Prince albums.

I also love the Space universal love remix...

Could do without the typhoon though.

Oh, more thangs. It's less a vibration than a full-on defibrillation.

CLEAR!!!

Does it do the same thing to you that it does to me..make me think "Damn if only youd ended the song when you faded out and got rid of that nonsense talking and fade build back up" which then progresses to "next track..Space...hmm nice, perhaps I mis-judged next track...nope, pretty cack from here in except Letitgo"

That's quite a break from Bible study! I guess the only more sex-driven Prince album would be Dirty Mind and maybe 1999.

Initially the standout tracks for me were "Pheromone", "Race", and "Dark". Within the next month the whole album was like The came TGE and then Well, you know...

One of my absolute favorites I never ever get tired of this album.

An extremely underrated album. And that Universal Love remix is the shit.


the typhoon was unfortunate

COME


SPACE

PHERMONE

I love Come!!

why does everyone misspell Pheromone? I lost my come, accidently left it in an acquitances laptop i was using at an ex's place and they never returned it..

I love Come-my favs are of course the title track, Pheromone, Space and Dark .

PimpandCircumstance said:

Come is probably my favorite Prince album...maybe second favorite if Exodus is included. It mercilessly CRUSHES Dirty Mind! Purple Rain is probably his best album, but I'm so tired of it I'd rather listen to Come. 3121 can hold its own against Come, but I prefer the latter.

I'm always happy to hear some positivity about it...GREAT album!!!

.....

Come is like having a great orgasm if you catch my drift. But for real the Come album is one, if not the best Prince album in the 90's.

FunkMistress said:

You should see what kind of thangs I could do to ya

Come is one of my favorite Prince albums!! My faorite tracks are Come, Space, Dark, Phermone, Papa, Solo and Letitgo. LOVE this album!!!

Oh I looooove the title track!!! It inspires me so.....
