duh! those are 10 reasons... and most of them have to do with the prince of "Adore"... instead of the one we are dealing with now... Not that i don't agree with many of the reasons you mentioned... BUT...

What's the NEW prince worth to you if the only thing that has been released 'recently' and you 'love' is "Adore"?
Hell, even that is almost 20 years ago. Are you sure you are not stuck in the past with that 'Adore' prince?

(How'd I do, Abrazo?)

That's why he is worth it to me! I still have all his stuff he has released but I don't need a record that came down with yesterday's rain to see he still has the qualities I liked about him then. Listen, I am not even going to get ignorant like some of you, I was posting what I like and why he is still worth it 2 me. Unlike some of you I don't need Prince to keep proving himself over and over to me. Being an avid fan, I already know what he is capable of and I don't need to nitpick every thing he does to see if he is "worth it". To me the man will always be worth it because I still own his recordings and they are still good to me today. Now, do you understand. Or are you still trying to use me to impress Abrazo?

1. The instrumental at the end of "I Wanna Be Your Lover"

2. The guitar at the very beginning of "Bambi"

3. The sound of stuff getting thrown around at the end of "Gotta Broken Heart Again"

4. The rap in the middle of "Sexuality"

5. "Annie Christian". Sure it's dated. But dang.

6. That damn synth in "Lady Cab Driver".

7. The cover of the 1999 album.

8. "Ladies and Gentlemen...THEREVOLUTION!" "Dearly beloved..."

9. That place where "Computer Blue" ends and "Darling Nikki" starts.

10. Staring at the cover of ATWIAD for HOURS the day it came out.

Did I only say 10? Huh. Have 10 more:

11. Disc 2, Side 2 of Sign "O" the Times

12. The live concert "video" for "America".

13. Realizing after five years of owning it that, waitaminnit, I LOVE the "Come" album.

14. Prince's crazy ass getting carried off stage in a funeral procession on Letterman.

15. Starting the show by playing guitar on a motorboat at Jones Beach.

16. "Vicki Vale...Vicki Vale..." - empty calories at their best.

17. "Purple Rain" at the Grammys. All these years later: wow.

18. "Wrecka stow, wrecka stow, wrecka stow!"

19. The 12" version of "I Wish U Heaven"

20. Just 'cuz, I guess.


See? I'm not ALL pissing and moaning.

Just mostly.
