What's the freakin' point?

I dislike the "darth vader" voice in between tracks.

So anyways. It's a gr8 record. And I don't mind about "the voice." It's not purposeless (unlike the silence.)

I love it. Every time I listen 2 it I feel that I need 2 listen 2 Xpextation as well. I love the vibe it has.

The Rainbow Children

And I love the art work

2 borrow a Depeche Mode song, Enjoy The Silence

..and I love TRC myself; of course my username says it all

And now I understand Ur avatar

theodore said:

If u love TRC, make sure u get the One Night Alone Live 3-disc boxset so u can hear Prince perform the songs live!! Unless u already have it

rainbowchild said:

I love it.

theodore said:

I recently saw that in contrast to the cartoons, dead center of the outside fold Prince appears to be lurking as a still image.. It' kinda cool and yet creepy at the same time. He looks intense and serene all at once. The artwork reminds me of the portrait they used on Good Times....

ejnbmore said:

It is kind of creepy.

But I think it's

theodore said:

it's not just silence, right? at the very end of it, there's a short loop
of the "one one one one one one one one" chant that closes 'Last December'

whatever the meaning might be is unknown but it must have some meaning or
he wouldn't have gone through the effort with all the silent tracks just
to tag that little loop on the album right at the end.

The Rainbow Children is Princes greatest album in many many years. It has Everything that a great prince ablum should - Fabulous artwork, Awesome musicianship, interesting production, Good music, Controvery and most importantly, the true sign of an album of distinct merit - it divides fans enormously!!!

It took a while to grow on me, but I have to agree. It's a proper album as well, works best when u listen to the whole thing at once. I can even listen to "Wedding Feast" now without flinching...
And it contains at least one genius underated prince pop moment - "She Loves Me 4 Me"

rainbowchild said:

holy crap! i never saw that! lol and it scared me when i scrolled down and saw this pic. the cover does look like the paintings in Good Times- i c what u mean.

3121 said:

It's one of my personnal favorites.

Great album from start 2 finish!

theodore said:

He did the same thing on NPS. I think he wanted you to have a short break between the end of the album and it comes back like an afterthought. It is annoying, but that's our boy.

LittleSmedley said:

I cannot listen 2 this album skipping tracks.
I love each song on it.
Now that I bought the CD I think I like it more
than b4

3121 said:

I agree 100%
I LOVE this album, not bothered by the naration either. I never cared much for religion, but I still totally enjoy the Rainbow Children, regardless. Only today I was wondering how great it would sound as purely an instrumental album also, not instead of, but as a different version. I think this could work with a lot of the tracks. AMAZING.I want another one, Rainbow Chidren 2!

bonedaddy said:

Have U heard Xpectation?

theodore said:

well, of course, but that aint what i really meant. I can't listen to that the same way as I can throw on TRC any time of the day, or chilling in the car

bonedaddy said:

Oh... I get it now

tznekbsbfrvr said:

I never noticed that, either, but to be honest I can't stand this album. Indeed, it put me off Prince for over a year.

theodore said:

I still want this CD and The Black Album...need to find these CD's
