what the hell is up with the pe cover?

there's no track listing. no info about the songs. no lyrics. sure it's got who played on it but where? what if i didn't have a computer to look all this stuff up? that would really suck. it reminds of how duped i felt when i bought N.E.W.S. 4 exactly 12 or 13 minutes long instrumentals that are okay but drag on at the end like he's trying to make some quota or something. i would have returned it if i could. if i saw it was only 4 tracks titled north,east,etc. i might have thought twiced. not that i don't like planet earth it's fine. not perfect but it'll do. new prince stuff at least. i just think it's unfair to think that everyone already knows about your stuff or that everyone has a computer to review before buying. if i wasn't a fan i'd want to at least have the names because it gives you an idea of what you,re getting.

Yep, instead of putting a small, 5" by 5" lyric booklet in the CD, he'd rather everybody printed off 14 A4 sheets to get the lyrics.

Prince cares.

That looked like I was being sarcastic. It was meant to sound like a 'Hell yeah!' type comment. I hate the written word - it just doesn't convey, does it.

The lyrics on this album are so simple, most people would memorize them within the first few listens. Nothing too inaudible or cryptic on this CD.

Gotta say, I love the Planet Earth CD cover. I love the holograph effect, and how it changes from a symbol to Prince's picture when you view it from different angles. Prince had a hologram cover on his Diamond and Pearls CD, and I loved it back then too. It just looks really cool.

I'm sure he uses enuff water on getting his hair did everyday as well as make-up to "make up" for his "heel" of of a carbon footprint.

I don't care about any booklets, Prince's booklets are always filled with spelling mistakes anyway. But the no track list thing is weird.
