Sick of his own gift?

PE sounds like an album by an artist who is just going through the motions because he is compelled to. It sounds like he's sick of his own gift. Maybe that's why he plays live so much, because it gives him a chance to get his mind of writing and recording.

He certainly seems to be sick of writing interesting lyrics.
We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

It's more like his gift has been MIA for a long time now. An album like PLanet Earth would never have been released if it was by a new artist because no record company would release such garbage. It's like that for a lot of "classic" artists - they get to release new music on the strength of their past accomplishments but many times its so bad as to be almost amateurish and makes their past greatness look like a fluke.

WTF Prince is always playing live even before his first contract with WB and if the case of taking his mind of recording hes got plenty of unreleased music so really he never has to record again if he doesnt wants to he loves making new music

What would U do 2 uplift
As many people as u can?
Sick of my own gift?
Or tired of the complaining..... man

With as many negatives as positives
2 unite or disband the Revolution
I've done all that I can
But I guess.....
It's NOT the Resolution

Guess even when it is Free
U're mind.....is NOT

Yeah yeah yeah... the reason I don't like this album is because my mind is closed to his greatness and his incredible spiritual depth.... blah blah blah... I was the one saying that to people about albums like NPS or 3121, but this album flat out sucks.... this is the worst thing he's ever done far and away.. I can write a poem about that too...

you once pushed the boundaries
and spoke from your heart
now you need permission from Larry
before you even start

you once set the trends
that the rest tried to follow
but I'm sad to say now
your sound's become empty and hollow

if you think he's lost it or isn't the same sound he was in the eighty's, then find another artist more capable of hitting your music standards. lordy. =P
