Prince does Sesame Street. Fucking naive filler. The Jehovah's Witness party album for bed wetters..lol Big Bird with a purple mohawk.

You know I said a similar thing when I first heard it - I think I called it the 'retarded bed-wetting cousin of Starfish & Coffee', but it's fast become one of my favourite on the album.

I'd rather have an album full of tracks like this than a Musicology or 3121 any day.

this is the best i can come up with right now:

[i]Because I turn my eye toward u
Because I seek ur hand
Every other woman envies u
And me every other man

And as the circle of jealousy
Is coming round again
Those prickly-fingered scallywags
that masquerade as friends

make a promise this very night
that they will no longer pose
a threat 2 either one of us
and let the chapter close

4 all the midnights in the world
This one will serve us better
If u choose to be my girl

Like Zuzu's petals, a wonderful life
The 2 of us shall lead
The children of the future have all the,
Spiritual food they need

The secrets that the ones b4
With grace, have come and shown
2gether with love 4 one another
We shall make them known

Remember love, our happy days
Are numbered like grains of sand
Writing twelve times ever more
If I could be your man

Amethyst and rubies, crystals and black pearls
I’d trade them all just to spend with u
All the midnights in the world
All the midnights in the world


Corrections bolded. smile


cry

These are such romantic lyrics. I'd be your woman P. Man, you've got a rap that won't quit. biggrin
Inside of Me, I am Free, Free to be Me.

Reminds me of the aborted "I'll Do Anything" soundtrack material. Schmaltzy swaying piano led fare.

Then he follows up a cool groovy tune like "Mr. Goodnight" with this corny fluff.

don't you hear the music box sound (slightly featured in FBM, then playing this 3121ishmelody-twinkling in Mr. GN)
and this song, All the midnights..., is coming straight from the music box (music clock).
It so figures...

btw: could it be sth like
remember when love and happy days (remember when all our happy days)
OUTnumbered the grains of sand

Filler.

Not the worst thing he's ever recorded by any stretch, but averag at best and best left off an album, ep or 12 inch. A B- rate outtake.
No hard feelings.

Could not agree more! Catchy breezy song
The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Remember there is only one destination and that place is U
All of it. Everything. Is U.

A quote I found on HQ:

Wooah! really perplexed me. That's a good thing by the way. I write songs and this type of chord progression would never run with me, but that's why Prince blows my mind, he made it work and showed no fear.
I bow my head.

I love it! Great melody and lyrics. It is my favorite on the album.
"Did u love somebody
But got no love in return?
Did u understand the real meaning of love?
That it just is and never yearns"

When I first heard the album this was my least favorite track by a mile. But as I was listening to the album this morning, and old gf called me that I've been thinking about for a couple of years, and were going out on later this week. When I turned the music back up this song was just starting, and I heard it in a new completely different light! I now love this song...

it doesn't fit with the rest of the material ..and it does sound like it belongs on a barney episode ..
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81
