"adore" adoration thread

i was reading elsewhere on this site someone wasn't feeling this song.sure everyone is entitled to their opinion,likes and dislikes and all that is fine. but this is my personal favorite song of all time(so they're nuts,lol!).the lyrics to me is what prince music is all about.an everlasting love to a fault. you can burn up his clothes but don't mess with his ride.this is the single best line ever written imo.and strangely it doesn't hurt the song's sincerity because everyone has their limits,no.all the metaphors and innuendos are awesome.a big crescendo of emotions before the song breaks down and p does his crazy vocals techniques then he(and the song)really go off.and the cool thing is he never gets too carried away with it all(as he often does).the song shows a great depth and restraint in p's voice.probably the best,fine tuned prince vocal ever.the little keyboard samples,folks talking in the background in the second verse,the atmospheric horns.this is classic r and b people.the kind of song only prince would make.from the smooth creep in intro to the angelic choir voices at the end i love every inch of this song.love is too weak to define how much i adore "adore".your thoughts?

They know this is serious
I ain't fuckin' just 4 kicks
No,this condition I got is crucial, crucial baby
U could say that I'm a terminal case

This is one of my all time favorites, as far as slow jams are concerned. The words were so vivid. I could picture every word of this song. He was truly singing from the heart.

I too have always loved this song and I have heard so many people choose it as their first dance wedding song that it certainly must resonate love and romance from the heart. He has several hundred love songs, but this will always be my favorite.

Adore is and will always will be in my top 5. This is the first song that made me a crazy Prince fan. I use to listen to it over and over again. Adore = sheer greatness. I tought his voice in this song was one of the best I've ever heard. I also can say Adore is one of Prince's best.
Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U.

Baby, yes
Until the end of time I'll be there 4 U
U own my heart and mind - I truly adore U
If God one day struck me blind
Your beauty I'd still see
Love is 2 weak 2 define - Just what U mean 2 me

From the first moment I saw U
Ooh, I knew U where the 1
That night I had 2 call U
I was rappin' till the sun came up
Tellin' U just how fine U look
In a word, U were sex
All of my cool attitude U took
My body was next - U made love 2 me
Like U where afraid Was U afraid of me?
Was I the first? Was I your every fantasy?
That's why

Until the end of time I'll be there 4 U
U own my heart and mind
I truly adore U
If God one day struck me blind
Your beauty I'd still see
Love is 2 weak 2 define
Just what U mean 2 me

When we be makin' love
I only hear the sounds
Heavenly angels cryin' up above
Tears of joy pourin' down on us
They know we need each other
They know U are my fix
I know, that U know that I ain't cheatin' baby
They know this is serious
I ain't funkin' just 4 kicks, no
This condition I got is crucial, crucial baby
U could say that I'm a terminal case
U could burn up my clothes
Smash up my ride, well maybe not the ride
But I got 2 have your face
All up in the place
I'd like 2 think that I'm a man of exquisite taste
A hundred percent Italian silk imported Egyptian lace
But nothin' baby, I said nothin' baby could compare
2 your lovely face
Do U know what I'm sayin' 2 ya this evening
I'm just tryin' 2 say
I'm just tryin' 2 say

That until, until the end of time
I'll be there 4 U
I'll be there 4 U
On my heart, on my mind, (truly adore U)
I truly adore U (darlin')
U don't know what you're mean 2 me
Baby, (until the end of time)
Baby, (I'll be there 4 U)
Baby, (U own my heart and mind)
'Til the end of time I'll be there 4 U
(I truly adore U)
Adore U (adore U)
Can I talk 2 U? {{chorus repeated in background}}
Tell U what U mean 2 me
Every time U wander
I'll be your eyes so U can see
I wanna show U things
That I show no other, I wanna be
More than, more than your mother
More than your brother
I wanna be (like no) like no other
If U need me, I'll never leave
I know, that U know, without U there is no me
There is no me
Without U there is no sea
There is no shore
Love is 2 weak 2 define how much I adore
U, child
U, child
The last words U hear The last words U hear

(until the end of time)
I'll be there for you, baby
(until the end of time)
Be with me darlin' til the end of time (until the end of time)
I'll give U my heart - I'll give U my mind
I'll give U my body (until the end of time)
I'll give U my time (until the end of time)
(until the end of time)
4 all time I am with U
U are with me
(until the end of time)
U are with me, U are with me

In my top 3 definitely. The song is exquisite. I remember some friends dissing the album for not having that "Prince sound," but flipping out when they heard Adore. SOTT was one of the first cd's I ever bought, and I remember listening with the headphones on, and being amazed at being able to hear the clicking of the keys on the organ in the intro.

Sorry to piss in the pool but I have now placed Scandalous and W2RILV over Adore as my all time favorite eighties ballad. Why? Scandalous is so much more sensual and personal than Adore, it's him taking the seductive role to the max . I now view Adore as the over the top love puppy song, too much syrup for my now refined taste. cool
