1. The Rainbow Children -- It's not THAT great. There are countless flaws to it.

2. Lovesexy -- It's his least great 80's album. I don't understand how anyone can say it saved their life, but that's just me.

3. Musicology -- A return to form? Oh hell no. Boring and dated sounding.

The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

Mirabelle	Can't say which 3 albums are overrated - I guess there are more albums underrated. The only song I really, really don't like is Tick Tick Bang from Graffity Bridge I love Prince and chocolate - in that order

Musicology's the only one that springs to mind. Hype and wishful thinking led some of the more simple minded folks out there to temporarily hail this as Prince's fourth straight "return to form".

Albums held in high regard...

Dirty Mind
Controversy
1999
Purple Rain
Around The World In A Day
Parade
Sign O' The Times
Lovesexy
The Gold Experience
The Rainbow Children

Any more?

Out of those I'd say Controversy, TGE and TRC.
Around The World In A Day I never quite "got", either.
