Mellow-Non-Appreciation Thread I do think the whole of the Rainbow Children is a late highlight of Prince's career, but Mellow is not, beyond dull. Was the definate lowlight when I saw him perform it live. Sure Jughead and Wedding Feast are silly, maybe not great songs, but at least interesting. I think Mellow gets overlooked because people have mostly forgot this Prince puke merf | |

I like it. After so much painful, draining dogma on the album, it's nice to hear Prince be so sexy again. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

It's OK. I mean it's decent and listenable. I've heard worse from Prince such as the entire "The Truth" album. Andy is a four letter word. | |

Hell fucking yes! "Mellow" is the VERY worst Prince song ever, in my opinion. The bland neo-soul, the desperate attempt to seem "cool" with the name-dropping, and the sheer lack of cohesion it creates on The Rainbow Children are truly awful!

It's nice, really depends on where your head is at the time, if you think about it. | |

I gotta defend this song, it's nice.
I prefer the album version to the live recording. I agree with wlcm2thdwn, you kinda have to be in the right frame of mind to really enjoy it. | |

Sometimes I can handle it, other times, it gets skipped. Actually most times it get skippped, it does ruin the flow a little. | |

I love the song. Haven´t heard the album version, casue I don´t have the Rainbow chilren album yet, but I love the live version.

We really don´t like the idea that he could have it all." | |
