Oh and The Rainbow Children kinda divides the people here too.
C'mon guys, are there any albums that are supposedly so... not good that... well,... Let me put it like this. Are there any albums that I shouldn't be looking for to own in my collection if I don't already have them (if so, my bad, I gotta live with it, haha). had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong.

A lot of peeps don't like 3121 or Planet Earth. | |

Karmasutra and Musicology are the only two I can't listen to without hitting the skip button many, many, many times. | |

NEWS is ok, Kamasutra sucks.
NPS has its moments, Chaos & Disorder is crap. Musicology is suprisingly good, 3121 is mediocre and Planet Earth sucks balls. The Rainbow Children is a good album, if you can get past the JW lyrics.

People here still seem undecided about Purple Rain... They've heard it's popular, but some have heard it just blows! ![]() On a serious note... NPS, I would think, by quite a long way. | |

goes to show you how bad chaos and disorder is, people hardly ever talk about it as either good or bad. I didn't like it much, maybe his only bad album. | |

I actually dislike Graffiti Bridge, The Truth, Crystal Ball, RU2TJF, Emancipation, S.N.O.O.Z.E. and Chaos & Disorder more than Newpower Soul. | |

Instrumental work aside, The Rainbow Children put me off new Prince music for a looong time.
I kinda like Chaos & Disorder though, and Newpower Soul has some great moments. | |

in defense of new power soul,"wasted kisses" would be the saving grace of any album,take out the shitty "crowd chant songs"and you would have an awesome EP Like a Gb Major with a E in the bass | |

Oh, come on, there's good and bad about all of them, but the only one that's unlistenable is.. [drumroll]:
KARMASUTRA That's the only one I popped in, took it out halfway and never tried again. (I like NEWS tho, BTW) "We've never been able to pull off a funk number"

Wow! I got some responses. Thanx guys... I can't believe how you're kinda all over the place, though. There are quite a few "hated" albums around here. But I agree with you on NewPower Soul. I just listened to it for the first time yesterday (and you guys wonder why I didn't tell you I had this one, heh). The crowd chants are ANNOYING... "Freaks on this side" actually had some good lyrics, but the crowd chants ruined it for me and now I'm considering not listening 2 it anymore. I'll let u guys know how it goes... but it was the first album I listened thru that I felt like I wished I was either somewhere else or that I could listen to some, I dunno... GOOD music from Prince. If he hadn't put it all the way at the end of the album, he could have gotten a little more sympathy for a not-so-good album. I hate dealing with a bunch of silent short tracks just to get to one last one ![]() had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |

No, because how will you decide whether or not there's any value to them unless you listen to them? As you know, each album has it's defenders, and personally I think there's something of value to be gained in listening to all of them. Even if you don't like them, you'll at least know why. How could you possibly go through life wondering if Kamasutra is as shit as people say it is ? Lemmy, Bowie, Prince, Leonard. RIP. | |

If any more are to come in the future, it'll be because I find them w/o really trying. I found NewPower Soul @ FYE without looking for it or considering it, now I got it. But I'll see whether or not it was worth the money. Still has a few good songs on it, but the majority, not so much. had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong.

I really like: Until ur in my arms again When U love somebody Come On The One Wasted Kisses NewPower Soul and Shoo-bed-oh are okay. But the others, I'm still so-so on. Today I'll decide for sure if I like them enough to keep them. had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |
