fav tracks..everywhere and the guitar playing on the sensual everafter. the funk on 1+1+1 is 3 (tho it sounds more like erotic city on the album version), the funk on the everlasting now and the soul on last december. the jazziness of TRC is top notch. it took a while 2 get in2 myself but once i left the digital garden ..smooth!!!

don't take it 2 seriously about the religious doctrine on it, if u listen closely as 2 the ones being banished (it was referring 2 a certain x wife and some of his former bandmates)

It even states that Prince finds Mani and assimilates her to the JW doctrine, and then later in Wedding Feast, you hear what sounds like Armageddon taking place. The digital garden is destroyed and the non-believers die. It's all there.
The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

the deconstruction can b interpurted in so many different ways 2 anyone. someone not doing drugs anymore and embracing spirtuality can b their own digital haze deconstructing.

but even if it's about becoming a JW beliver, shouldn't deter from the music and direction of the music that TRC is IMO
