Prince Worst album survivor round one vote now!!!

Ok guys heres a twist on the Suvivor threads, Here we are going to establish the absolute worst Prince album ever made (official releases only, no bootlegs live jams, concert recordings, internet only and anything not sold in general record stows) I will list 10 albums and you are to vote for the one that is the least worst of the lot (ie the most bearable, least of many evils) until theirs one left.
Heres the first 10, I am sure you will mostly agree that these are bad and and your least favourite is in amongst them.

In No Order

Chaos and disorder
N.E.W.S.
The Rainbow Children
New Power Soul
Planet Earth
Graffiti Bridge
Rave until the Joy Fantastic
Old friends for sale (The Vault)
Emancipation
Come


Let the voting begin

i personally don't mind any of these albums, but that's just me shrug nutty. if i had to chose one i'd "save", it'd no doubt be the vault...old friends 4 sale cuz it's my personal favorite of all of them listed shrug thumbs up!.
For all time I am with you, you are with me.

Let's not fuck around for weeks on this - let's just get straight to the point:

king Winner of the most fucktard album Prince every made: New Power Soul (no dramatic drum-roll required)

Before burying this turkey for eternity, lets salvage the near-perfect The One, and the other 2 rays of light that are suffering in NPS's ocean of blandness: Come On & Wasted kisses (hell even Until Ure In My Arms Again deserves to be on a less-crap album than this) - and we'll replace those 4 with 4 other putrid NPS-type-levels-of-shite tracks that unfathomably made their ways onto better albums: Wedding Feast, Graffiti Bridge, My Little Pill, Life Of The Party. 4 pieces of shite that deserve to be buried on and with this disaster of blandness...

tombstone R.I.P.

There, it is done... wink

I am not going to waste weeks on this shite as one man says, I chose 10 albums that might fit,
Basically you have 24 hours and then I eliminate an album, so we know the "fucktard album" b4 easter.
Oh and my vote is Come

I love this album, but I know the album has its share of detractors (all because of Solo) come on this is a great album.

But so far the candidate for mercy is The Rainbow children (why oh why confused )
Like I said tomorrow 8PM Nz time, we move into round 2

The Rainbow Children is the best of that bunch, though I agree that a good few others of those should be saved too !

i struggle to really class old friends for sale as an album...i like pretty much every prince album, each has something to offer; but offs is just nothing, except for one great track - she spoke to me.

to me it feels more like a single release, with a bunch of pretty bland b-sides that serve as nothing. (though i once thought this about rainbow children - and now love it except for the horrific shite of wedding feast)
Wouldn't you love to love me?

I'm with you on that one!!!

The only others I don't get on with are N.E.W.S and and really big push maybe the Vault.

The others are brilliant in their own special way and I think you will find that many of us will NOT agree that these are bad albums and that you may be on your own with this one!!!!

You would've got a better and cleaner result if everyone had to choose which one had to GO and work up to what ends up being the best (of, in you view, a bad bunch!)

Hands down "The Raiwbow Children" is the worst,for all of its stupidity, lack of any creativity, and all its doofus bombast.

save Come, its actually a pretty decent album

so these are your top ten worst albums??? I can't say Prince made a bad album. I do like some albums over than others but that does not mean that I don't like it. But I'll pick N.E.W.S only because it's an instrumental album.

Save The Vault. Great vibe on this cd and "When the Lights Go Down" is a Prince top twenty song.
