Chaos and disorder

What's so wrong with "Chaos"? OK, "I like it there" and "dig u better dead" are crap, but the rest is really nice and different: 4 example "same december" and "right the wrong and "had u" are songs, that don't fit in2 any other stile prince had used before: i give it a 6,5 out of 10 Rating. Thats more than "Rave" and "Diamonds" get in addition. Lets hear it 4 al lil chaos!!

There's nothing wrong with Chaos & Disorder... it's just a fine album... the titletrack is great, especially if u know the live-version of Peach from the 1993-concerts...

And in my opinion there's nothing wrong with I LIKE IT THERE, DINNER WITH DELORES,I ROCK THEREFOR I AM, INTO THE LIGHT, I WILL & DIG U BETTER DEAD...

Songs like SAME DECEMBER & ZANNALEE are even beautiful, but there's one slight problem on the album...

listen to RIGHT THE WRONG and after that just put on the John Denver classic TAKE ME HOME COUNTRY ROADS...

damn! once u heard both songs, you'll never be able 2 listen to RIGHT THE WRONG without thinking of mister Denver...

but it's a fine album anyway...

like KMOJ said In Minneapolis Minneasota in 1996 "he's releasing his debut album entitled "emancipation" go ahead brutha. Not since the release of 'Chaos & Disorder', and believe me guys that album was chaos and disorder"

The only good trax were : I Rock Ther4 I Am, Dinner With Delores, Had U.

BUT WE HAVE 2 REMEMBER HE DID NOT RELEASE THAT ALBUM INTENTIONALLY. JUST 2 GET AWAY FROM WARNER BROTHERS.

'Right The Wrong' is the only poor track on it.but it's heart is in the right place.

I like the title track, if i burn a prince CD with a rock feel i always put that on there along with 'i like it there', which despite what Jonisinging says, does NOT suck.It had a contempory indie/rock feel to it IMO and i really like it.Short and sweet.

I think "Dinner with Delores" is overrated. My fav tracks are "Into the light/I will". Overall this is a good album.
"May U live 2 C the Dawn"

Chaos and Disorder gives me a headache. Taken separately, the songs are alright. Together, it sucks ass.

"Had U" can hardly be called a "song",it's more like a lame segue placed at the end of the album (like "Orgasm" on the 'Come' album).

With the exception of the charming "Dinner With Delores",the rest of the album is forgettable.It's obvious that this was just a throwaway album clearly designed to fulfill his contract.Songs like "Right The Wrong" and "Eye Rock,Therefore I Am" are simply atrocious.Don't kid yourself,we all know Prince can do better than this crap.

I never liked Dinner With Delores. The Same December and Zannalee are the only songs I rate at all.

Look, people, the album was good, so let's just leave it at that. I mean, I thought it made a fine swan song to Prince's honorable discharge from WB. What could you expect more thatn to have songs to get up & groove to? Well... then again there are those songs with messages & all that but I think he was just giving us something to dance to before his exit.

That album is simply okay.. it still leaves u hanging, its got a dull side and half of it is cheesy.. but positive thing in the album is that its a good prince "Rock" sounding cd.. very cool in that aspect, other than that..its something that harldy ever gets a spin..

Dinner With D is the best on the cd

Eye think Rave and Diamonds had more to listen to than Chaos..

on Rave- TGRES and Eye love u but.. and Man o war is more solid than ANYTHING on Chaos..

and eye'm sorry but D&P also had more concrete songs than Chaos.. Cream, Money dont.., Live 4 Love and Strollin are far more "interesting"..
