i like it, very cool techno vibe. about the only song of his like this that i'm nutty about. the hook is so simple, but infectious as hell ("hypnoparadi-i-ise, oh oh ohh" dancing jig) and i like his vocals towards the end cool wink.
For all time I am with you, you are with me.

i love it. it's garish and hideous and campy. it reminds me of a 60 year old las vegas showgirl. i'd kiss this song on the cheek if i could.

I like what's happening in it musically - it's a cool arrangement, and somewhat unique in the Prince canon. But it hasn't aged very well. The 'plastic' sound to it is very dated.

Hypnoparadise was available as a download from the NPG Music Club (when it was still in existence).

Not sure, but there very well could have been. Prince always seems to have more than one version of his songs floating around out there.

I'm with you on that sentiment. "Hypnoparadise" was never one of my favorite tracks either. But I started this thread, because I said in the chatroom that I didn't like this song. A couple of people responded, "Oh, I like that song!" So I wanted to see what the general consensus was.

I'm going to be the odd one here and say Loathe it. It does nothing for me and it bores me silly. If it comes on, I press the skip button.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

If it was on an album, it would be a filler, but I still dig the track. Little too long. U wanna talk about a track that sucks, let's talk "Northside"!
