GNS	So, is it me, or was/is "The Dawn" kinda anticlimactic? I mean, for so many years, we were all hoping we may "live 2 c the Dawn", (whatever the hell that means). But when Emancipation dropped, the dawn was here, but it felt so underwhelming because (at least for me) the material was so weak. And it seems that ever since then, well the phrase "meh" comes to mind. Any thoughts?

Yes. Enjoy the music, but pay no attention to Prince's nonsensical ramblings and meaningless concepts.

Hey Woe...You guys better snore or somethin', it's better than being breathless at this time of night. That dawn of understanding is right under your nose...

The world as we know it...has no where to go but better. "Emancipation," is great music...being the biased fan that I am...What can I say..."Those that feels it knows it." cool
