why do you rate Prince's music?

best song, worst song, great album, bad album etc..

doesnt it all come down to personal taste?

he's a genius. biggrin

I believe that it comes down to Prince's entire career starting with, "For You."
I think that some of us just rate things to go along with the thread's topic for the member that has posted it.
It's hard 2 do anyway.
I do like some songs better than other's, however I love them all so it is nice to go back over all of the music and be happy that it is all there.
Even if the song doesn't contain a famous guitar solo, or is perfectly suited 4 the dance floor, the music has always been fun 2 listen 2, and Prince's lyrics in so many songs touch the heart all by themselves.
Prince is a great writer. cool

Yes it does come down to personal taste, I agree, but some songs are just really really great, and some are just, well, not so great, but even the not so great ones are still pretty good.

clapping I agree completely...







I don't know why I rate it personally lol I mean, he's the best in my entire album collection, but that's not saying too much, is it? shrug
