I'm gonna play Elixer first and build anticipation. Next I'll put on MPLSound and dance around to the old skool company. Finally, I'll end my one-man listening party on a high note (fingers crossed) with the album I'm most looking forward to: Lotusflow3r. Lawd, I'm ready for this set to drop NOW!!! listening to new Prince CDs the 1st time is like drinking french wine: first you pour the wine in a glass, then you look at the wine, then you put the glass on the table, then you talk about it before you drink it.  You can tell about Prince's Future , but his Past is utterly unpredictable | |

Correct, but all the while holding a picture of Larry and Tina Graham. Mind you, this is essential!  I have a painting of Larry that I made, but no Tina... I better get to work.  If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

All in order but saying that if I like the first one that much then the others won't get a look in till I feel like a change!
Need to get hold of the album first! [Edited 3/11/09 12:41pm] Sometimes Life is like the post...You just don't get it! | |

I heard you can listen to them separately OR if you start them all at exactly the same time on three different CD players, it creates a 4th album that sounds completely different.
Didn't another band do that one time? Tripping Daisy? Flaming Lips? | |

I'm just going to play the cd's in the order they are in the case. I always do that when I first get any multi-sets. No matter your age, pursue your dreams so that you will LIVE. | |

I'm going straight in for LotusFlow3r cause I can't wait to hear it!!! I listen to Colonized Mind all the time and just can't get enough of it! It's been a long time coming for us to get a real rock oriented record and I know he's not gonna disappoint us.
Next I'll give MPLSOUND a spin and hope it's really got Controversy elements as reported and then rest cause I'm sure between the two I'll be blown away! Then rinse and repeat!!!! The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.
Remember there is only one destination and that place is U All of it. Everything. Is U. | |

I'm going to play them in this order as well, the one I'm anticipating most will come last. Well, I was gonna play it in order, but I think I like this idea.  | |

i'm boring like that, i know. I agree. I'm going to do what Prince tells me to do. 
Seriously though, he would have a preferred album order in the same way that he organises the track sequence. Would you put the CD in for the first time and press random? | |

And if you're listening to Kylie Minogue or Britney or ?, does it really matter what order you listen to it? [Edited 3/11/09 21:27pm] I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. | |

Honestly, I really don't see what the big deal is. 
I read this last night, but logged off and went to bed. I said the other day that I might just put all three in and shuffle them. If I hear all the songs, is the order REALLY that important?!

I think you'd be surprised @ the amount of thought that goes into track sequences on albums. Just ask Thom Yorke! | |
