Since I'm from an island I wouldn't mind being banished there. I just don't understand all the hate!!! It is on my ipod twice. i love the fact it's on your i-pod twice!  does that mean you have to listen it twice every time you hear it, just to convince yourself it is actually any good. 'yeah yeah i think it's good but i'll play it again just to be sure'  Sometimes U feel like "clockin' a freak on a low pro, u know discreet!". I know I do. When  go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all  up in the house but when log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming! | |

 Just. Wow. IMO, WDC is Prince's best song EVER, and Digital Garden is his absolute worst. Saying they are equal is just  . But, to each their own...
Digital Garden is not nearly as good of a song as When Doves Cry but its stripped down arrangement, lush synths, original and beautiful vocals give me the same rush of artistic excitement I felt from Prince when I first heard When Doves Cry. To each their own indeed. | |

Take Me With You - Not sure that it's all that unpopular, but it does seem to be the red-haired step-child of Purple Rain. I think it's one of his great pop songs.
Forever In My Life - Again, this may not be totally appropriate because I know lots of folks love it, but I do think this song doesn't get enough recognition for its terrifically clever arrangement and for being such an outlier for him lyrically. White Mansion In This Bed I Scream | |

PoomPoom P Control to name a few. I thought p control was a popular cut. Put it this way, anyone who doesn't like this song should be dragged out into the street and shot | |

novabrkr said: Some good candidates on this thread already, I'll add a few to my list:
* In Love (always regarded this one as the best of his early output, great synths) * Do It All Night (not hated, but hardly ever mentioned) * Hello (I think people just dislike it for the title...) * Life Can B So Nice (is there anything like this one, really?) * Sexual Suicide (the more sinister cousin of "Girls & Boys") * Rockhard In A Funky Place (criminally overlooked, better than most stuff that ended up on SOTT) * Partyman (why this is never mentioned when discussing his classic hits, is bayond me) * Vicki Waiting (reminds a bit of WDC actually) * Lemon Crush (one of his best commercial-sounding pop songs) * Sex (just amazing!) * Lovesong (pretty damn inventive) * Elephants & Flowers (one of his best vocal performances) * She Spoke 2 Me (loved by some though, ignored by most orgers) * Girl 6 (one of his best 90s funk tracks along with...) * Get Wild (oh fuck yeah) * The Return Of The Bump Squad ("oh fuck yeah" squared) * In This Bed I Scream (everybody was raving about this one back in the day, yet it seems like it was mostly forgotten) * 2Morrow (the cousin to "She Spoke 2 Me", great employment of the TMBGITW -sample) * Comeback (another completely forgotten gem) * The Sun, The Moon and Stars (amazing drum programming) * Wherever U Go, Whatever U Do (one of his most succesful employments of the sparse Linn-sound on a slow song on his post-80s output) * The Work (people seem very divided on this, I think it's a classic) * Planet Earth (the juxtaposition of the anthemic first part and the W&L / "Dream Factory" -influenced middle section is just staggeringly beautiful) * The Morning After (I'm quite positive this one will be more hated in the future, hah) I guess "Hello", "Sex", "Lovesong", "Girl 6" and "Wherever U Go, Whatever U Do" are the ones that are outright "hated" most often. Tsss. this list is tight!  i've been i love with LCBSN from the moment i heard it. the drums are sick. | |

I think Around the World in A Day is the most underrated album. Mosts artists (in every medium) just give you more of what you already have of theirs. He went out on a limb and that was brave. Anyway it's why I can play 4 CD's of his in a row and not go crazy. | |

So as far as songs go, I recomend all the songs that most people don't know from that album. (Around the world in a day, Paisley Park, etc..) | |

So Dark fits the meaning and tittle, cuz it's more "dark" sounding. To me it's the better version. Love it. Some people think I'm kinda cute
