For the life of me i cannot get into this album!
Apart from the excellent "Annastesia" the rest of the album is too gimiky for me. | |

it's an amazing album and is one of my favorites. For a long time it WAS my favorite, but now I don't listen to it as much as I used to.
The arrangements are a bit over the top and the whole album has a sorta otherworldly cartoonish quality to it - but it works. Although.... it sounds very dated at times now. Needs a deluxe remaster!!!! The songs are some of his best and most original. * * *

There are messages in this album, and HIS words have touched many.

its a fantastic album but his perfect moment was Parade IMO- nothing before or since sounds, feels orlooks quite like it and I love it as much today as the day I first bought it at the old HMV store in Oxford St in 1986  |

Not one of his best but definitely above average in his back catalog. My favorite tracks are Alphabet St. and When 2 R In Love. Both are so original. | |

Positivity and the title track are my least faves. Solid album, very cohesive conceptually
Ooops. Yeah, Around The World in a Day was a grower, mos' def. like your new icon Giovanni. cool. We are all so full of  here | |

Apparently president Obama is about to release an album himself and it's apparent that he makes a nod to Prince.

I really enjoy this album, but I wouldn't go this far. It has 9 songs and I only find six of them to be very strong (not too into alpha st, Dance On, and Positivity). So many of his other albums have way more than 6 strong songs.
What really deteriorates this album is the continuous nature of it. I have spent way less time listening to it than I would have due to the fact that it is all on one track. Lovesexy and When 2 R in Love are my favorites on the album, but I rarely want to go through the hassle of skipping to them. I abdicated the throne in Ithaca, but now I am...
