Not even close. Lovesexy by a mile. Lovesexy is so stylish it makes ones head spin. Prince's:

Hair's better

Outfits are better

Band's better

Stage is better

Lack of ridiculous sculpted stubble is better lol lol lol

I liked the D&P hair and clothing, but Lovesexy is, by far, a superior album musically and lyrically.

Super Difficult choice.
I bought D&P first, and it was knocked out in "Gett Off" and "Insatiable" and "Live 4 Love".
It is one vote in D&P!

Lovesexy. The minute I saw him with that big sexy, fluffed out hair, I litterally forgot my name and my mouth hung for about 6 minutes!

My lips got dry! eek

LOL. Lovesexy wins! If this was 1988....oooh-wee!

Lovesexy. Isn't a clunker on that LP - I actually play the untracked CD most often, even though I have the tracked disc too. Great vibe on that record. To be honest, I can't remember the last time I gave Diamonds And Pearls a spin. There are some songs that I dig on it like Gett Off and Strollin', but I put those on a compilation disc.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

I love the whole Lovesexy album, the sound is amazing, the concept is great: 10/10

Diamonds & Pearls... I love the 5 "big" singles, but D&P includes minor songs like Walk Don't Walk, Strollin, Willing & Able, Push, Jughead, I still rate D&P 9/10, the music is much much better than his latest 4 or 5 albums.

Yeah, I think D&P would be so much stronger with the "other" songs left as B sides and what not. Maybe 9 or 10 tracks only. Also, the original version of Live 4 Love (drool....)

Agree. More true to the uncompromising vision of His Royal Badness. D&P is too calculated. I never listen to D&P anymore. The good songs are obscured by you-know-who. I also feel that D&P did some major damage to Prince's songwriting/composing part of the brain. So much of it is lazy, medicore and musically conformist.

Lovesexy...Im sure everyone thinks the same thing..how well would it have been received if he had some damn clothes on for the album cover..lol..but seriously, one of my favs..I think I'll put the extended version of "I wish U heaven" on the turntable...."Take this beat, I dont mind..got plenty others and they soo fine"....

LOVESEXY. yes
I may not like the man.
I may not like his music after the mid 90s.

I respect his current artistry...I just don't like him.

No hate.

I've only heard one version of "Live 4 Love". What does the original sound like and when was it made?

I really don't care for the threads that compare one album to another. Both of these albums stand alone as great music. cool

Agreed!

I'm not a massive fan of "Lovesexy" or "Diamonds & Pearls", but of the two "Lovesexy" is far superior, especially as about half of "D&P" is frankly dire. That's the power of Tony M.
