I generally listen to Lotusflow3r and MPLSound separately (days or weeks apart) depending on when the mood strikes me. I really only listen to Elixir on Crappy Protege Day.   Exactly!  I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. |

I think us Prince fans have a special talent for that. If I heard "Take Me With You" etc. in any other context....  Not this one! I have Carmen's album, had Mayte's but not sure I still do . . . Had Vanity 6's debut, never owned a Sheila E. album . . . just never went for the protege thing. I did love his first album with Mavis 'Time Waits For No One,' but alas, someone stole it from me . . . .  Still trying to replace it. . . .
I have singles and remixes but other than The Time, it's songs, not new artist he does better with. I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. |

blackielawlessrules said: I like all the discs. LotusFlow3r is my fav but MPLSound ain't a bad album either. Nor is Bria's disc. I think people here give her a hard time with no particular reason...I mean at $11.99, you basically get her album free...why all the harsh words about her?
Because there is no talent there. A Tamar disc would've been appreciated . . . . Why do we get this? Because THEY are sexin? I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. |

sweething said: Tame said: I'm not the type of person that wants another female to turn my lover on, as in, "Here I Come." I feel that that plays too much with passion's stove.
 Women are from venus, men from mars Yeah, that's probably the only answer, because a man can easily convince himself that being stimulated by many and faithful to one is healthy thinking, yet in paralell, if a woman agrees with him, she is giving him away in pieces to his fantasies. I can't see where the devotion is. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

I still haven't listened to the Elixer CD... I have really bad expectations,
but I am listening to MPLSound and LF equally. I like those.  Prince 4Ever.  | |

A woman cannot force or dictate...what we can do is make it so we're the best thing he can think of...inspire him. | |

Imago said: I don't think it's meant to be played in a specific order. I honestly think the combining of the albums is strictly a packaging and distribution scheme to sell the product.
These are clearly distinguishable albums between each other with no sequential order among them and nothing combining them into a cohesive theme. Lotusflow3r proves that Prince can be supremely proficient and write two remarkably different albums at the same time with great quality, and throw in a third filler album just for kicks. Gotta love Prince. [Edited 8/23/09 20:47pm] Exactly. Apart from calling Elixer "filler" - it's true that it certainly has no "highlight-status", but it's a cool, nice, smooth album and she has a lovely voice. Not stunning. And that's what I like about her. Not a powerhouse like Rosie Gaines or a show-off like Christina Aguilera (or how you spell that cow), who just tries to hit as many different notes on one beat as possible - which doesn't make a good singer (only), but who rather uses her voice as an instrument and as an addition and underlining to the music. .

Someone expressing their feelings is not attempting to force or dictate, it is merely saying that sometimes a foundation of understanding is a "Hard Truth." Romance and a light hearted love has to know there is something safe beneathe them that they can build on. "The Lion Sleeps Tonight... | |

When I first bought the set, I loved MPLSound, but now...not so much. My playing order is usually LotusFlow3r, Elixer and MPLSound. Dyes Got the Answers 2 Ur ?s
