I love the entire album! It was a strange one to take in when I first heard it at 11 years old but it grew on me.

If I had to pick my favorite track from this record it would defiantly be "When U Were Mine".

Uptown.

In 2001, Prince launched the NPGMC. There was a launch party in Chicago that had Millenia and The Fonky Baldheads performing. After the guys were done performing, we thought it was over and then we see Rhonda Smith take to the stage. I was like: What is Rhonda doing here?

Next thing I know, here comes Prince dressed in a red and black NPG shirt. The first song he did was Uptown.

Well, that Ven, KICKS ASS! Good for you!

the whole album is a masterpeice.....

fav songs are.
when u were mine
dirty mind
uptown
head

I can't choose a song.

Perfect album.. 10/10.

This is also his shortest album isn't it? No song longer than 4 minutes. This is also one of the first albums to have sticker on it from my understanding. I remember my Uncle hiding with the Rudy Ray Moore Records when I was little. I got a whipping for listening to it. I had no idea why at the time my granny was in a frenzy that I was listening to a song called 'Head'

I LOVE Dirty Mind; the album that made it nice to be naughty. If I had to choose one track, like Tiki, it would be When U Were Mine.

agreed 100%

A tragically neglected masterpiece!

I agree with the 10/10 comments though my favorite song from the album is Uptown.

thedance said:

Favourite song?

HEAD.

Obviously

"Head". It's not just my favorite song from that album, it's my favorite Prince song.

I hear you Andy! I used to spin HEAD back in my DJ days - the audience would go wild! Pure funk sleaze, I´d say.

When You Were Mine! Yes!

But you are

Gotta Broken Heart Again! Are you guys dead?

I played a joke on one of my non-Prince fan friends using this album...since "No More Candy 4 U" has a throw back sound to what he was doing around this time in his career, I added it on to the tail end of Dirty Mind in my iPod. I changed the album cover, album title and year info. When I played the whole album for my friend I told her to check out the last song "...it shows Prince knew about the internet long before anyone else." She couldn't believe it. She was flippin out saying over and over "that is fuckin nuts...holy shit!" It wasn't until a couple weeks later that I let her off the hook...and then I played a joke involving a Wrecka Stow on her...

My fav'? When you were mine...(classic!!)
Over all a perfect album! Reminds me of my senior high school(rude boy).
The kid finding his own way.
