Printable Wow some of the responses on here are really shocking me.
If you don't like it, maybe you don't like Prince as it sounds pretty authentic to me!? To me he sounds like Prince and I am happy with that. If you want him to sound like the firiggin Kings of Leon then go and listen to the Kings of Leon.. Shut up already, damn. | |

If folks are trying to juxtapose Prince and KOL then they really do not understand Prince music imo  | |

lol, who ever said "9 to 5" is spot on. Guitar work of course is awesome but the song just doesn't do anything for me...which sucks, now I have to hear from everyone that I know, how bad the song is, got enough shit from the Vikings fight song...but I will keep supporting and listening...Guess we always have that live version of empty room lol | |

I thik people need to face some pretty obvious facts. For a time Prince wrote electic, catchy and to a certain extent original music. He was bold and challenging for his time. But then during the late 80s the fire dimmed and Prince morphed into a conventional pop artist. Yeah he is talented in a host of instruments, but so are many other musicians.
He is a conventional artist aged 50+ and this is what he is capable of nowadays. So although I don't rate the record, I don't blame Prince. He is just doing the best that he can. |

 My favorite verse:
if had the chance to do it all again i wouldn't change a thing, except my next of kin there's something on the tip of my tongue -got a taste for sinleave no enemies, leave no dead Thank you P. Such a lovely way to wake up my Morning! 
 if you stamp your passport full of regret you have nothing to remember but a lot to forget I like that line. Sounds like he's saying if you don't embrace your life for what it is, whether that included making mistakes that helped you learn and grow along the way through your path of life, then you erase a part of yourself that played a major role in helping you to grow or become a better you (i.e,, (mature/wiser).

I've listened to it more than once. I think it's already taken the shape of something.  "If you wanted to buy a Sam Cooke album, where would you go?" | |

mayrain said: I like it. Sounds like Prince is moving in a new direction. I also think the lyrics are God and Elect not cause and effect when he says he is made in the image of. This song sounds like advice and I use to say I would live my life without regret but u can't run from the truth which is u and sometimes in life u will have regret about the choices u made. I find it odd that most of the people that claim to hate it were first in line to hear it. Is Prince music like drugs u need your hit but complain about it not getting u high enough? I like the song for what it is and u can't compare this Prince to the old Prince.....the old Prince is dead and this Prince is the rebirth. I know some of ya'll have no idea what I mean but I pray one day u will and than u will see the light.
I really am liking what you had to say here. I like the God and Elect.....so much more to that ehh? I also think when the song talks about a taste for sin - of course who doesn't right? I mean we are all made of "flesh". I can look back on my own life and see a whole lot of "sin and consequence"(Cause and Effect). But i have learned that that's what has made me the Woman i am today - my life has and will continue to be sifted my the grace of God's hand. Such a Beautiful;painful;heartbreaking;Wonderful process of Sanctification! | |

From 1:56 to 4:56 is P on his "A" game. Liked the flow. Impressive!
The beginning is forced a little... sounds like style was taking a step back for the sake of an agenda. Also, to me I get an "Endorphin Machine" vibe. Overall, I'll take it.  Soaked in Banana Cologne, No Wonder U're All Alone | |
