It is so overwrough with that screaming every two seconds and weird ass God talk near the end. Don't get me wrong, the scream can be a great artistic weapon, but only should be used when it makes artistic sense. He justs goes way too apeshit here. We all know he's lying anyway. The little dude is a poon hound.
Yay or nay on this one? I say slight nay. The guitar is neato, but the damned song never lets you rest one moment. Yikes. ... see your "taste" in some of P's music has changed and one would think that as we mature and grow that some of his music may give us that exact same feeling. Interesting enough, I find that I love some of the gems of the past more now then I did back then. My least favorite album was Chaos & Disorder and for a long time I wouldn't even buy it, let alone listen to tracks from it but I felt I needed to complete the album collection, I bought it and I "like" it now. Not love it. Me 2 I agree with Chaos and Disorder...there are some tracks I can dig now like "Chaos & Disorder" "I Like It There" "Dinner WIth Delores" "Had U" "I Rock.." they are not the best tracks or nothing but listening to foefers remasters with Red House on it....just makes me appreciate it alot more than I did. The subject: Never cared for it...too long and over done. Tried to liek it MANY TIMES just as much as that one song right after Paisley Park....cant hardly remember the name....Condition of the Heart...horrid track....

It's Prince's worst 80s album in my eyes... It is over the top, but I'd still rate it above Controversy,Lovesexy and Batman. | |

But i honestly believe it was a look into his inner struggle. Prince had always mixed Spirituality amd Sexuality. The end of the song kinda drove this point home. He knew right from wrong, but he just couldnt help himself. In his own weird twisted way, I think he was showing us his search for that missing piece to the puzzle. And that sex and lust wasnt what was missing in his life. almost 2 decades later, he seems to have finally listened to that voice at the end of Temptation. ----- Exactly it is unbelievable that so many people on this board don’t get dude’s struggle with sexuality and spiritually. He knows he is wrong and cannot figure out why he cannot get it together. That is what the whole song is about. | |
