It's brilliant.

Now where is Player???

It's a mood starter, no matter what has been playing before!

The vocals are perfect

The music is elegant, sexy and exquisite

The lyrics are pure

The tones and shades of different sounds are unpredictable

Only complaint: Too short. cool

I wish I could fall asleep listening to music. I can't. My ears won't stop listening.

yeahthat

When I first bought this album I didn't give it much of a chance. Extraordinary was always a standout song for me. I did re-visit this album though, and it is indeed "bloody excellent."

The ONLY song I like from "THE VAULT...OF4S". & I agree that it is too short =(

Love his vocal work on this track, & his lyrics are on point!

Same here. It's a great song and is the only song I like on that entire album.

the original old friends for sale is a classic ...he ruined it with the updated version...it was such a passionate song and then he had to go and dress it all up to the point it sounds like something on broadway - I prefer the original so much more... I guess it's just was well we never heard the remake of Wally... he stole the guts out of Old Friends, I imagine Wally would have turned out the same sad

back on topic - and yes Extraordinary is very nice...although I prefer Power Fantastic

jeez, i'd taken such a Prince hiatus from 99 to 04 that i forgot this was even on there, even after hearing it on ONA (which is indeed the way gooder version). and here comes Potify...
