A Million Days, wow, I love it, easily one of my favorites of the 00s. One of his best pop/rock tunes...

it has that spark of greatness that his work after TGE sorely lacked...

Cinnamon Girl is probably his most underrated song of the 00s, or even his entire career...

Agree, I also love Musicology, What do U want me 2 do and...in fact the first 2/3 from the album (including Life O'the party,Yes!!) is great, except Cinnamon Girl.

And I really don't like If eye was.../Marrying kind....Prince rock-light

Just my opinion and personal taste

I hated the production on Musicology, to be honest. Most of the songs come off like rough demos.

thankfully. compare it to Emancipation, Rave and 3121, and it's refreshing to hear something that isn't bogged down by its own slick over-production.

Sure, but the production on Lotus is infinitely better.

Hmmm.

Due to this thread I wanted to see the video on youtube again, but it seems to have gotten removed. I really don't see the point in this bullshit. It's a decent-looking video and people should be able to watch it, is he still planning to bank on it ten years later or something?

Loved it. One of the few songs on Musicology I really like along with Cinnamon Girl

Eh, maybe... but Lotus is clip-central.

They probably were rough demos.

So, I saw the Musicology video that's on the CD, is there a video to Cinnamon Girl?

One of my favs. I love the "rough" sound as it reminds me of the Purple Rain warehouse recordings.

Is it only on the Cinnamon Girl single?

Huh? There's a video to Cinnamon Girl? The most that song deserves is Prince shaking his head while holding a cardboard sign that reads "I'm really sorry."

The UK version of the Cinnamon Girl cd single has a live video of Dr Mr Man.

The NPGMC version of the CG cd single has the video for CG, and also a 5min "making of" video.

The NPGMC version can still be found on ebay from time to time.

Yep, the Musicology vid. Play your cd on your computer. I have the option of watching the Musicology video.

Nevermind..

YOu are talking about the musicology video with the little boy dancing?

'A Million Days' is my favorite Prince song since D&P era.

D&P = Diamonds and Pearls? IF so, wrong "era" in every way possible.

Yes, I remember seeing it.. I thought I saw it on Vh1 or something like that. There is a girl who looked either Arab or Indian. The scenario is she is recruited to be a suicide bomber because she is tired of being harrassed for being a Middle Eastern immigrant. She straps the bomb to her chest and look in the mirror. But she decides against going through the bombing. Her parents are immigrants and have no idea that their teen is comptemplating doing this. Nice Prince video. You can tell it had a storyline and real ACTORS to play the roles.

it's the Maori actress from "Whale Rider"....
