WOW....all of your skippers are my favorites...... Go figure.

And right there, that's the beauty of Prince.

Something for everyone and people with wildly different tastes can still love him. It's why Emancipation should most definitely have been 3 discs, it's why the Lotusflow3r set was fine, it's why we don't actually need quality control on his albums. Just let him put it all out there and some will love it, some will loathe it, but who really cares? A single disc of Emancipation could have been a single disc of shit for me but you could have loved it and vice versa.

Right, I'm going to stick 2010 on.

Perfect post!!! I find it so interesting when I ask people what their fave songs are of his. Or how they feel about certain songs. It can be very different. But its cool, we all love Prince, so its all good! *Going to go enjoy the 3 awesome Emacipation cds!*

HELL TO THE NAW!

1999 is almost perfect. The other albums...

Yeah, that's what I thought.

Right?

I don't understand what Twilight Zone this thread is a gateway to, but I want to go home.

Just the songs 1999 and Littel Red Corvette alone put the 1999 album over 3121 and 20Ten - and 3121 is a great album that didnt get heard enough.

I know. And unless I'm confusing Marrrks, he usually doesn't do threads this zany. Maybe it's too late and we're already in the Twilight Zone....

Beginning Endlessly is sorta good. Not a big fan of Love. Fury is a great song. The live version is even better!

Love 3121 and 20Ten (now that i've heard it finally) but no I prefer 1999.... its a classic...

Had a song like "Beginning Endlessly" been on 1999 it would be deemed a classic. It's a victim of its release time, rather than the quality. I would certainly rate it more than the likes of "All the Critics" and "Automatic".

Songs like "Love" and "Fury" are as well written as anything he has done, its just the way he crafted them sounds dated in the era he has released them.

I strongly disagree.

I violently disagree on point one.

Kind of agree on point two. 3121 was great imo.

I've probably listened to 3121 more than 1999, but 1999 is an absolute classic, whereas 3121 is simply a great album.
