I'm gaining some appreciation for the track, certainly for the last two minutes of raging guitar work. But best of the 90's? It doesn't hold a candle to Eye Hate U. THAT song is an epic tour de force.

Hate U is good, but it is NOWHERE near the greatness of Joy In Repetition. You're talkin 80's greatness vs. 90's mediocre-ness.

I LOVE Hate U but sorry, it doesn't compete with Joy. Joy is one of his most perfect songs in his cannon imo. Like When Doves Cry, Little Red Corvette, 17 Days, She's Always in My Haid, and Erotic City (to name a few), it is flawless.

I saw this live on NSJ second night. One of the best performances I have ever seen live. Love this song even more now!

Underrated? It's a fan favorite.

Personally, I think it provides too much praise than it deserves, but I can rock with it.

All the poets and the part-time singers always hang inside...

Love it...every word of it.

Joy in Repetition is one of Prince's most underrated songs. Excellent guitar solo as well!

Not being rude, but people don't have to start these threads with "underrated songs"

This song has never been considered underrated.

I love the way the Ball segues into this song 1986 Ultra Platinum Year

one of his sexiest tunes, voyeurific! hypnotic!..

The pro shot version that pops up every now and then from the "21 Nights" stint always completely blows my mind and remains my favorite version of this song.

The guitar solo at the end ALONE is enough 2 raise the hairs on the back of ur neck.
