Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Umm... I liked the hockey puck case!

Not really, I hated it. Keeps rolling of my CD shelves.

Umm... I like the first CD the best, only coz of the first song ("Crystal Ball") and also "Hide The Bone" and "Ripopgodazippa".

I could do without the rest though. Especially "Cloreen Baconskin" and "Calhoun Square".

Three
Two

Mostly. But sometimes it's

Two
Three
One

I guess whichever one I'm listening to at the time.

And mostly that's THREE.

Yeah. I'm sticking to it.

THREE!!!

i like them all... my biggest beef with that whole set is that the songs feel like they were arranged by throwing all of the titles into a hat and drawing them out... it doesn't flow at all... it should have been arranged chronilogical order, like every good retrospective/anthology/compilation...


hmm... but i would have to say that i listen to number 2 the most... it's the only disc that doesn't have a pointless track...

honestly, i did not need "tell me how u wanna b done"... we got that song on the symbol album...

i didn't need "so dark" either... it's barely different from "dark" and yet somehow not as good... i don't like the fact that he takes michael bland's drum intro out... he takes out the little guitar solo part and adds these cheesy keyboards... the original sounded bad-ass and old school... the version on "crystal ball" sounds like he was trying to RAVE it... i do like the rhythm guitar that he adds to it, though...

"get loose" was a complete waste... no point to it... took out the lyrics... took out the solo... what did he add to it..? nothing... and what do you have left..? not much...


actually, i listen to number one a lot too... "crystal ball"... and number three has "goodbye"...


ok... this was pointless... i can't choose...

You know, I'm not even sure. I chopped it up into about 90 minutes of stuff the first week I got it and THAT's the version I listen to.

One of my favorites acutally.

Calhoun Square is one of his greatest songs EVER.
18 & Over
Acknowledge Me
Sexual Suicide
the Ride
Whats my Name
Ripoppgodazippa
Love Sign
Poom Poom (I know everyone hates that one)
Da Bang

Not to mention "The Truth"

He should do one every year.

This is very tough, but I'll have to go for Disc 1 for the title track alone. Disc 2 is fantastic as well. Hell, I love them all!

DISC ONE

By a considerable margin. Followed by Disc 2. Quality control appears to slacken as one goes through the compilation.
2morrow, Acknowledge Me, and Ripopgodazippa remain favourites of mine. music

Well, I do like disc 3 better than disc 1 confused smile 3 has some kickass songs on it but as a whole, it can't hold a candle to 2...
