Tangerine Y'all can make fun of me, but I love this song. It's really a lovely little ditty. The short version on Rave un2 is nice, but the longer cut on Rave in2 is my preference. I dig it. | |

It's a spunky wee trinket.

It's actually MY favorite track from 'Rave IN2 The Joy Fantastic'!
It took me a while to realize, but as much as I listen to it, I realize it's MY favorite from the WHOLE project! I don't know? IT JUST IS!!! The guitar is SO emotional and beautiful! It's just totally inspiring! It's Button Therapy, Baby! | |

I liked it first time I heard it. I like the slightly longer version on In2 even more. RIP | |

Loved it instantly. What are you outraged about today? CNN has not told you yet? | |

Why would we make fun of you? Tangerine is friggin fantastic. The lyrics are what stand out to me the most. | |

Love it. "We just let people talk & say whatever they want 2 say. 9 times out of 10, trust me, what's out there now, I wouldn't give nary one of these folks the time of day. That's why I don't say anything back, because there's so much that's wrong" - P, Dec '15 | |

I like it, but the longer version really makes it. | |

See, I think I might like the edit just a little bit more. Dig both of 'em.
I often find myself singing "What's it like inside your tangerine?" when I first think of this song. Then I'm like, "Oh wait.. that's wrong." | |

It's a lovely tune and has a chunk of Clannad in the guitar/keyboard/drum refrain that makes me smile and think of Sherwood Forest. | |

One of my favorite lines! The way he sings it, has so much emotion! It's Button Therapy, Baby! | |

i completely love it when prince releases these off center short little songs. stuff like this and "all the midnights", "papa", "the rest of my life" etc.
there's hardly a song of his that clocks in under 3 minutes which i do not like. they're always fun and quirky and lend themselves extremely well to repeated listening.
i've often made playlists with all his -3 minutes songs on them and there is not a bad one in the bunch. except fcuz "my little pill" which is just a bit too weird for it's own good.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

nice, short, sweet, heartfelt
proof that Rave is a fine mainstream album which gets a bad rep due to some awful fillers...

one song that clocks in at a minute and a half does not make for a fine album. | |

I never thought that much about it before now, but I think I agree with you. I think I love all of his under-three-minute songs. | |
