When he does a falsetto.

A lot of people do it, but that doesn't mean Stevie is known for it like Philip Bailey or the Bee Gees or Al Green or Prince or Marvin Gaye

on the For You album !

I was listening to For You last night and i decided that i really hate prince's vocals on that album. At first i just thought it was the production but i came to the conclusion that he just doesn't sing well on that album. I do think Prince is a very good singer but on For You and on some of his 1990's stuff where he harmonizes 'weird',he doesn't sound good. What do you guys think about his vocals on that album and on prince's voice in general ?

[Edited 3/26/12 16:55pm]

Le tme get this straight. A kid in the late 70's plays all the instruments, writes alot of the songs and sings by HIMSELF and you find FAULT in it? How can you possibly hold his FIRST album against the later ones, when he was clearly more experienced? I'd like to see some examples of how YOU used to write your name in the first grade...I could then hold them against your current handwriting and tell you that you were SHIT.

Yes he can. Have U heard the intro to the "Controversy tour? His "The Second Coming" vocal layering song its a vocal masterpiece..That showcased his three octave range....

His voice was boss then, and it's boss now. From the time he was on the radio with Soft And Wet, the chatter was *who is that*? It was the voice.

Its ok for someone to have a different opinion, but if its baseless and has no merit, then people are going to disagree. You're just as bad as what you suggest by calling people "fucking assholes" for simply disagreeing!

All opinions are baseless and have no merit. hmph!

And I don't care that you disagree. But when you are rude as hell, I'm gonna call you a "fucking asshole".

Well Damn lol lol

Prince's singing on For You is fine.. but I'm not a fan of Prince's voice in general. He may have a great vocal range or whatever, but I'm not a fan of the sound of his voice. He has had good moments vocally, and I really enjoy his singing on "Baby" and "My Love Is Forever".

Prince has a three octave vocal range...He can do anything with his voice....

Yeah right, what's the point of this thread? Prince has the best voice that ever existed. Why are people even here if they are complaining?! U all need to clean your ears or go and listen to some crap! mad

Prince I will always miss and love U.

The acapella intro "For You" is fan-tastic.

You/ the original poster can't be serious.

Great album... heart

Reminds of Stevie Wonder, soul-pop.

"For You".... is much better than Prince's recent albums razz

worship

Prince 4Ever. heart

Co-mushy

And I will never get the attacks because someone doesn't agree. I personally am a fan of Prince's music, but his singing voice really does nothing for me. When I think amazing singers I think George Michael, Stevie Wonder, Luther Vandross.

I disagree with the OP but that doesn't make me right.

Some of y'all need to get over yourselves.

He was 18! Or 17! Depending on who you believe!

Or he was 20 if you believe the truth....although guess he was 20 when the album was released so 19 when most of the recording was done.

Sounds great to me. I've always wished he go back to singing everything in falsetto like he did for a few years when he first started.

First off i don't think what i posted was a troll post as some one mentioned. I have way better things to do with my time than to flame people or put up some bullshit on a prince site. I was mearly stating my opinion that prince's vocals on the For You album are not his best and i stand by that. I've been a prince fan from Soft n Wet to Extraloveable 2011 so i think i earned the right to critque his shit and if some of you don't like it, tough. We all have opinions and they really don't mean shit. The problem i have is instead of having a respectful dialogue some people decided to name call and talk shit which i won't tolerate. To those people, grow up, get a life, and get the **** on.

The fact that you're flattered that a user had a boner for you because you called a bunch of people fucking assholes out of random makes me happy that I wasn't mentioned.
