Hallucination Rain ♥

How could i have forgotten about this one? Was my favorite when the Exodus album was released.

This track is brilliant to me!

Feels like listening to the Doors...And I love Prince's voice making the echo to Sonny T's in the album version. I love the long version too.

Sometimes the Org needs a 'Like' button... Totally agree, one I'd forgotten about too, need to dig out Exodus again methinks! smile

One of the better tracks on the album, the long version is sublime.

Yum, yum, yum and I concur the longer version is even yummier, with extras yummies sprinkled on top.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

An amazing song from his most underrated album.

Completely fantastic! Amazing recording, deep, deep bass, electric violin solo is sublime and Mike B beats the hell out of those skins towards the climactic scream, which is also brilliantly executed. A fave of mine - I wish there were more in this vein (pun intended) wink

I love the music, but a little confused by the lyrics, it seems that someone slipped something in the soup then it's about finding another vein. What is this song about?

This is a really excellent song. The electric violin solo is fantastic.

Speaking of which, this is the only Prince song with electric violin, right? IIRC, Vanessa Mae only plays acoustic violin on "Xpectation".

Drug use I think.

What about the intro? was it a wife giving drugs to her husband or something?

I think the soup was drugged by Mayte.

Exodus is fantastic.

The only 2 songs I don't like is this Hallucination Rain and also Cherry Cherry.

That voice on H R is soo bad, and Cherry Cherry is just too sugary sweet.

Get Wild,

Return Of The Bumpsquad,

Count The Days,

The Good Life,

The Exodus Has Begun,

Big Fun

those are great. music

Prince 4Ever. heart
