I like it. It's kind of different for Prince, maybe a bit commercial, but also speaks honestly from where he's at, not pretending to be a gangsta or teenager.

Because it's shit hop which is a disgrace for any artist with his talent to sellout to. As for the Isley Brothers, Ronald Isley has been a complete sellout and disgrace since the 1990s so there's no double standard here. Shit hop is the enemy. It's the reason why there's been no good R&B mainstream music in the last 20 years so of course I can't stand when I see good artists bow down, kiss it's ass, and sell out to it.

Because it makes me feel poor, and I get depressed.

All over the world we call him Prince but I can call him Mr. Goodnight :3

I love this song.

Its like silky soul/R&B/Hip-Hop

<3

I may be in the minority but I love that song. I love the bass line and his sexy voice and Bria does good with the speaking/singing too.

i don't hate it. a little corny, but not as bad as incense and candles

I... I really liked that song... That and Future Baby Momma are awesome songs...

I lurrrve this jam I made sure it was one of the songs in rotation for my 40th bday bash..."tell me which dress you chose so I can put on (put on) my matchin' suit" --- That's big pimpin' right there (thinkin it ain't but it is...lol)

I really like like that song

It's not one of Prince's best and not one of his worst. But I prefer songs like The One U Wanna C and Guitar.

I really liked the song..... the hate for me comes from it being so dated. It's hard for me to listen to anew at this point -- but I'm willing to revisit - maybe I played it too often since it was one of the only trax on that album that made me not embarrased.

the rap is terrible......im sorry it is........

Like someone said here; "I Lurrrrrrrrrrrrrveeeeeeeeeeee This Song" Hahahahahaha

What I love about this song is how 'Future Goodnight' falls into 'Mr.Goodnight' it sounds so crisp!

His rap is very good; it does not sound forced at all; he has control over his voice and you can hear the flow perfectly!

SO regardless of what anyone else Says...I LOVE IT! lol

all i know is my mom listened to this song because it was free in the Daily Mail. So now my mother can understand what all the fuss was about.

I think he should make a video of this with Ronnie the Limo driver from the Howard Stern show as Mr.Goodnight..like courting all these strippers to all these high class restaurants.

The song is fun.

While the majority may rule, I'm going with the minority on this one.

I loved me some Mr. Goodnight!!!!

I've always liked it. One of the bright spots on the Planet Earth album.

Because its dumb, its seductive yes, but in a silly rappy/bad r and b type way. At least if its Prince, sing some falsetto, add a few horns and some piano tinkling. This track sounds like filler from an Usher or Chris Brown album rather than Prince.

Its also trend chasing which is sad, totally unconvincing, sounds cheep ass as well. Plus hes using ghetto slang words like Holla and throw yo head back, he sounds so much better when he speaks proper English. Here he sounds like Lil Wayne with this language. This song has an IQ of about 70, most of his music is 100 +.

People who hate it probably hate hiphop/rnb as a genre anyway.

I've listened to hip hop for years and I love this tune, I dont think its shit in any way. The whole album is fukin excellent and I cant understand when he knocks out stuff like Planet Earth (especially with its old skool Prince flavor) that bellends come on here and still insist he aint done fuck all since the Gold Experience.

It's no Beautiful Ones, but it was never meant to be.

I like it!

I die everytime I hear the 'Mind full of good intentions and a mouth full of raisonettes." line

It's a fun, light, little tune.

me too

No way, who does 8 that song?

I LUUUUUUUUUUUUUUV it, beautiful melody as a lullaby

It gets so much hate because it's a piece of shit! Plain and simple.

And no, if the Isleys did this shit, it'd be just as shitty, like Andy said.
