Well?

For me, I LOVE listening to LoveSexy, but I am dumbfounded by CAT's rap on alphabet street.

It just doesn't fit the song, and the entire last half othe album version gets on my last nerve.

I also think "LOVE" from 3121 is an awful tune. I was stunned so many people considered

the 'obvious single' for the album, because I love the album, minus that one song.

I'm not crazy about "Get on the Boat", but it fit the album. "Love" simply feels out of place

to me.

Oh damn, the Cat rap is the best part of the song to me. It sounded wild and crazy at the time. And I couldn't believe he faded the song before that part on the single. It would have risen higher if he had left it in back in '88.

Love just has a bit of a generic Madonna feel to it, like he was trying to get into Madonna territory. I think its a good song that could have used more work on the production to make it unique.

My vote would be... hmmm.... can't think

I'm not proud of my opinion.

Actually, I'm deeply ashamed of it.

But, I just can't stand that part of the song.

<<The Ladder (ATWIAD)

Anotherloverholeinyohead (Parade)

Forever In My Life (SOTT)>>

Really?!?!? I think these are pretty great.

<<4. Dance on off Lovesexy, serves no purpose, its just a filler track>>

The lyrics are filler, but the drumming on that song is amazing.

<<Prince: Still Waiting

3121: Satisfied>>

I can see Stil lWaiting, however, the live version from ATlanta and Paris shows are really great. Satisfied is a great panty dropper!

My picks:

I Would Die 4 U - Purple Rain (Skip this everytime.)

Under the Cherry Moon - Parade

It - SOTT (Find the music very pedestrian.)

Okay, what's wrong with Mad Sex?

dont u mean what isnt wrong with Mad Sex?...seriously confused bad song from a bad album

Mad Sex has a great sound, with cool in-your-face old school piano over that snaking electronic rhythm. And it's just a wicked sex song with lyrics like "Till the animal prints to flaunt so lovelyIs full of little bloody holes. Bushy head mulatto breakdown. And your lips got wet today ".

I think it's a Prince gem. It's also pop catchy.

Mad Sex, The One, Come On, Wasted Kisses are great. The One and Come On are among the best he's EVER DONE.

I love Newpower Soul, and I always considered "Mad Sex" a highlight. It'd probably be Top 40 all time favorites for me.

I also really like Mad Sex! Come On and Wasted Kisses are great too. Rest of the NPS album is quite poor IMO.

RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time...

Back on topic:

Ronnie Talks To Russia (Controversy)

Free (1999)

The Ladder (ATWIAD)

Venus De Milo (Parade)

Slow Love (SOTT)

After that Prince's albums became too spotty for me to be "otherwise GREAT albums" unfortunately. Still a lot of good individual tracks on almost each release though, I am not hating.

RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time...

I'll just say Chelsea Rodgers sounds like a knock off disco tune. Although, I will say that it suffers from his production choice, the song isn't a bad one (see Jughead for that.) Although PE is a good album, I wouldn't call it a great album.

I honestly think the songs that people think are bad suffer from production choices, 'cuz most Prince songs are good. For instance When eye lay my hands on you NPGMC vs live version, live version is clearly better. Then there are some of you calling out classics songs (TMWU,ALHIYH etc.) and all I can say to you is bad Prince fan. Bad Prince fan! Now, go to your room and think about what you've done.

Naw, Graffiti Bridge (the song) on Graffiti Bridge (the lp) is an awful song no matter how it's produced.

I'm firmly planted in denial

Although that is a song I tend to skip. Just imagine a sped up rock n roll version-could be good.
