Note: It is far too premature for me to be certain about exactly where I would place AOA or PlecElec, since I've only been listening to them for a few days, and I've been really busy so I haven't had a lot of time to listen; therefore, this is very much a preliminary ranking for me. Also, my like/dislike of albums in general (and certainly Prince albums) changes over the years. For example, 20TEN has grown on me quite a bit...and although Planet Earth was a real low point for me when it was released, up until a few months ago it was one of my favorite post-Rainbow Children releases (even though it's extremely uneven), but I think I overplayed it and it's just not something I'd want to hear anytime soon. Additionally, on release I *much* preferred MPLSOUND to Lotus Flower, but over the years I've come to prefer the latter.

Hmm....

You americans are all crazy with AOA...How could you seriously rate it over musicology or 3121 ?

AOA is almost unlistenable. in the same style, ELIXIR is more relevant. AOA is bad rnb combined with bad eurodance (pleonasm), autotune.

No melodies to be found, except for WAY BACK HOME, which is an ersatz of Forbidden colors' Sakamoto, released in 1983.
