Still Would Stand All Time adoration thread. This is a song I have slept on for quite some time and decided to re-listen and re-evaluate after listening to the Peach & Black podcast Graffiti Bridge album review.
And for some reason, it has really resonated with me ever since. This is surely one of Prince's finest vocal deliveries on record.
What a magnificent song. | |

Indeed magnificent. Its release coincided with MAJOR changes and challenges in my life: I remember listening to it as an injection of HOPE. | |

I think it's the Purple Rain of the 90s. Truly an amazing song. | |

Weak. Never liked the album version (1990), it sounds so dull, so stiff.... following the excellent Small Club live version (1988). Prince 4Ever.  | |

Great song, shame it, along with a few other Jems got stuck on the stinker of an album that is Graffiti Bridge She Believed in Fairytales and Princes, He Believed the voices coming from his stereo

Same as with hearing The Question of U on record after hearing it live on the Nude Tour. Still, both of those are among the best on this particular album. | |

Love love love this song! It is my favorite on the Graffiti Bridge soundtrack, and one of my favorite Prince songs. I don't know, it's just something about that song that touches my heart, especially towards the end when Prince sings so passionately. | |

A great singer oozes emotion and Prince does just that on this incredible song
The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.
Remember there is only one destination and that place is U All of it. Everything. Is U. | |

I've never cared for it. It's boring and generic, two words that are hard to apply to the Prince before GB but very easy to apply to too much Prince after GB. "Drop that stereo before I blow your Goddamn nuts off, asshole!"

This was always my favorite song on GB, and for a long time my favorite Prince song period. I love the tension from the strings throughout most of the song, and then when the whole thing resolves after, "Love can save us all," climaxing with the excellent gospel rave-up, containing Prince's most impassioned vocals ever. Incredible. "That's when stars collide. When there's space for what u want, and ur heart is open wide." | |
