Not everything he did in the 1980s was perfect. I never cared much for Tamborine either. It, Hot Thing...just doesn't move me. | |

*Tamborine---This is just a throwaway song that's a waste of space.He should have added the superior "She's Always In My Hair" to the album,instead of this mediocre song.
*"Temptation"---starts off with some amazing,Hendrix-inspired guitar,but nothing substantial follows.The spoken "conversation" with God is creepy and ridiculous.
*"Hot Thing"---I like the groove,but the lyrics are surprisingly pedestrian...."hot thing....baby you dance so good....hot thing....baby I knew you would"??? We all know that Prince can write better lyrics than that!
*"Dance On"---the only song on Lovesexy that I often skip.It sounds unfinished to me.

Parade * "I Wonder U": The studio version is just unmemorable, but the live version is gawd awful. |

A lot of the songs I'll be listing are good, just not the ones I really care for... So no one assume I'm being blasphemous and saying the songs suck
Dirty Mind: Uptown (album version drags, but I dig the single edit) Partyup (never liked this...horrid vocals) . Controversy: Let's Work (sorry) . 1999: DMSR (can't stand this sometimes... ) All the Critics Love You in New York (it's okay. it's good in the context of the album) . Purple Rain: [not possible] . Around the World in a Day: Tambourine (first time bonafide crappy filler entered a Prince album; usually switch it out for Hello) Pop Life (usually switch this out for Girl) America (usually switch this out for She's Always in My Hair) . Parade: Christopher Tracy's Parade (good only in the context of the album) Girls and Boys (I like this one but a tad overrated) . Sign 'O' the Times: It (noooo) Housequake (lacks the energy of the live version) The first 3 tracks (usually switch them out for live versions) Adore (overrated... I can dig it, but still....) IMO, most of SOTT's live versions beat the album versions' asses . Lovesexy: Dance On (simply 'OK' song.. disappointing filler-sounding) Lovesexy (it's good but way too busy and over-produced... began an era of overproduced music) IMO, Lovesexy is closer to Batman/D&P/Symbol sound than it is to the 81-87 era work.. . Batman: Vicki Waiting (cool and mellow, but never dug it too much)
Maybe  do, just not like did before  | |

Ronnie Talk To Russia, the ending of Temptation and it's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night are the only 80's songs I don't care for She Believed in Fairytales and Princes, He Believed the voices coming from his stereo

CALM YOUR TITS Einstein, I meant the fact that it's ALSO included in Lovesexy; since I'm not mad about this song to begin with, having it in two consecutive albums is tiresomne | |
