I do. I put on the video of While My Guitar Gently Weeps because I think it is a classic moment where Prince proves why he is the baddest mf on the planet among the greatest artists of all time in the Hall of Fame. When he reduces himself to pandering to kids and enlisting them in his albums, I need a spoonful of sugar to make that medicine go down.

Thats too bad. Your missing out on a GREAT album!! I will enjoy it for you though!!

Indeed the new album is great. Maybe you should take another listen (the OP).



HITnRUN, makes me feel just great.

During times like this I put on the new album and play it loud. I love the times when he releases something I really enjoy.

I went back yeah, I went back and listened to AOA and the recent-ish download-only tracks and made a nice little playlist of everything I liked from these and HNR and I'm diggin' it for a bit. There's been worse albums than HNR, it's not the end of the world.

What makes you think I haven't heard the album? I didnt say that I ignored his recent material. In fact, the point is that I have indeed heard it and it inspires me to go back to better days. Apparently, like Prince albums, Comment snipped - langebleu moderator

What's worse? Maybe a reminder will somehow make me feel better HNR.

Well it's all subjective isn't it - I would take HNR over 20Ten, MPLSound, Musicology, 3121, Rave. YMMV.

Yes. This SOOOO reminds me of when he released 'Around The World In A Day' and it was so different from 'Purple Rain' that I had to get a new hairstyle.
LOOKING BACK IS THE ONLY WAY FORWARD

Some of us don't have much to do today.

Comment snipped - langebleu - moderator To answer your question: actually no, maybe if you can justify why we need another "I don't like HNR" thread then your question will deserve an answer.

I insulted no one as I stopped resorting to name calling when I became a man several decades ago. I appreciate the removal of such names used in reference to me for having an opinion and asking a question that doesn't necessarily make everyone happy. I still invite intelligent and mature responses that speak to the original post. I believe that we can all express ourselves about Prince and enjoy the forum here without attacking or devaluing ideas that are different or even unpopular.

I do not need to go back to feel better, I feel fine enjoying what I enjoy on HitnRun.

After listening to as much of HitnRun as I could bear, absolutely yes. HitnRun actually depressed me. I had to listen to an hour or so of other stuff just to be able to function properly again.

You can make a nice little playlist with the download-only tracks...

Or burn a solid disc...this TIDAL bullshit is one reason I will always hold onto physcial media
