How do you dare, for me is "17 Days" is jusat meh to me.

No way! What don't you like about 17 Days? It's one of my favorite songs by anyone, ever! I don't like the song D.M.S.R. for some reason. I don't hate it, it's a song I don't get, yet.

The melody, i do not find anything great, it just doesn't grab me.

Many songs on SOTT, too many infact to be considered a Prince fan really. You wan't too start a lynch mob? Let's just say that The Ballad Of Dorothy Parker isn't my cup of tea. On the other hand. SOTT is his best album. Why? Try doing that Janet, MJ, Madonna, Bruce, George Michael in your artistic peak. Oh, it's so wierdly timeless that no other album has even come close before or since.

The Ballad of Dorothy what....

The following I can enjoy but don't really find worthy of the high praise they usually get:

Adore

Vicki Waiting

When You Were Mine

Controversy

I Wish U Heaven

Papa

In This Bed I Scream

Love Thy Will Be Done

Way Back Home

Same December

Then there's Little Red Corvette... This one I just can't enjoy, sorry. Same for Right Back Here in my Arms.

The there's Pussy Control... Unbearable.

Life Can Be So Nice. Jus clatter, not much song to grab at.

Sometimes It Snows In April. I have to be in a certain mood, but it's not great.

Shame on the folks who dissed Moonbeam, Adore and Scandalous. Masterpieces in space and time.

MOUNTAINS -musically and lyrically not appealing play in the sunshine -its lika a mountains part2

I don't like Mountains either... I could never figure out what the appeal was

(puts on boot-proof pants)

Erotic City.

Lemme 'splain!

I don't dislike it - I just think it's... 'fine'. I hear people calling this one the ultimate dancefloor workout of all time and, I'm just not there. It's a good song, but I just find it a bit monotonous for eight whole minutes. Put it next to DMSR and there's no contest, in my opinion.

Kick away, folks!

Erotic City is much, much more wellknown and more popular than DMSR. I mean, I love DMSR but come on, Erotic City was THE jam in the clubs back then, more so than DMSR. And in my opinion it sounds much more unique, much weirder and more interesting than DMSR, which is funky but in a much more familiar way.

Sure, Erotic City does sound a bit like Prince was inspired by Laid Back´s White Horse, and it has traces of George Clinton here and there but ....hey....Erotic City!

-

That rhythm guitar at the very beginning.....that bassline........just the right amount of singing by Sheila E.....Prince´s deep voice during those first seconds. The nursery rhyme-like cadence, those wonderful keyboard melodies.

DMSR is a great and slamming song but Erotic City has so much going on.

And it had that wonderfully long title and that weird picture with Prince on that metal bed with that pink background.

Great cover, great song, great lyrics and music.

Scandalous, I find it really boring and kinda sickly if I can describe it in that way? I prefer insatiable.

I have had many an amorous encounter to the 12"

I NEVER liked Adore. even to this day. Brilliant album but I consider this the worst song. probably why it was never released as a single. too sappy and overbearing. I think he recorded it and mixed it in one day and didn't put enough time into it. If he would have slept on it a few nights maybe he would've arranged it better. songs he spent more time on like Housequake usually end up being masterpieces

I'm just responding to the question. If everybody were the same we would only need one person on earth, not billions.

No disrespect to anyone...but what type of chemical imbalance do you have to have, to not like "Housequake"?...it would seem that you would have to be totally devoid of funk, to not like it...ive heard it hundreds of times over the years and i still cant be still

What kind of immaturity does one have to have not to realize that tastes differ? Adults don't say "no disrespect" and then proceed to say something disrespectful and childish.

Housequake is just not it imo. Don't understand why people like it.
