It was always going to win. It's the much 'safer' album.

Phase 2 over here!

Well, I only liked one song from each album. I liked June from HNR Phase 1 and I liked Revelation from HNR Phase 2. So I guess it's a tie.

One song each? Sheesh. What albums DO you like?

If anything I'm amazed that Phase I has as many votes as it does. If you'd ask me before this thread I'd have though it would be more like 10:1 in favour of Phase 2. I thought I was in a small minority preferring Phase I and seeing it with more than 30% of the votes so far is very surprising.

Definitely Phase 2!

Phase 1 - by far.

“Phase One” is ahead by light years. It’s very much a sister album to AOA: exciting, futuristic and brilliant.

Even though I’ve warmed up to “Phase Two,” it’s still a rather disappointing swan song album. I always thought Prince’s last album would have been a grand magnum opus on a scale hitherto unimaginable to all of us mere mortals.

I have voted already, I just wanna say this reply gets the prize for best post so far.

And I agree (about Phase 1) - with u, Boneranger.

Thanks, dance! I was listening to AOA and Phase One again last night and it really hit me hard that Prince was giving us a taste of an amazing new musical chapter that we'll never get to hear. The sense of loss at this unfortunate prospect is truly crushing.

Phase 2 by far. I remember geting Tidal to hear Phase 1 and while listening, I looked at my wife and said "what is this crap?" It has grown a tad on me from that first listen but Phase 2 still gets my vote.

Phase One is my fav at the moment. Lovin the chilled flow and the version of '1000 X's & O's' is a favorite 4 me.

Also liking the flow from AOA to Phase One.

God Bless Prince

It's almost 'June' (phase one) and I love phase two.

As already mentioned...
I see AOA, Phase 1 and Phase 2 as a triumvirate. Phase 1 grows out of AOA and Phase 2 is Prince just saying 'Look I can do this as well chill all you haters'

Personally to answer the op Phase 1 for me.

But of the 3 AOA

Semi douche answer

One is more interesting, Two has a higher number of better songs, so... neither!

Phase 1 has more of my favorites, but the first 4 songs I really don't like. Phase 2 is more consistent. I think I'll go with Phase 2.
