I Like It There

My Name is Prince

Not sure quite how many dislike these, but e.g. with I Like It There, Chaos and Disorder sure doesn't seem like a fan favorite.

Tambourine -- a nice funky tune, with tight drumming

Xpectation album, especially Xogenous -- his best jazz album imo and pretty innovative with the way the violin weaves in and out

C-NOTE, especially Copenhagen and Nagoya

Now -- one of his best 90s party songs, but unfortunately I have to just have a party in my ears & mind on this one instead with other people

Dance On -- see Tambourine

"Boy Trouble"
If you listen to the music, bass, hook, and song structure this is a gem just like a classic b-side.

"Had U"
This is such a beautiful gem and so short. Pure classic melody and great texture to the mix. And cold lyrics.

"X's Face"
This is so much of the Prince flavor that I loved. "chariots"



"Solo"

Just love it when he goes deep into non pop/rock/rap territory

"The Flow"

It was a muscular new version of the outtake we first might have heard. Tony M works in this case. It's also one of the most dramatic "only prince would do that" beginnings. That start is like a slap in the face coming off the calm ballad aftermath of dialog before.

"Days of Wild" Studio version

Such an interesting scifi calm cool rap mix. Not conventional funk.

I like most of the New Power Soul Album too. And Valentina is a particular favourite of mine. The other songs you mention are ones I don't like but then, that's the whole point of the thread, right? smile



A song I've always liked that I never see people give much love to is S&M Groove.

Another controversial opinion of mine is that I much prefer the Phase Two version of Extralovable to the original. That's not to say I don't like the original, I love it, but I prefer the version on Phase Two.

I have no idea what everybody hates but ...

I love nearly every song already mentioned and at least like the rest of them.

I love/like the entire chaos & disorder album as well as the truth, chocolate invasion, slaughterhouse, come and mpls sound ... all of them at least underrated and I think often disliked.
the only love there is is the love we make heart

I love Solo.
I could see how the popy, funk and r&b crowd here would go "wtf?"

Tamborine/Life can be so nice.
Love these two. They are one and the same in the head banging for me.
But again I can see how the poppy, funk, and r&b crowd here would go "wtf?"

I don't how widely hated these are except the 3rd one, but I have read more negative than positive about the others as well.
