"Tick Tick Bang", "Tambourine", "Elephants and Flowers" were early contenders.

The whole The Rainbow Children album, "Life Can Be So Nice", "Shy", Musicology, half of LotusFlow3r and MPLsound has yet to grow on me.

Thank God someone else said this. People are all abuzz over that, and AOA, but they're way below his usual standards of good music. Between those two, and HnR2, I can maybe put together one really good album.

What prince song have to grow on u? Maybe its a song u didn't like or understand when it was 1st released. 4 me it was the ladder. Just didn't understand it but love it now.

When Doves Cry. (Hear me out people, don't kill me!)

In high school, I probably only heard the radio edit. (I grew up in Seattle). The song was always so-so to me. I never hated it, but never loved it. I also think part of it was that I didn't really understand the song.

The past year 4 sure, and maybe even a little before that (past 2-6 years, since I've lived in Philly), the song has really grown on me. It could be that I listen to the album version now, with the long guitar solo...and I the guitar solo. I think the radio stations here in Philly play the album version sometimes/all the time (not sure, but I've heard the album form on the radio). Anyway, WDC has grown on me big time in the past year 4 sure and probably before that...I the song!

AOA album.

When I first heard it the only song I reeeeally liked was U Know. Now other songs have grown on me, not to mention some meaningful lyrics.

Most of the Emancipation album.

Not most, but lots of songs i did not like at all.
