Princes second album a concept album ? This might be very far fetched, but hear me out.
I was listening to Princes second album and it occurred to me that this album kinda has a very loose concept to it.
1 - I wanna be your lover - Prince confessing his love 2 the person of the song
2 - Why you wanna treat me so bad - Prince still trying 2 win over the person from the first song.
3 - Sexy Dancer - I honestly couldn't think of anything with this song... over than the person being a sexual dancer? and that it connects the next song together?
4 - When we're dancing close and slow - Prince finally getting with the person. and expressing how he feels about them
5 - With you - Expressing how he feels about the person and what he feels.
6 - Bambi - Princes lover is now a lesbian? and Prince is trying to win her back
7 - Still waiting - Prince still waiting for his love 2 finally come back around.
8 - I feel for you - Prince still trying to win his love back and I guess he does.
9 - Its gonna be lonely - Prince now back with his lover but is expressing how he would feel if she left.
Again this is me just connecting the dots and this is again very very far fetched... [Edited 6/6/18 16:05pm] | |

As a concept album, it ain't exactly Sgt Pepper | |

Sgt Pepper was a concept that was the focus of the album but got lost by the second track... and didn't come back untill the last 2 tracks of the album. Sgt Pepper was more about freedom,expression and experimenting with new sounds that the Beatles couldn't do live.

The songs do have a theme of trying to find a love you can't have. The reason for that, I don't know. Maybe he was rejected bh a lover, maybe be was upset that the first album wasn't the big hit he was hoping it would be, maybe be just thought it was a good subject to write about. | |

The only concept to most artists for years is fucking. That's what they're all singing about - fucking. Every "love song" is straight up about fucking. That's the concept. Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking. | |
