Do you think there is significance in the one-word titles of the 1993/4 tracks? I remember from around that time that the reviews/interviews pertaining to Come/post-Hits era, mentioned specifically that the songs from this period were one word titled - i.e. it was intentionally this way.
Do you think the number of one word title songs from this period have significance as a whole? | |

LetItGo is what ruined this for the Come album
No I think Prince just had a bunch of songs that by accident only had one word titles so he bunched them together. | |

At it's original inception, there WERE only one word titles in the tracks that were SUPPOSEDLY going to add up to one long coherent sentence. | |

Yeah, that's what I read too. | |

Referring to Boris Fishpaw's list, I think that sentence might sound more coherent if formed by POOK. | |

That's interesting - I hadn't seent that before. This period interests me, it was just after I'd got into Prince, and bootlegs (I got into bootlegs before I had all the albums) - and hearing all those Come/GE tracks was fantastic. It seemed like the batch of songs from around the time of the name change really had some magic about - it seemed like the name change was gonna inspire some great music - that didn't long I guess, but what the hey! | |

Totally agree. If ever there was a period with enough top class material to fill a triple album, this was it. | |

In the end, the 'Come' album turned out to be a great deal less than the sum of its (originally intended) parts.
In other words, 'Come' would have been a killer album had it included a small number of the tracks that were issued in 'Crystal Ball'. You know which ones they are. . "You don't frighten us, English pig dogs. Go and boil your bottoms, sons of a silly person." | |
