Man, and that's the worst Camille track, too. Honestly though IIWYGF is the only Camille track where that particular androgynous vocal effect actually enhances/complexes the delivery/point of the song itself... whereas in all the other songs it's just a cool effect. IIWYGF it adds another layer of complexity to the track, the song would be flaccid without it. [Edited 9/27/19 20:38pm] |

What's next, Purple Rain re-imagined as a single-disc EP? Hmmm yeah if you just cut "Let's Go Crazy", "Computer Blue", "The Beautiful Ones" and "When Doves Cry"--Stop it. Stop the madness. |

. It is in the same area as the Politically Correct crowd that wants us to rewrite history because it is not 'inclusive' enough. As if that changes hostory and if that changes the situation now with the inclusivity nonsense. Why do I have to endure burqa-types and asocials galore but vannot say that I do not like those people? (I cannot legally say that I want 'minder marokkanen' in the Netherlands, at least that case is pending and my name is not Geert) Same here for people that want to revise art. If you do not enjoy the art, then find other art. Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry. | |

Aren't you taking this just a tad too seriously? "Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system" - Bruce Lee | |

^ When I visited Paris last year, I didn't get too good a look to form an opinion. Unfortunately it was surrounded by people with their backs to the painting, attempting to get a selfie of themselves and the painting. ALT+PLS+RTN: Pure as a pane of ice. It's a gift. |

"Overrated" - so there's a rating system, that separates the good from the bad art by quantifiable points? How are these people qualified to make such assessments? If anything, it's art, that escapes quantification, unlike, let's say athletics or oven temperature. What troubles me is people, who clealry don't have a connection to art, making uneducated judgments about it and suggesting editing artworks themselves. |

What do you think of BAD by MJ from the same year? And I only want your input on this FunkJam [Edited 9/30/19 0:22am] | |

I don't think people generally use that word with objectivity in mind, no. "Man, the living creature, the creating individual, is always more important than any established style or system" - Bruce Lee | |

Pretty solid throughout. The only song I wouldn't really object to being cut is "I Just Can't Stop Loving You". Bad is the best, most consistent MJ album, IMO. Thriller has THE classic songs, but it suffers from some duff numbers and a weak closing track. Should have ended that album with the title track.

This was a trick question. If you think BAD is a consistent album and S☮️TT is cleaved in twain, well that's three strikes and you're outta here! BAD is horribly dated. | |

But, yes, I highly suspected it was a “trick” question. Bad sounds very much of the ‘80s, and some things are only good for their time, but “horribly dated”? I don’t see it, or rather, hear it!
So I prefer Bad as a whole, but artistically SOTT is above it, no doubt! Just like Purple Rain is far better as art than Thriller, but it’s a superior listen too!

SOTT is my favorite album, among any artist. I love the music, the imagery, the movie. |

Prince is up there shaking his head  * Wondering if the OP knows the history, and the fact that Prince had grandiose plans for a triple album which WB forced him to reduce to a double? He had to pick and choose what songs remained which I’m sure was extremely difficult. * That being said, SOTT was/is a fantastic album - each song a chapter in the “book” that he was writing about his life at that time. Prince always said he preferred albums over singles, because they “tell the story”. It was his personal story, so we may not understand why he chose certain songs over others, but we can just enjoy the music and try to understand his story or just apply some of it to our own lives. | |

He had to pick and choose what songs remained which I’m sure was extremely difficult. Yep, I’ve read the history, chiefly in the book Prince: The First Decade, I think, and I will say again that SOTT is indeed quite a work of art, greater than MJ’s Bad of the same year, despite the fact I prefer to listen to the latter as a whole. Given how highly regarded SOTT is, I was really quite interested to see how many others felt as I do about it, which is no-one, apparently. And some people see something the slightest bit controversial and shout “TROLL”. How unfortunate.

Oh, forgot to mention - it seems you are a younger fan since you mentioned you became familiar with the SOTT time period via the Biography. Some of the older fans here who were around during that time tend to get impatient with younger folks who are giving opinions or asking questions. I am an older fan, but not one to go on the “attack”. SOTT was pretty big back then and well received, although U2’s Joshua Tree beat out Prince for best album. | |

And, yeah, certainly a youngER fan, though longtime at this point: since October/November 2004! 1987 was quite a year in music: Prince, MJ, U2, and then there was Terence Trent D’Arby’s Introducing the Hardline!
