Thought I'd get this thread started nice and early.

I like it but I've read some comments that are disparaging about it.

It's nice.

I've never heard it. Where is it from?

I just listened to it.

I like it!

It gave me gingivitis.

Because more than half the songs at MP3.com sound better, and what does that say: "Ouch!"

Hello stymie. Did I promise you something a few days ago? Because I haven't got around to it yet...

Actually, I think the music is merely a vehicle for the lyrics. He's definitely wanting to say something to a certain type of someone... I daresay most of his female fans.

Well, like you say, you've read some disparaging comments, but no doubt you've read some supportive comments too - so not everyone dislikes it.

As far as I can tell, there's also a third category that don't dislike the song - but they hear a relatively ordinary composition.

Not complaining, just observing.

I know langebleu, I was just joking around as I find these type of threads a bit silly. Every song that has been mentioned as a "why do people hate..." I have liked.

Yeah, I visited our summerhome but I am a patient woman.

I've listened to its a few times and would like to move the file to my music library. I searched for all files created today and did not find it. Can anyone help me out?

OMJ

I like this song alot but wish for a higher quality stereo copy.

Thanks, that worked fine!

OMJ

I love it.

A real funky gem.

Well, where is this song from??!!!

'Why does everyone dislike What Do U Want Me 2 Do?'

probably because it is a turd.

KeithyT said:

Fair enough

I don't like it because it sounds like NOTHING on my computer. Doesn't work goddamn it.

For the last time:

WHERE IS THIS GODDAMN SONG FROM???!!!

NWF said:

It's from the GlamSlam room at the NPGMC.

I really like the song i think it sounds pretty good.

KeithyT said:

You did well, because I could foresee similarly whiney thread titles being posted.

I mean, everyone has their own taste, that is a given, BUT:

My opinion: IT IS BORING.

I respect Prince, he's a huge talent, but I don't see the sense in banging out track after track of identikit songs.

This new one bores the pants off me, maybe he thought having a Linn drum sample in there would pacify his fans?

HobbesLeCute said:

oh yeah? well it made my wisdom teeth throb a little bit.

as for 'everyone disliking' the song...it ain't terrible/horrible/rip-your-arms-off-and-beat-you-with-them bad, c'mon now...

Don't like it, listened to it once(which is more than some of his cds i have). His voice is irritating on it.. the message is cool though. Would prefer to jam to Musicology.

My thougts:

1) The track kinda reminds me of Dorothy Parker.

2) At least Prince is singing on this track. No lame XENOPHOBIA, no lame BAD N.E.W.S., or no lame C-NOTE. There for a while I thought that Prince had forgotten how to use his mic.

3) My only real problem is that the quality is 96. 128 is bare minimum these days. NPGMC needs to up the bit-rate next time.

4) Finally Im more intrested by the fact that the supposed Chocolate Invasion has been pushed back and that we the fans (and no I don`t mean FAMS!!!) were told about it. Not only were we told about it he gave us a track (thou sub-par) as a token of patience & understanding. How many of you remember the "good ole days" when a project was announced (IE Crystal Ball 2 or the 7 CD sampling set to name a few), and then the project was scrapped without any word from Paisley Park???

Just my thoughts...

damn it is a turd and a half i swear.

IF this is the best vocal track he can come up with he can stick to his dumbass instrumentals - even they were better than this garbage.
