I got this album for Christmas, I always wanted this, and when I heard it was not being produced anymore in October, I had to ask 4 it for christmas lol.

Anyway, so I got it, and I have 2 say, this album is the BOMB! I can listen 2 every track and love it, this cd is a gem .

I was wondering what you all think, but I love it, and I think anyone who doesn't have it should get it NOW! (cunning pun there)...

It's okay. I liked it a lot when it was released but hardly ever play at all these days. There's some good stuff on there (P Control, The Most Beautiful Girl In The World, Shy, Eye Hate U) but it's a little too overproduced and retro sounding (in an 80's kind of way) for me to see it as the great return that so many people said it was at the time. A good album, not a great one.

Just my opinion, of course.

Every song on the album (with the possible exception of 'We March') is killer.

Even tracks I didn't care 4 much at first, such as 'Dolphin' and 'Now', are beginning to grow on me now, and I think it's easily his best album of the 90's...


...well along with 'The Truth'.

co-sign, but I quite like we march, maybe it was a bit basic tho.

It's quite catchy...but that's about it.

That's his best 90's album, in my opinion.

Shows you have some taste.

r1ghteousone said:

I'm gonna tap-dance on your face.

Cloudbuster said

Bring it on.

...watch my eyes though.

r1ghteousone said:

No worries, I'll take your eyes out first.

r1ghteousone said:

EXACTLY

Spookymuffin said:

Congratulations. You now have Prince's last great album to date. Where did it all go wrong?

Cloudbuster said:

But then I won't see the damage you're causing me.

r1ghteousone said:

But I will.

Cloudbuster said:

Will you tell me what's happening?

r1ghteousone said:

Sure. I'll record it if you want and then loop the best bits so you can hear your own discomfort in stereo sound.

Cloudbuster said:

Cool.

TOTALLY AGREE !!!

as a proud prince fan 4 now over a decade, i fell in love with this album as soon as i heard the 1st chords of i hate u...lol

it is nice that most of the music is live. by that i mean that it has michael b playing on it along with other npg members (sonny, tommy b., etc.). i like when he is playing with a band. the music on it is pretty good, but like others who have posted, i don't play it too often anymore.

Great song. Dolphin is tops (specially the guitar solo)
319, Billy Jack Bitch, I Hate You, Endorphinmachine, even Gold at certain times...Def. a good album.

I've had it about six weeks and since then I've listened to it probably more than any other P album. It rocks. Its maybe a bit over-produced but not as badly as Emancipation. Apart from We March it is mostly killer I agree, and you've got to love the references to his silly new name (espec. in I Hate U.) And I think Gold is a great song after a few listens.

Again, thanks to orgers that told me to buy it a few months back.

It's a great album.One of only two he made in the 90's the other being the Truth.

One of my favs Plenty of good songs, maybe the moment when I was happier about Prince.

I really like it. "Shy" is class and I remember "Gold" getting played on Simon Mayo's old breakfast show on Radio 1 all those years ago.

Anybody need it? A hardware store down the road from me are selling it on cassette for £1.50 in their closing down sale. Orgnote me if you want me to buy it for you.
