Into The Light / I Will appreciation thread.

I love these two tracks, particularly Into The Light and the way it blends into I Will... definately the saving grace of the album.

Maybe it's now achieving 'cult status' amongst us fans. lol

These two songs merge very well together smile I couldn't listen to them separately... just like "Mellow" and "1+1+1 is 3"

Both those songs are two of my favorite songs and IMHO two of the BEST songs Prince ever did. The sax, the piano, the guitar...as Christopher Walken would say...WOW WEE WOW WOW!! music

To this day, I still choose to believe it works just as well as one single track.

I agree. I consider them one song.

The tracks between "Dinner" and "Into The Light" and the tracks after "I Will" drag the LP down.

The way they blend into one another sorta reminds me of the end part of the equally divine Circle Of Amour.

I'm not a big fan of "Into the Light," but that crash blend into "I Will" is sublime! The building and sudden release of emotion has brought me to tears at least once. And "I Will" is a great song.

One of Prince's best musical moments of the 90s, IMO.

Beautiful songs, both of them. Nice segue inbetween the too also. I don't know why everyone keep shating on this album. shrug
