am i missing something here, critics everywhere love this album, ive listened to it backwards and forwards, i think its a tad bit above mediocre, when i here these reviews talking about "a return to form" or "prince's best yet" are they fucking nuts

- Judging for the songs I heard (Musicology, Million Days, What do u want me to do, Reflection) the album is NICE, but not a masterpiece. TRC was much more interesting musically. This ´Prince is back´ thing happens because of the Grammy performance and the RR Hall of Fame induction and because it´s being released by Sony.
I hope the other songs are better, although I enjoyed Million Days a lot!

I wouldn't call it his best but it certainly is his best in years. I love it and it's in my Top 10 of favorite Prince Albums. I can play it the whole way through and it feels so great to be able to do that again.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I hope you can get the album soon. It's really good IMHO.

It's unfortunate that you're still waiting for that sequel to Purple Rain (GOODNESS SAKES, STOP LIVING IN THE PAST, YA'LL!!!),


Check your head: it's Prince who's living in the past: greatest hits tour, new album that rehashes old ideas and sounds, nostalgic lyrics,...

My HO too, though I think I'd swap ATWIAD or Lovesexy for The Black Album. But yeah, Musciology's in there toward the bottom of the top 10.

His best ever? Oh yeah right.

Gold Experience, 1999, Parade, Sign 'O' the Times, Purple Rain--they all easily kick the shit out of Musicology.

Musicology's a great album to me, but c'mon already.

And if Musicology is his best yet but only gets an 8/10, does that mean they consider albums like Purple Rain and SOTT to be albums that deserve lower scores than an 8?
lol
