when you haven't heard it in a while...

.


... THE TRUTH sounds so good!

The line, "I'm over 30 & I don't smoke weed" popped in my head tonight so I had to put it on. music Sitting here listening to it now as I write - DAMN, now I'm dying to hear Don't Play Me or The Truth in the acoustic set of the shows! I can dream! razz

Anybody else think Man In A Uniform sounds a little off @ about 20-22 seconds? That part always throws me, it's like his singing comes in on the wrong beat or there's an extra beat that shouldn't be there or something. hmm

Anyway, great disc. Love that his catalogue is so big you can ignore stuff for a while & come back to it sounding fresh & good as ever.

That's why I like the fact that he has so much music out there...you never get bored.

I will have to listen to the truth..it's been a while.
thumbs up!

Actually, it's more between 18 - 21 seconds, where he starts singing the first verse...

Girl, you're asking me to listen to that song for 22 seconds???

no no no!
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

NO lol There's wackiness @ 18-21 seconds IMO. I guess nobody else hears it, so the wackiness resides with me biggrin

Play "The Truth" back to back with "The Vault"! That would've been a killer 2 disc set! They feel good together!

I wonder how well The Truth would have done commercially if it had some promotion behind it?

Comeback is just too painfull 2 hear esp since we know where its from, its amazing how he could make yo heart wrench in 2 minutes.

The whole album still sounds fresh as a morning's breese altho I rolleyes whenever I hear "The Animal Kingdom"

I LOVE "The Truth." Don't understand why people treach Prince so harshly. It was a great album...

Im afarid there may well be something wrong with you biggrin

How the hell can you take a song seriously that refers to fish as your "brothers and sisters"

I would never slap my brothers and sisters on wholemeal with mayo....thats dirty and verging on incest eek

Im afraid that any song where Prince gets all righteous sticks in my throat...be that about slavery,animals etc and I hate it for the same reason I hate door to door salesmen and people who knock on my door and wont leave when I say Im not interested in Jesus.

Musicianship-wise & production-wise its off the chain but I couldn't relate to its message lyricaly.

Yeah, I agree. You can't take the song serious at all, even though you know he's being serious. I get a real kick out of singing that one line, "Who told us we should eat the swiiiiine," every time I'm cooking bacon.
