Favorite Prince parodies?

I didn’t get this reference in Scary Movie at first when the first girl said she slept with him, but after becoming a Prince fan and learning about 👁️ Hate U, this makes much more sense now since the first girl was played by Carmen Electra

Any OutKast Fans? Which era of Prince would this album have fit him the most if he made it?

Pretty big OutKast fan and didn’t realize how much Prince influenced Andre 3000 here until listening to his music

Is Soft and Wet In Your Top 10 Prince Songs?

For me, it kinda has to be since I can never get tired of it nor is it out of my rotation. Play this jam nearly daily and it’s one of the most replayable songs Prince has. Love the fun sound to it as well

General consensus on the extended version of America?

I love this version, but I’d find very little reason to ever listen to it unless I just want 20 minutes to pass by. Also made me think of the fact that The Revolution played for 22 minutes just for the song to get cut down to a little under 4, but a lovely experience

What songs have shortened versions that are worse than the original?

Reverse of my last post, but personally I’d have to go with Pop Life as I’m listening to it. The 9 minute version is magnificent and I kinda wish it would never end

Are there any shortened versions of songs you prefer to their original length?

Recently I started to enjoy Automatic after listening to the shortened version of 1999’s deluxe and man is it a damn good song, but I feel Prince was going overboard making it 9 and a half minutes. Great song, but overstays its welcome by about 6 minutes

TIL: Homework and Discovery are better when on physical media than in streaming

While listening to Homework on streaming, I always found it odd how Revolution 909 transitions into Da Funk because the ending sound byte sounds like it should be one cohesive sound to get from 909 to Da Funk, but it doesn’t. It ends off Revolution and is repeated in the beginning of Da Funk. After listening to it on my vinyl, my suspicions were confirmed as it transitions correctly. Same goes for Discovery when listening to One More Time. I have it on CD and the sudden shift from One More Time to Aerodynamic caught me off guard, but makes much more sense to do than just let OMT fade out and then let Aerodynamic start. Anyone else notice this?

Confession: I’ve been having trouble getting into Prince’s later music

I want to finish my ranking of his albums, but man after 35 albums I just wanna be done already. I know I’m at the end of the road, but this journey does make me wish Prince released less music or at least less standard studio albums because 40 albums is insane. I still appreciate his music and work ethic and while Prince has some of the greatest music known to man, he also has some album runs that are mediocre like his run from Chaos and Disorder to NEWS or from Planet Earth to 20Ten. Still love Prince, but it’s hard to want to listen to PLECTRUMELECTRUM after 35 albums knowing there’s 5 more waiting

What’s the general consensus on Come?

When I ranked it after hearing it for the first time a few weeks ago, I ranked it close to the bottom of his albums and it’s been growing on me a lot, so I’m curious on the what Prince fans think of it?

Original Pressing from 1979?

I was checking to see if the copy I got of S/T was an original pressing from the year it released and based on the information Google gave me, I do, but I wanted to verify with any fans if I got an original press for a whopping $6

Adding 6 more albums into my collection

The self titled album was a surprise not only because it was in the used section instead of the Prince section, but it was also only $6. Also forgot the record store has CDs and they were all pretty cheap, even Emancipation was only $8

EDIT: The sixth album is Musicology, didn’t notice I forgot to add it here

Do you think Prince would still be releasing music if he was still alive today?

Not sure if this has been asked, but I’m curious on if any of you believe he would still be making albums currently because of his work ethic and passion for music or if he would figure to hang up the guitar at some point if he was still here
