prince

Yeah the more I play AOA, the more I like it

PE... Not so much

3121 is my favorite late-era Prince album and AOA is my favorite since, so this hardly looks like a negative comparison to me.

yeah 3121 is cool. i'm just saying even the good stuff has a tryhard uncanny valley thing to it. a lot of my favorite later Prince stuff is the more classicist ballad stuff like "Call My Name" because it completely sidesteps the subtext of 'do i use modern drum machines? do i go back to the LinnDrum sounds?' anxiety.

quick quick y'all

thx. downloading the audio now.

i guess it's already been up for two months, which is weird.

9:35 "bitch" !

Woah, gonna watch this right now.

haha, epic guitar fucking (in dub) during that 'Head' jam

undoubtedly the best Prince album ever

'Breakdown' his best ever song

this is amazing

damn you guys

I wanted to go ahead and ignore Prince albums released since 2007

The trick with Parade is how it keeps the psychedelia in check by turning up the funk and keeping the songs concise. I love how bits like "I Wonder U" sound innocuous at first but boast a filigree or two to keep you going and listening forever (i.e. the funk guitar and strings over the outro)

I want whatever drugs you guys loving this album are taking! Best Prince album ever? Have you listened to anything pre-1990 by him?

I think they're talking about Parade. Which is still wrong.

I think the Capitol Theatre must have filmed everything. See also:

no

parade is my favorite prince album though

I mean, who needs Sgt Pepper when we've got "Christopher Tracy's Parade" and "Girls and Boys"?

Well, that's setting the bar low.

vous etes tres belle

now I just want to spend the rest of the afternoon listening to "Mountains"

The extended version should get you there.

You all can have Parade. I'm keeping 1999.

no, we get that one too

SOTT or GTFO imo

shut up already

damn

i also prefer certain prince albums

btw thanks for posting that youtube, that concert is fire

In high school I based multiple friendships on people's ability to complete lyric quotes from "Housequake". I am still friends with all of these people.

Friends, Lovers, Sisters, Mothers/Wives

AFTERSHOCK

Jump up on The One, now we're havin' fun

Shut up, already. Damn.

question

I am listening to AOA again on Spotify and am really drunk and even as a 45 y.o. white boy this is like the sexiest fucking thing I have ever heard.

thanks for posting that video of the Prince concert btw and keeping the dream of the internet alive

lol this reminds me of when I posted "Housequake" lyrics on twitter and Ned Raggett thought there was an actual earthquake happening in Seattle

Damn

Shut up.

Everybody, everybody; you gotta ROCK.
