In 1988 I wouldn't have entirely put it past him.

This is the sound of detachment bemoaning its own inability to feel.

I find this difficult to believe unless you are defining "musical" to be "Anglicized indie-rock".

I mean, in America, Prince is unquestionably the more prominent figure, just in terms of exposure.

Bowie has the highest entry but Prince has more on the list.
VERDICT: Inconclusive because it's Rolling Stone and the rules say that I must insult it.

Bowie's got 4 songs on the 500 greatest songs of all time list (46. "Heroes", 127. "Changes, 277. "Ziggy Stardust", 481. "Young Americans").
Prince has 6 (52. "When Doves Cry", 108. "Little Red Corvette", 143. "Purple Rain", 212. "1999", 299. "Sign O' The Times", 461. "Kiss")
Prince was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame I think two years ago? Whenever it was, he apparently played a gig with other inductees that was the best induction jam session ever.

I would love to see a "TS: Prince vs. Robert Pollard" thread, only to see Matos have to make that excruciating decision.

I'm also starting to wonder if Canada and the US differ greatly in their opinions on Prince.

This planet I guess, Prince occupying a different universe entirely. I wouldn't want go through every cd, but genres he's done which I don't think Prince has done; folk, reggae, chanson, ambient, krautrock, d'n'b, industrial, bootlegs, cabaret, classical.

you are wrong about pretty much all of these, except maybe industrial. "bootleg" is not a genre style.x-post
