...they stand in the way of LOVE, and we will smoke them all; with an intellect and a savoir-faire...

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

""Sexy MF" is one of those totally perfect Prince songs that only Prince could pull off. If you've ever heard a house band try to cover it, you see immediately -- it's bleeding ridiculous. "Shakin' that ass, shakin' that ass!""

Actually, every year on Prince's birthday, Midwest Product and Dykehouse come together to perform as Paisley Product, and they're a) able to pull off all sorts of songs that I thought only Prince could get away with, and b) much better than their regular music.

Last chance to vote.

I just listened to this again, I'd forgot how nice "Sweet Baby" is. The multiple backing voices by Prince plus the synth sound have an almost aetheric quality.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

What I expected, but "Sexy MF" -- ugh.

Alfred, Lord Sotosyn, Friday, 22 February 2008 00:05 (sixteen years ago) link

Aw, no votes for My Name Is Prince.

Have we done Dirty Mind yet?

Jordan, Friday, 22 February 2008 02:11 (sixteen years ago) link

I guess we could do it next...

Yeah, I thought My Name Is Prince would get at least some votes. Nice to see "7" win and not "Sexy MF" like I thought, though both are obviously great songs.

i'll be 117
you'll still be saying baby not tonight

"i wanna melt with u" has always been my fave on this. there wasn't an "eye" instead of the "i" in the version i have. what a fake world. that song is pure sex.

there isnt one perfect song on here but its all quite listenable and enjoyable. not as good as D&P overall.

Sexy MF is awful.

morning wood truancy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 13 December 2017 03:16 (six years ago) link

I don't hate it, but it's awfully pedestrian. His worst major single, for sure.

iCloudius (cryptosicko), Wednesday, 13 December 2017 04:20 (six years ago) link

Nah, it's a great track, though 'Love 2 the 9's' is even better!

Gholdfish Killah (Turrican), Wednesday, 13 December 2017 06:56 (six years ago) link

Alfie otm.

That song is actually the punchline of an anecdote I know about a friend’s encounter with His Royal Badness that I am afraid will lose something in the translation to text without the comedy Swiss accent

Bingo Little’s Breakout (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 14 December 2017 01:41 (six years ago) link

If I had to trim this album down to 45 minutes or whatever, you can guarantee that some of those minutes would be taken up by 'Sexy MF'

Gholdfish Killah (Turrican), Thursday, 14 December 2017 07:06 (six years ago) link

dismal turnout for 3 Chains O' Gold in this poll. :(

Id delete sexy mf and my name is prince and 7 too (so leaden, and I still have no idea what its about) if I had to make this 45 mins. All you need is the max, love 2 the 9s, morning papers, sweet baby, blue light, sacrifice, continental, damn u, arrogance, God created woman, 3 chains. Love this album but his song writing was less important than showing off the band.

The solo in "The Morning Papers" is the only thing wrong with it.

So who you gonna call? The martini police (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Wednesday, 21 July 2021 01:56 (two years ago) link

I have a hunch "Sexy M.F." will win this by landslide

Instead, "7" won on Joe Biden terms.
