prince's 1999 album is crack in the form music

[I love Latina women]

i ain't got no link to this classic album but i'm listenin' to the cd right now for old time's sake and just had to make a thread for it

this is easily my favorite prince album after purple rain, around the world in a day comes in 3rd place behind the both of these classics. but there no weak tracks on this album, none whatsoever

1999 = classic party/dance jam
little red corvette = magical, classic. the way way prince started his verse off it's prince's best song aside from "the beautiful ones" imo

delirious = excellent throwback to the days of rockabilly tracks

let's pretend we're married = excellent, the anticipation of the song from the first few seconds of the song alone nothin' short of amazin'. genius
dance music sex romance = brilliant
automatic = the way this song sounds is just brilliant, it's like an unofficial dance jam

something in the water (does not compute) = underrated gem, i love how the drum track sounds so quirky at the beginnin' of it
free = beautiful gospel-esque song, got vanity singin' background vocals on it

lady cab driver = that 80's funk

all the critics love u in new york = great

international lover = classic ballad


classic album from start to finish

Stevie Wonder >>> Prince and Michael Jackson

something in the water is my favorite track on
that album....free/international lover are that crack!

 

[Dusty Bake Activate]

I've always felt this was his best album. 1999, Purple Rain, Sign O the Times are the holy trinity of Prince classics. Most people would probably put 1999 at #3. It's #1 to me.

I don't care much for Delirious, but every song up there is near flawless. I love Lady Cab Driver. And International Lover is a top 5 Prince slow joint.

Parade ain't the level of the other 3.

Sometimes It Snows In April though.
