What is your favorite song on Purple Rain?

[masterofsparks]

Sure, do another one. A sprawling album like The White Album or Exile on Main Street would be interesting, just to see if anyone picks "Good Night" or "I Just Want to See His Face."

Not "Turd on the Run"?

I ♥ "Turd on the Run" and "Just Want to See His Face". And I love "Casino Boogie", especially when Charlie's drums crash in after the first verse.

But "Good Night" is horrendous.

[snogrog]

But "Good Night" is horrendous hilarious.

Fixed. Seriously, the song make me giggle and I don't know why. It's insane.

This poll closes today!

Happy to see that every song got at least one vote.

Surprised that over 35 people voted.  Way more than I expected!

Touching on some subjects mentioned...

Sound Opinions - ugh.  I LOVE the idea of the show; I hate the execution...

Prince Albums -- Parade, underrated!  Controversy, overrated!  And I agree with Jesse Thorpe who recently blogged that Dirty Mind is  potentially best of the bunch vs. Sign O'The Times.



Do this again?  Every Picture Tells a Story?  Doolittle?  London Calling?  Rush's Moving Pictures? Liquid Swords?

Geez, I think one of these every week would be great.

Please clarify is it the song or the giggling that is insane?

Inspiring minds want to know.

I listened to ... a cassette 

I sent Tom a cassette a couple weeks ago.   Should I ask Mike and TeRRReeZZZ to play it?

Tom didn't.  Just made a weird sideways reference to it.

A "cassette"?
Geez, you really do like Tom.

Yep.

heh, heh, sorry, fonpr, I couldn't help myself.  
I just saw Deathproof again last night.  When the Rosario Dawson character tries to convince the stuntgals that she's sure some guy likes her by declaring, "he gave me a tape", the others gasp, "not a CD?", then agree, it must be for real.  Also I like the kewl of a lot of small labels ONLY releasing runs of cassettes or LPs these days.

Anyway, I vote for When Doves Cry.

What did I get?  The cold shoulder.

Via Facebook, I've just learned that Phish is going to be taking a big dump on "Exile on Main Street" tonight, for their "Halloween Cover" set. And they're dragging Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings into the whole sorry mess.

Suddenly, Pussy Galore's version is sounding a whole lot better.
