1/5
Oh, more Prince. Looks like this album doesn't even have any of his big hits. Not excited. Some parts of Play In The Sunshine were half decent. How does a song called Housequake come out this lame. Why does Prince sound like a cartoon sidekick? Shouldn't a ballad have, like, nice singing? I would call the police if someone sang Hot Thing at me. I'm giving up before the end. Of the thousand and one albums to listen to before I die, which are supposedly good, I can't imagine enjoying something else less. I award Prince one star and may God have mercy on his soul.

Elliott Smith
4/5
I really like the vibe on this album. Rose Parade is very pleasant. But then all the songs are pleasant. I think I've heard one or two of his songs before but I'm surprised I'm not more aware of Elliott Smith. I think a lot of indie bands have been trying to produce this sound lately. Elliott Smith was way ahead of the curve. And then he died :(
