As Andre3000 from Outkast put it "The Greatest Album of All Time" Prince was so great.

Prince's masterful Sign O' the Times is a musical masterpiece. It's a messy, ambitious, stunning, fun, beautiful, inventive, and an important album. Hands down his best work.

@keithbell9348 5 жыл бұрын

Compare the album version of It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night, to how he performed it on the Sign o the Times concert film. Absolutley Impressive!

I have been a huge Prince fan for a lot of years and this is one of the best reviews of this album. Not only is Sign O' Times my favorite Prince album but it is my favorite album period. Prince went deep into his psyche and soul to create this masterpiece. Every time I listen to this album not only do you feel you know Prince the musician, composer and producer. With the lyrics to most of the songs having so much depth about human relationships. You feel like you know Prince the man himself. I have so many Prince albums and he has one of the greatest music catalogs in pop music history. Thanks for the great review! Also so him twice in concert and both concerts were incredible. When he died this world lost an incredible music genius and I am so sad he is gone but he left us with a lot of incredible music.

Best album ever! Adore is the best piece of art work ever; you don't get better than 6:38 of this song. Strange Relationship is my number 5 all time song period. Sign O The Times produced 2 of my top 5 favorite songs. I liken this album to Stevie Wonder's Songs in the Key of Life. Good review guy; as a die hard Prince fan for decades you did it justice. Thanks for your energy!

How great is this album, right?! That three-track combo of If I Was Ur Girlfriend, Strange Relationship, and I Could Never Take The Place of Ur Man kills me every time. My favourite experience with Prince was listening to Around The World In A Day in one sitting. It's such a brave album that flows together in a way that I'd never heard before. Hey, man, could you do a video about Sufjan Stevens album Michigan? I think you'd really like it.

That's a great review usually I don't watch reviews but you did a great job. You need to be in Hollywood you do a better job then any of these people on these ET shows. I only ever got to see Prince once live, Madisen Square Garden back in 88 the best part of that concert was when Prince stopped the show and yelled at some guy in the front row who was smoking weed he said hey we don't do that sh*t here you don't put that out I aint going on. I wanted to stand up and cheer! :) The guy stopped an Prince went on with the show. That's my man. :D

Your review was so open, honest and pure, that I became a new subscriber. Awesome review. Your powerful words at the end honestly choked me up. I became a fan back in 1978. I was introduced to his music by my aunt.......who unfortunately died a couple months ago. I’ve been a Purple addict ever since. And today.....I’m STILL a crazed fan AKA friend of his music (I’m 51, by the way.) as I was in the “For You” days. Cheers to you!

great review of an excellent album. Sign O the Times has to be in the top 4 of any serious Prince fan's favorite albums. you, Eric, articulated well a lot of what makes this album so great. I used to be a hard-core Prince fan - especially in '87 when this came out - but as "schooled" on Prince's "belle époque" (1978-87) as I am, even I didn't know those details about "strange relationship" that you put out there. you also did a good job of expressing your appreciation of this album - now 30 years old - continues to deserve all the praise heaped upon it.

Growing up in the 80's I was obsessed with the man. I remember counting the days and hours to the release of this album. When I finally got it I played it several times a day for more than a year. A true masterpiece. I was also lucky enough to see him live in Copenhagen. Those were the days

@Rad9000 8 ай бұрын

That personal note broke my heart. My two biggest artist inspirations growing up were Prince and Bowie. I had been a fan of both my whole life. When I was 11, Controversy was released and I was hooked. For the uninitiated I recommend the B-sides from Around the World in a Day, Parade and Sign O' the Times. Some of his best work can be found there.

Really enjoyed this excellent, insightful and knowledgeable review. Sign 'o' the times is my favourite album ever and the review gives a real sense of what a great musically diverse album it is! Can't believe it's over 30 years old, it still sounds so fresh and relevant today, The cross, I could never take the place, Dorothy Parker, Adore, Slow love, If I was your girlfriend and the title track are some of the best songs he ever recorded and I never get tired of listening to them. If anyone likes this album and has never seen the Live Sign 'O' The Times concert DVD you should really check it out, its an absolute must watch! Thank you for the review and thank you Prince for the best album ever made!

@robertbeckerbecker1354 7 жыл бұрын

I love Prince. I recently ordered this CD and I can't wait. I've heard a lot of these songs and the variation of styles on it is excellent. Like all great artists, Prince never stayed in one genre or sound for too long (ie David Bowie, David Byrne, The Cure, Death Grips, The Beatles, Peter Gabriel, etc.). Also I believe artists like these always have one cohesive album were they explore a majority of those different types. For example, The Cure's "Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me", Death Grips' "The Powers That B", and Prince's "Sign o the Times". Thank you for the great review! Keep it up!

I can't say enough about the production value and your entertainment you seem extremely knowledgeable and actually take the albums in unlike most critics who kinda rush it to cash in obviously this is an older album but you go into depth with the history and specifications of the music rather than just saying if you like it or not and Man do I appreciate it .

Regardless, I was lucky enough to take my mom and LITERALLY I cant express the emotions that came in the middle of the show when the lights turned purple and the opening of purple rain started. I get goose bumps still. We also were delighted to not only 1 but 2 encores. The last one he played for about 50 people since it was about 20 mins after the show ended.

At the time of the album's release I remember some critics praising this work as such a grandiose departure from the previous Purple Rain era projects, that they compared it to the Beatles Sargent Peppers/Rubber Soul projects from their previous works as well. For me, it took time for me to fully appreciate the direction Prince was going with this. But the more I listened to it, the more I caught on. And I thought it was brilliant on Prince's ability to reinvent his musical style. In fact, insiders who worked closely with him revealed that while the rest of the world was heavy into the Purple Rain thing, Prince was behind the scenes distancing himself from it all and moving on.
