Before those of you who read my reviews start to think I'm totally biased when it comes to Prince, here's a little surprise. I do not like the album Controversy.
The title track is a good song, although perhaps a little dated now, and at over seven minutes, a bit long.
"Do Me Baby" is also worth a listen - it's a nice ballad.
That's where my positive comments stop, I'm afraid. I keep this CD purely because it's part of the collection. It doesn't even have a decent inlay to read whilst you're waiting for the album to finish.
This is thoroughly bland, disappointing, dated and... well, you get the drift.
It's saving grace is that it STILL isn't as bad as New Power Soul. Anyone cottoned onto the fact that I don't rate that album at all yet...

Advantages: Uplifting songs, tender ballads, brilliant songwriting and numerous other positives! Disadvantages: Album released as a single track, other than that, pretty perfect!
