Advantages: Uplifting songs, tender ballads, brilliant songwriting and numerous other positives! Disadvantages: Album released as a single track, other than that, pretty perfect!
...on the album but on Lovesexy that doesn't really matter as every song is at least very good, with many going to superb. Alphabet St. is again funky, with more guitar in than Eye No. It also has a rap by new band member Cat. Thankfully, unlike many of Prince's later attempts at putting rap into his records, it fits the song nicely and is a nice little touch.
Glam Slam follows, a song with lyrics that are very simple, but perfectly define the feelings ... ...you 2 tight, but I just can't seem 2 get close enough'. The chorus itself is very uplifting and this is my favourite song off of the album. However the song ends with a long instrumental synth 'crescendo'. Personally I like it alot, it's different and leads nicely into the next song, but when played on Radio One in the 80s, the DJ (Steve Wright I think) commented that Prince had at last gone mad, which might give you some idea of the publics perception ...
