Free Music Notes for Planet Earth
Free Music Review: if only u could see the question mark over my head
Hit: 3 Stars
I am, what you call a classic Prince fan. I have collected his music from Prince to Sign O the Times consistently and other albums in between like 3121, which I really dug, and musicology, which still to me showed his purplenesses prowess when it comes to ripping out tracks with a great hook, most of the time. But with this disc...I dont get it. There is nothing wrong with changing a musical direction and Prince has always had my interest when it came to experimentation, like Parade and Around the World in a Day. Its like fleeting thoughts put to music that is completely forgettable. To see if it was just my imagination, I listened to every track twice in different sittings and I feel like he is either depressed or has entered a place in his life where he has "been there and done that" and has nothing else to say about it. I am not looking for another 1999 or a repeat of his prior albums, but I think there is something lost in this album that I dont even think that Prince can say what it is. At least, thats my opinion. The only reason it has 3 stars is because he still remains one of my favorite artists and for what he brought to my life, musically.
Planet Earth Poster
Because it would be un-Prince-like to release a new studio album without kicking up a little controversy first, the Artist Formerly Known As a Cool-Looking Symbol gave away copies of Planet Earth with a British news tabloid weeks before its U.S. release. Among the reasons he shouldn't have: nobody who catches wind of the peerless funk-rock-soul he lays out on these 10 tracks--least of all longtime fans--would think twice about shelling out for it. A big chunk of the appeal is that Prince finds his way back to his guitar here. The title track, a politically right-on-time environmental rant, steers him back toward "Purple Rain" territory, as does "Lion of Judah" ("Guitar," oddly, doesn't--it's more of a straight-up, shout-it-out modern rocker). And the flirty numbers are seriously flammable: "Somewhere Here on Earth" seduces with a crackly jazz vibe, while "Mr. Goodnight" gets friendly with a refined slip of rap. Coolest of all are two tracks at cross purposes-- "Chelsea Rodgers" fuses funk with disco until it's so far off the hook it's in a heap on the floor, and "All the Midnights in the World" paints a picture of artistic maturity through piano and lyrics that lean hard on positivity. There's an elegance to it that Prince fans, no strangers to pop music that's truly sublime, won't fail to appreciate. --Tammy La GorceSimply put, Planet Earth is the album longtime Prince fans have been waiting for. Several cuts on this album revisit some of the classic Prince sound the captured fans all over the world and helped deem him an incomparable music icon. Superstar and legendary musician prince kicked off 2007 with a show stopping Super Bowls Half-time performance. Prince pulled out all the stops during the second most-watched super bowl broadcast ever. With an estimated 93.2 million viewers to entertain, Prince wasted no time showing off his stages powers and irrefutable guitar skills. He masterfully captured the attention and respect of music fans in general, while sending a message to long time Prince fans that he was ready to once again reign supreme.
