RONG 2

ftr i think they are both pretty classic covers, just like the chronic one much more.

If there's ever a shitty album cover/classic album thread, Doggystyle would be my nomination.

Maybe there is such a thread. I ain't digging for it.

I Want You is bleh, but what I've heard of Here, My Dear is fairly incredible musically, even when it gets too literal lyrically.

first part of that obv

you'd be right if "The Chronic" was in a word balloon coming from Dre's mouth.

nobody's gonna agree w/me on this (and i like prince) but wrong is rong, right?

Prince is about 800x better than Bowie

800 is a lot

Prince is about 800x bettereasier to write a shitty book about than Bowie

-- Matos W.K., Sunday, 11 November 2007 20:44

Fixed.

oh come on like anybody couldn't write a shitty book about bowie

prince is like 3x as good

I'd even go 10x! If we're only counting Bowie since Prince has been recording, then we're getting closer to 800.

lol scruffy white dudes all have a crush on prince
dude has like what, three good songs? Meh.

he's okay i suppose

awww u know u guys like raspberry beret!

Has Prince ever been seen publicly playing a saxophone? If not, maybe that's something Bowie does better. By default.

RONG

return of the scruffy white dude
throwing darts in lolers eyes

and dude dont go "scruffy white dudes" on me after that whiteboy goatee and yr 56 YMO cds

i mean blood diamonds though

potshots all round
seriously though even if prince and bowie were neck & neck in the writing and production stakes, prince has done a lot more vaguely embarrassing shit vis a vis blogging about himself in sub-txt msg 11-yo girl talk and trying to change his name to a hieroglyph for "sexually confused"

EVEN RONGER

BOWIE MADE A DRUM 'N BASS LP FFS

yes David Bowie has not done much "vaguely" embarassing shit

How beautiful do the words have 2 be
Before they conquer every heart?
How will U know if I'm even in the right key
If U make me stop before I start?

CHORUS:
If I came back as a dolphin
Would U listen 2 me then?
Would U let me be your friend?
Would U let me in?
U can cut off all my fins
But 2 your ways I will not bend
I'll die before I let U tell me how 2 swim
And I'll come back again as a dolphin

Why does my brother have 2 go hungry
When U told him there was food 4 all?
This is the man that stands next 2 the man
That stands 2 catch U when U fall (Oh!)

CHORUS

If I'm under water, will U find me? (Find me {x4})
Will U shine a light and try 2 guide me?
It's happened before, I've knocked on your door
But U wouldn't let me in

How beautiful do the words have 2 be
Before they conquer every heart? (Oh!)

If I came back as a dolphin
Would U listen 2 me then?
Would U let me be your friend?
Would U let me in?
U can cut off all my fins
But 2 your ways I will not bend
I'll die before I let U tell me how 2 swim
Come back in the end as a dolphin (Oh)
(I'll come back, baby)
(Let me in, let me in) As a dolphin
(Be my friend) Dolphin
(Yeah, yeah)

Dolphin
As a dolphin
As a dolphin
As a dolphin

"If I Was Your Girlfriend" was also written for Tombot.

Y'ALL LIKE STEVE ROACH

does anyone remember that early 90's ad for Ecco the Dolphin that had Jacques Cousteau in it?

fwiw i think bowie and prince at their respective creative peaks are about equal

obv you're not a scruffy white dude then

"tired of motherfuckers tellin me they're down with prince"

LOL tombot listens to hot chip

but yeah i had a interesting talk last night about how in 2001 suddenly every indie rocker in san diego had a sudden need to pronounce chest-beating undying fealty to bowie, prince and the stones

hahahaha

I keep hitting reload! http://www.neoflash.com/forum/Smileys/classic/smiley.gif

ecco the dolphin suckeddd.

that game actually came up in conversation tonight! weird

i never got past this one part where you had to swim against this really fast current or some shit. it was such a weird game. pretty graphics for the time, though.

i heard prince bowie and the stones were all gonna do the soundtrack originally but then the joke lost steam before i could finish it

prince is the best and dolphn is a great song especially the version on the undertaker.

obv you're not a scruffy white dude then

lol i'm more of a "greasy white dude"

what 3 songs is tombot talking about

my guess: "dolphin"/"scarlet pussy"/"starfish and coffee"

the batdance, the batdance and the batdance.

this thread needs an enema

People hating on Prince are so fucking RONG.

Yeah! And Bowie can't really sing! (But everyone knows that already, I guess.)

This is not about one being better than the other as much as it's about not recognizing that they're both fucking talented.

The second Eco game is AWESOME.

But one IS better than the other, nonetheless! And I say that as someone that's loved Bowie's work since before he started sucking.
