It is available at Target for 9.99. The advertised price was higher, but the discount was given at the register. I got it on the first day. havent listened to it yet.

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
I AGREE! It's a new Prince album. New Prince is always better than no new Prince. If you don't love every song that's nothing new. Let him do what he wants and we'll all just listen, as usual. - Original Message - From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Wednesday, July 25, 2007 1:32 PM Subject: Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?

I really like the album. I'm on the side of it being one of Prince's
best in years. Better than 3121 and Musicology. In fact, I think it
will outsell 3121 and Musicology. One reason is that I think people
who haven't bought Prince albums in a long time, but know him from
the 80's and early 90's, will hear songs like "Future Baby Mama" and
want to buy it. I pretty much like it all and think this is a great
album. In my mind, the only recent album that trumps this is "Rainbow
Children".
And when you go back to that tour ("One Night Alone" 2001), it was
the last time he was really supporting an album by playing a large
share of the songs from it live. From 3121, for example, he's really
only doing 3 songs or something. I'm betting that if and when we see
Prince tour here next, he'll be playing at least half of this album
live - and it will kick ass. "Get On The Boat" didn't really hit me
until I saw him do it live - then it killed me. But with Planet
Earth, a song like "Chelsea Rodgers" is already doing it on record.
The packaging is very simple - no liner notes, just a few credits on
the back. No tracklisting. No "Prince". Not even the name of the
album on the spine. And what the hell is he wearing in those
pictures? - that black and red thing?? lol
Here's a very positive review of it from Entertainment Weekly. (Sorry
if it's already been posted.):

Are you saying PE as a whole is better than Lovesexy? ¡tu eres loco en el coco!. I agree, musically, TRC is a far superior album than both lovesexy and PE.

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
I have to say that I wish Prince would have just wrote songs about what was bothering him and spared us all the Graffiti Bridge era. "Elephants And Flowers" is really just a step below "Future Baby Mama". Seriously, I don't think anyone wants Prince to get all Mary J. Blige on us and tell us all his business. We just want some advancement in the recorded music. The concert prices are going up, but the experience we're getting for the price remains consistent.

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
Some great points have been made. Prince's music today is certainly
not the quality it was in the past, and he surely can use some creative
inspiration. The recent stuff is average. I still love him for his
outrageousness, and believe he'll find "the muse" he needs. Let's just
consider this era of his music a bit of down time for his Royal Badness.
His live appearances and performances still kick & have stood the test of
time. Peace.

You know, this is a brilliant point. A Muse. A LOT of artists we love need
new muses. It's like when Stevie Wonder had Syreeta around, his work was
incredible! Nowadays, we get "What The Fuss".
I wonder, though, is Prince's best muse himself or us? His live shows are
hands down great, and that's been pretty consistent for 30 years. It's the
RECORDED work that seems to vary in quality. Maybe he needs to record all
of his future albums live?

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
You know, this is a brilliant point. A Muse. A LOT of artists we love need new muses. It's like when Stevie Wonder had Syreeta around, his work was incredible! Nowadays, we get "What The Fuss". I wonder, though, is Prince's best muse himself or us? His live shows are hands down great, and that's been pretty consistent for 30 years. It's the RECORDED work that seems to vary in quality. Maybe he needs to record all of his future albums live?

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
Man that's really throwing stones, you remind me of my jeep! dam! I only like 2 songs on this new cd, but please leave us not forget he has put out some unimaginative music before. You guys know he's my inspiration, but right now. there's a lot to be desired. Truly he should meet a muze who could spark some glow in him. Faxing a new poem today.

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
See, I thought he was on to something with Black Sweat. When I heard it, I thought "ahh Prince is back on track!" then the rest of the album left me completely confused. I think if "Planet Earth" was D'Angelo's comeback album, for example, people would line up in the streets and throw stones at him. If any other artist tried "Future Baby Mama" we'd be talking about how R&B is dead. But because it's Prince, we're letting it go. I like when Prince plays hard. Extended versions. Solos. Funk. But I also like when he has something to say. Even when he was preaching to us, he had more moments than 3 out of 10.

I don't think he is trying to make hits, we have been conditioned by the industry to think that older artist with new music are trying to make hits. True in some cases but not for Prince. It only takes 2 brain cells to have a hit (example: this is why I'm hot, beautiful girls/suicidal) I think that Prince is missing a muse, someone or something to inspire him or spark him creatively. But we all know he has it in him to do better, or even dust off some of the jams out of his vault that haven't been released or bootlegged.

You mean baby knows? I like both of those songs but again my opinion. We all have music styles we like. And styles of Prince music we like. I really haven't liked his ballads on the last few albums - I want another adore, insatiable, do me baby. I don't think Call My Name, Satisfied, Future Baby Mamma really live up to it.

RE: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
I believe Prince did phone this album in. the creativity and lyrics are mediocre at best.

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
I DO have to admit, I liked "Everlasting Now". Lyrics were rubbish, but the music really knocked me out. And everyone knows, "Rainbow Children" was not a popular album. So I feel for you who say "Planet Earth ain't that bad". But I stand by my review. There's nobody challenging Prince musically, nobody telling him "that's horrible, P, come again", so he's phoning these albums in. Although...maybe that's why he has a new band.

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
I agree... I consider Planet Earth, Somewhere Here on Earth, Future Baby Mama, and Chelsea Rodgers among the best that he's done in the last decade. The One You Wanna C is still growing on me and the other stuff I still have to listen to more closely. As I have said before, to me musically it's a much more engaging record than Musicology or 3121--a lot more interesting musical ideas going on... it's going to be a slow grower that stays with me for a while.

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
It's decent enough for me to pick up so I will. Plus I promised a retail version to a friend in the UK who sent me The Mail on Sunday version as a trade. So I guess that'll make two. - NewPowerNewYork Mailing List website: Www.NPNY.Org - Unsubscribe? Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], in body place npny - Questions/Help?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
I can't imagine the liner notes of this record being anything I can't live without. When iTunes gets it, I'll get it. No matter how many people buy it this week, he's got a million units floating around England anyway, so it doesn't really matter this time, does it? He's gonna tell us it's platinum, and justify charging us 321 dollars for a general admission ticket to a show where he'll do all the songs he said he wasn't going to do anymore. I think the Kered disorder is catching. I just don't care this time. I WAS really excited, then I heard the songs. I'm gonna sit this one out until the Chelsea Rodgers show starts. Prince has become the David Beckham of R&B. Over-exposed and under delivering. We shall SEE if he's still got it like he did back in the day. What they BOTH need is some competition.

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
Well here's my humble opnion: Well,I'll let you know that it's at Best Buy for $9.98 and I have heard most of the songs, and they don't move me enough to buy it. I got mine from a friend over in the U.K.( and I thank her for it). but this is one cd that does not really impress me at all. The only song I seem to like is Somewhere here on Earth! Guitar is starting to grow on me though! Tozure51 - NewPowerNewYork Mailing List website: Www.NPNY.Org - Unsubscribe? Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED], in body place npny - Questions/Help?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I'm waiting for the double extended remix cd of the same songs in the limited edition gold foil case and 3121 temporary tattoo. lol -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Derek Kelly Sent: Tuesday, July 24, 2007 2:16 PM To: New Power New York Mailing List Subject: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
