You know untill fairly recently I thought he was absurdly overrated and 'sucked eighties style', Id have compared him to George Michael or someone. But a couple of years ago I got turned around, I think it was the song Seven, but I picked up Purple Rain at Fopp and its so fucking good it makes me regret all the years I ignored him. The Beautiful Ones rocks my world and Lets Go crazy has to be one of the most exciting opening tracks ever and at the Brits he blew everybody else off the stage I felt sorry for anybody who followed him, Im gonna be picking up more of his stuff fairly soon and if he tours Im there.
