omg this song is such a vibe!! i always turn it up when it comes on, something about the way he sings "raspberry beret" just hits different.

Music is completely subjective, but you are objectively wrong here.

Probably why I see stacks of his vinyl on shelves sitting there for over a year now. Dude is lost to time.

Hot take… but I agree, in part.
Try watching some of his live concerts. I prefer them to most of his studio recordings.
The man’s catalogue is full of tacky sounds and production choices that really challenge my ears.
He’s also laid down some of the best lyrics, melodies, hooks, rhythms & synth/ guitar licks in all of pop music. (Well… violin licks, in the case of this song).
I’m happy to listen past some occasionally grating production choices to hear the genius of Prince & his collaborators.
