Advantages: Fun, funky and brash
Disadvantages: Possibly too risque for some
Dirty Mind is a very dirty album. Prince goes overboard singing about absolutely anything sexual he can think of. The title track is a corker and sets the album off nicely, sort of lulling you into a false sense of security before he hits you with the really disgusting stuff. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with the lyrical content of these songs, most of the time it seems to be with such humour that it really couldn't offend, but I think you should be aware before buying. The second song on the album, 'When you were mine', could be described as one of the greatest pop tunes ever written, and not just by Prince. It is absolutely fabulous, and doesn't date a day since 1980 when it was released. This could be reason enough for buying this album. The next stound out song is track 6, 'Head'. I will leave it up to your own imagination what the song is about but it leaves nothing much to the imagination. Track 7 is 'sister', a song about incest. Nuff said. Overall, the album is a good one. Tremendous songs with tremendous lyrics, even if they are somewhat crude.
