My Review:

 

Planet Earth = Empty Room:

Big Rock opener. Starts off very intimate with just princes voice and piano, then in come the drums. Than for the chorus its even bigger with a stadium rock style chorus. The breakdown is ultra catchy, especially with the keys. 9/10

 

Guitar = I Like It There / Cream:

Good single material. Has a really good guitar solo that EVRERYONE will end up Air Guitaring. 8/10

 

Somewhere Here On Earth = One Kiss At a Time / I Love U But I Dont Trust U Anymore:

Very Jazzy. You can imaging Prince at a piano in some french resturant playing this song. Brilliant piano solo by Renato. 9/10

 

The One U Wanna C = Cinamon Girl :

Pop-Rock. Really Catchy song that will most likely be a single. The slap bass strangely suits the song (I wernt sure at first). Nice bursts of guitar here and there aswell. 8/10

 

Future baby Mama = (Melody) Eye Hate U :

Second best on the album. You wont get the verse out of your head for weeks. Very nice melody and the breakdown works well although could of been more powerfull. 10/10

 

Mr Goodnight = Push It Up! :

FBM's Cousin. Finnaly prince raps again! (Sort Of). Seeing as im a big NPS fan, i enjoyed this song, but alot of people might not might not. Picture Prince and rosie gaines doing the chorus whilst Tony M does the verses whilst the npg play in the background around 1992 (Gangsta Glam video would suit this song perfectly). 9/10

 

All The Midnights = Resolution :

This is a short, fun album filler type of song. Although its still good, but its too short to take seriously. When you start to get into it it goes off. 7/10

 

Chelsea Rogers = In Love :

Best Prince song in years! This is so funky! Shelby also is a nice addition. The whole song is perfect, Insanely catchy melody, funky dtums and keys with more slap bass thrown in on top. Best on the album. 10/10

 

Lion Of Judah = Wherever You Go :

I think W&L are on the last two tracks of this album. Starts off like Purple Rain with the guitar chords and bass drum combo. Religious undertones are in there somewhere, but its still a good song. 7/10

 

Resolution = So Far So Pleased:

Cheesy Christian rock. But the songs so catchy and upbeat that you end up humming and singing along. But its another song that too short. 8/10

 

 

All in all, the albums better than 3121. It rounds up the trio of albums nicely:

 

Musicology : 8/10

3121 : 9/10

Planet Earth : 9.5/10

 

I love 3121 but PE just slightly wins becuase of Chelsea Rogers and FBM.

Secondly, the return of Wendy and Lisa (Lion Of Juhda and Resolution)!
