It's Been 7 hours and 15 days
Since you took your funk away
I went out almost every night
and couldn't sleep all day
When you bought your funk this way.

You can play whatever you want
Wherever you choose
But for 21 nights in London
You proved that
No-one compares
No, no-one compares 2U


Thanks Prince for the greatest series of concerts and aftershows ever.
Orders, I know the lyric is 13 days, but I missed that one.

Didn't Sinead O'Connor sing 15 days?...
You could just say it's an adaptation of that version instead.

Yeah, call my name was the song I sang all the time after Prince left.

Hi Andy, you're not the only one who enjoys poetry. Here is one I wrote after the 20th September concert.

For weeks now the anticipation,
And developing expectation,
Has made me confess,
And often obsess,
On thoughts of my pending elation

The day comes: nothing will defeat me,
Only smiling faces can greet me,
The journey's a breeze,
And passes with ease,
Like Irish, Road Rises To Meet Me

Arrival. The concert hall's buzzing,
With friends old and new, shoulder rubbing,
House lights are dimmer,
Circulates simmer,
Of breathless rev'rance for what's coming

The first note sounds and we're ecstatic,
For it's a sign firm and emphatic,
In commanding voice,
That there's but one choice:
Surrender to sounds autocratic

Time stands still. We've been here forever,
Pond'ring this catalogue of treasures,
Crowds out of focus,
I only notice,
The artist and I here together

Returning home, there's reminiscing,
On recent good times that we're missing,
Back to our ritual,
Things so habitual,
But glancing backwards for pure blissing
