In A Large Room with No Light

...why give this newly recorded track to a jazz festival website and not share it on your own members-only site? confused

How thrilled would members be to be given a decent bitrate mp3 of the track? It would be SOMETHING on a site that's dead as a doornail.

people have been speculating that providing them with a new song might
have been a part of his deal with the montreux organisation (you know,
the deal that was reportedly making him the biggest payed headliner on
the festival ever blabla).

so that might be the reason why it's not up on lotusflower.com

is that a valid excuse to not put anything else up on the site? no lol

i was born with the wrong sign, in the wrong house, with the wrong ascendancy

I guess just to further anger his fans and show that he doesn't care about anything but money? That's what comes across anyway.

Yes that stench is rank....for him to name his website after an album project is bound for an early death - we all know how quickly he moves on to new projects, and the lotusflow3r ship (album/website/etc.) has sailed.

The lotusflow3r site has been so dead that this thought didn't even cross my mind until just now...

sad

Sigh...

EXAAAAACTLY!!!! WTF!?!?!?!!? We pay $77 to still have to hear about an unreleased track for a fucking Swedish festival--released for free on top of that? Fuck that little prick! IMO this is the last straw. You lost a fan, Prince. Oh sorry, "U" lost a fan.

I want a fucking apology from that little shit written on lotusflower, if he even updates that anymore.

Am I wrong to feel like he totally is slapping us in the face releasing a GEM of a track for free on a site that ISN'T lotusflower? Does anyone else think that is the biggest load of shit?

Fuck this tame shit, who wants some "Head"?

Same old, same old... let's not talk about the site anymore (I'm a member yes, I payed 77 bucks yes), please....

By the way, I'm happy he put out this song, even if it is a lot different from the bootleg version.

Montreaux is in Switzerland, not Sweden.

The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

you'd have to be a very deluded fan to think that prince actually cares about anything but money, when it comes to releasing his music smile That's been shown repeatedly over the years ever since he sued Uptown for daring to make a fanzine in his honor.

Fans are way down the list of things he thinks of, just below "toilet paper"

Prince probabally thinks "ive given em 3 concerts, 3 albums, a montreax concert and loads of jay leno performances. what more do the want?"

Maybe later this year he might put some more old music videos on his site if we're lucky? maybe we'll get the video for Gold, TMBGITW and a live video of Take Me With U from the o2 (was on 3121.com but prince does love a good rehash..) all added around november. Then we'll get nothing else till Feb next year where he'll offer us more stuff if we re-join...

such a hunk... so full of spunk... HEAD!

It's "Schmock". And yes, Prince has something of that, especially recently...

Wouldn't it depend on whether one was in the French, German, or Italian speaking region? (Or that other language -- Rumantsch or whatever it is...) smile

Coincidentally "Dead Flowers" is one of my favourite Rolling Stones songs.

I'm not saying it shouldn't have been posted to the Montreaux site, but it should have definitely also been posted to the LotusFlow3r site (perhaps as a WAV file).

yep. that would have been a nice thing. it would have shown the members
that the site is still alive and kicking.

also, if that one song were placed on that personal pop up screen when
you hit the prince it would have been a good indication of the onset of
a future retail store on the site.

perhaps those things will happen in the future but it would be nice to
know at least something.

the only thing this teases is my gag reflex. ps-why does he sound so sleepy on the vocals like he's afraid to wake somebody (himself?) up? did he record it on his back? in a library?
