remember that that was just a demo too

that version will probably be shelved for something more commercial.

imo.

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!
woot!

When will he stop that! It is frustrating
when he finally gets around to releasing something and then he feels he has to make it more "accessible" sounding....

I hope it's there...but if it has the current lyrics (see below), will the album need a Parental Advisory label? lol


This isn't official, just a fan transcription:


This is the story about a One and Only mother,
There never was before, and there'll never be another,
Heck, Im gonna school her so fine, U'll wanna shoot her,
Dressed like butter, hold a Coupl-a Glass Cutter

Glass Cutter

Ohhh… yeah!

This is a jam about a purple fantasy
Every man know this how it's supposed to be
So sharp, make a brother heart go a flutter
Dress holdin' on to a Coupl-a Glass Cutter

Mmm…Glass Cutter

Oww
Oww

Tits [some say "It's"] about as hard as Arabian math
Water drops dripping when you taking a bath
the towel unravel 'til it looks like gravel
all a brother can do is just laugh… (ugh!)

But under his breath, he gonna mutter,
But under his breath, he gonna mutter,
But under his breath, he gonna mutter…
Baby, got a Coupl-a Glass Cutter.

(Clapping)

This about a mother got a brother sprung,
I looked up the word heaven, saw a picture of her tongue,
If she was a song, she'd be sung.
Sit around and I'll be a singer, so I can brang her (??) -
parmesan, cheddar, cheese... (please).
U better believe she gets what she wants,
'cause I want just what she got.
I'm a new car, and she's a lot…
a whole lot o' woman!

(clapping, guitar solo)

Girl got a case of 2 fine

She got it bad…
and that's good.

I’m gonna tell her 2 her face…
'cause another brother would.

I'm gonna make her heart beat go flutter.

Dressed like butter (?),
Coupl-a Glass cutter
Dressed like butter, (ah, ah)
Coupl-a Glass cutter

U make my heart go flutter,
Glass Cutter.

U make my heart go flutter,
Glass Cutter

I don't really think Glass Cutter was a demo - I reckon it will stay as it is.

By the time the next album comes out, we will probably have heard half of it - we've already heard Glass Cutter and Satisfaction, and he's played the song 3121 at some of his private parties apparently.

He did this with the Musicology album, Reflection and What Do U Want Me 2 Do? were up for download way before the album came out, and he played On The Couch and Life O The Party in concert (in Australia), and Musicology over various PA's, well before the album release.

It does take a bit of surprise out of the package.

Well, it's definately a song, because there were reports of it being played at his private parties and some of the lyrics were quoted. Prince tends to always have a song title the same name as the album, so it's not a far stretch to surmise that might be the name of the new album, especially since he's been advertising it with the number written on the back of his clothes at his recent NAACP awards performance.

I mean, it could be something else as well, like a movie, but I doubt it.

Glass Cutter is better than almost anything on Musicology. I love when he dusts off his guitar on an album.

No, it was only available for a weekend in the Glam Slam room months ago. And it was only 96kb bitrate.

It's playing in the background on the log-in page (or at least the first verse and chorus of it).

Yes it's a new song written/produced by Prince but it's not the name of his next single or ALBUM!

Well, since Prince is a musician, I can't think what else it might be. It would be a strange name for a concert movie, I don't think he's gonna suddenly start making real movies again either. He's already released a perfume, like most celebs do these days. A magazine? It would have limited appeal. I heard Sly Stallone has just released a magazine called 'sly' what a vanity project. A clothing line? I can't imagine Prince's clothes suiting anyone but himself. An airline? I don't think Prince is rich enough.

Am I getting hotter or colder?!

This is a great song, i love the glass cutter jam 2!
Upbeat and frisky, the wicked guitar playing and the clip-clap clappin' make me warm all over!

"hold a coupl-a glass cutter" is an odd phrase though - never heard it before..... what does it mean?
