Somebody find Susannah, and fast!

Geez, this man needs a muse! This sap of a new single is so unmoving it hurts. Shit, he may as well have given us a re-mix of WDUWM2D? or Tangerine.

Te Amo 1980s Prince!

Definitely not buying this single. Geez, I'd rather be locked in a room with a radio playing NEWS non-stop without any ability to turn the damn thing off.


Either somebody's got a problem telling the truth or somebody's fronting their ass off. You knew what you were gonna expect and downloaded it anyway disbelief

Either way you knew what to expect from the preview. Why would you give a damn who or what the inspiration was behind it?

Let's not start an argument or anything; I was just sharing my reaction here. My hope in going to NewPowerRadio was that the whole song was much better than the little snippet that has been available for the last 2 days or so. Sadly, it was not. Had the opposite been the case, I would be here singing the praises of a hot new track. Unfortunately, this ain't a hot new track. It's weak as hell. I guess my expectations - along with those of so many orgers - are too high when it comes to:

(a) choices for lead singles
(b) the quality of the tunes being churned out of whatever studios he's using these days
(c) getting the kind of music that reminds of why you're a Prince fan

Sadly, at least for me, this song does not remind me of why I'm a Prince fan.

Yep that just about sums up Prince these days. His music does seem really unmoving.

Prince used to write gut-wrenchingly honest songs.

They never felt contrived.

Now they seem more gentle but with very little impact.
Shut up already, damn.
