The best part about Prince.org the people who insist that if you don't like everything the man has ever produced you aren't a fan. Please don't lump me in that group. I don't like everything he's ever put out, and I HATED Planet Earth. Don't think that just because I like his music Post-Name Change, that doesn't make me a Kool-Aid drinker, either!!! I'm just saying, if that person didn't like that song, chances are he hated Musicology, and he hated 3121 too. So, if he clearly doesn't like Prince's music, he's not a Prince fan anymore!!! I would never expect anyone to like every Prince song ever. Just like you shouldn't expect me to hate everything since Emancipation!!! I'm not trying to change his mind. I'm just stating my opinion. JERKIN' EVERYTHING IN SIGHT!!!!! | |

2elijah said: lspear76 said: Yeah, but I can tell a cook when his food isn't any good. Do I eat at McDonalds? No, because the food is hideous. Do I like "Turn Me Loose"? No, because the song is hideous. Even songs on Diamonds and Pearls and Love Symbol were tighter, thicker. Prince doesn't work with any real musicians anymore... actually, he may work with real musicians but they don't have any input or influence like Wendy & Lisa and musicians of the past did. That much is evident when you listen to the songs. What is Prince writing about? The predictable love song. The predictable "religious truth song". The semi-funky if you're 60+ years old song. Where's the magic? The meaning? The production? The lyrics? At this rate Prince should just get up there and start ripping on the guitar and not try to sing or write or anything, because he's proven himself incapable of writing a good song anymore. And if you're a musician and you can't write a great song, what do you have? Nothing... so you've got to patrol the internet trying to shut down sites. Why? Because you can't write music anymore so you have lots of free time. His time as a great, meaningful songwriter, with interesting stories to tell, is over. Cue up the "give me my freedom don't post pictures of me" song. When you start wishing Tony M was back in the band, you know Prince has hit an all time low. What's Michael Dean and Tobias think? I can tell you what they think. They think it sucks.  Okay, okay, I get your point and you're going way off ispear76, if you didn't like it you just didn't like it, point blank. It's not the end of the world for goodness sakes. Secondly this thread is not about him closing down sites or when he played with Wendy and Lisa, by the way, that time is over, he's moved on. Also, this thread is about the Jay Leno performance, and you already made your point about it. Peace [Edited 4/25/08 22:41pm] [Edited 4/25/08 22:43pm] Pssst... the song is about these websites that won't listen to Prince and agree to shut down and do whatever he says... that makes the internet shakedown talk relevant. "Don't you think one of the charms of marriage is that it makes deception a necessity for both parties?" | |

You have to be suspicious of someone's negative review when they write almost word for word the exact same review on Housequake. Talk about lack of creativity.
Now that's sad lspear76 and mrgoodnight.  | |

Now that's sad lspear76 and mrgoodnight. It's my review so why would I change it depending on which Prince site I post it on? I'm not some politician going town to town changing my story... "Don't you think one of the charms of marriage is that it makes deception a necessity for both parties?" | |

lspear76 said: I thought this new song was horrible. My girl and I sat through an equally boring and terrible Jay Leno show with about 90% more commercials than show... really, does anybody watch TV anymore?
Anyway, this new song was flat, boring, and utterly worthless. Yet ANOTHER song about how his online fans "don't know him" and that they should "give him what he needs". "Turn Me Loose" makes "Get on the Boat" look like Mozart. Give it a rest already.
And what kind of band was that? About a hundred people on stage. The only bright spot was Renato, who is a real trooper to lower himself to play such beautiful keys to such low quality music -- what a mess of a song. Embarrassingly bad -- a performance and song that wouldn't appeal to a person who was 18 or 80 or even the mentally ill. I felt ashamed watching it with my girl. 
Prince... in all seriousness... what's happened to your skills? There's only one thing left 2 do.....release the Kraken!!  | |

Prince's new strategy for keeping his videos and music off Youtube is to make sure no one would ever want to post it, listen to it, or view it ever again. "Don't you think one of the charms of marriage is that it makes deception a necessity for both parties?" | |

Um, yeah so anyway
member the performance with Sheilerz? Sorry, but...loved it and the difference is he actually seemed into it or sober rather | |

Those look suspiciously like the lyrics I transcribed and posted on HQ--even down to the comments in brackets. (I see you did add two little things of your own at the start & end.) I don't mind that you posted them here (that's what I was coming to do), but it's polite web ettiquette to at least credit where/who you got them from.

So superfunky? Did I get that right? That's amazing! I loved musicology and I love his more funky work. How can I get my hands on this show, guys? It'll be aired the 30th on cnbc, some nice orger told me?! HELP
And new song better be a new album. Would love that. | |

Mmmm, not so much. At least Musicology is a decent song in a cheesy pop sort of way, and he was actually "there" during that performance. Turn Me Loose is what you would use to get rid of roaches and chupacabras. | |

Turn Me Loose is what you would use to get rid of roaches and chupacabras. I guess what I'm saying is..interesting lyrics in that it's a playful pop format lyrics he does so well. I don't hear that in alot of music. Of course I'm not listening to much either. Musically he's on the same vintage plateau. Which is suprising I guess. What the heck are chupacabras?  | |

Very, very nice.
Also interesting to note that it's as sexually explicit as anything Prince has created in many, many years. | |

He's always had his "throwback" jams. I'd never say he was stuck in any one place(that's why most people like his stuff), and his records show that. | |
