Eye Hate U guitar solo.....

Is some incredible, aggressive, angry sex. I listened to it today and felt like mentioning its greatness. Agree?

I don't want to make you feel stupid, so please don't mess with me.

I didn't know guitars could have angry sex? lol Now for the solo...it's wonderfully awesomely awesome. I love to hear and see Prince playing without any backp just the man and his guitar. I don't think we have heard his full potential or realm of his use of the instrument. I would love to have a instrumental only record. cool

Oh yes they can! nod







This is the most amazing guitar solo ever played by a human's hand (and not even a perfect machine could do better). It's holy. It's New Power. It's greatness!!!!

That solo is a perfect moment to start crying - especially when you've just been left by your loved one. Reminds me of the sweetest moments in a sour time almost 10 years ago.

He hardly ever plays the solo's live the way he did in the studio and his playing got even more "loose" and "improvised" after the Revolution-era.

Apart from that, he hardly ever played the full verision of I Hate U live, just because the song is difficult to arrange live and also quite difficult to sing. Usually it segued into 319 after the first verse, live.

The first time I heard the complete version of I Hate U with that solo was at Paisley Park, Summer 1995. We were waiting on one of the Love 4 One Another shows to begin - P was very late and the DJ was playing stuff to tide people over and get theme excited: "Something new from the upcoming Gold Experience CD." Then, I Hate U kicks in clear as a bell. When that solo came, I could have sworn Prince was onstage tuning his guitar live it was so loud and aggressive! I had to check my ears and make sure it was still the record.

He must have really been in love with Carmen for her to inspire this song & great guitar solo.

People say that it was written because of her. Nobody knows, really, it's just a rumour.

the same lick Satriani plays in Always with me,always with you

There is nothing impressive about it except how it suits the song and fits the emotion.

You act like you wrote the solo. Calm down. It's great. Not difficult, but great. The guitarist in my band could easily play that solo.

Gohi i agree with you,its great solo.
But i don't agree that it isn't impressive
what makes it impressive is not how difficult it is,but amount of feeling
Prince brought in.
maybe your guitar player can play note by note that solo but with that kind of feeling i doubt...
