Agree totally. Colonized Mind is a favorite. Musically speaking, to my ears, it is one of the most captivating thing Prince has done these past ten years or so. I even think the upload/download motif is kind of cool: you reap exactly what you sow, or better, you download what you upload.

I'm drunk as hell right now. also excited to hear the new song. last year was great, we heard some great songs on the radio (wall of berlin, colonized mind and forever) I will probably be dissapointed by the other songs of the album, if there's going to be one, but hearing a new song for the first time on the radio is great. even if it's not that good. It's like playing the lottery, it's the excitement that counts. and MAYBE we will hear something extraordinary good

cheers!

i guarantee that the song is gonna be shit and almost everybody is gonna be let down.

just going by Prince's track record.

I hope it's not, but who knows. The LotusFlow3r disk was hyped the same way with booming drum beats, and incredible guitar solos, and infectious melodies, yet....meh, not so much.

I'll still take a listen.

I am so independently, and unofficially excited for this one!
Go team purple

fucking yay!!!!! will we be able to web it?

An open plea to 89.3 The Current...

Please refrain from talking over any part of the airing of this new Prince song. Not over the intro. Not over the middle. Not over the last note, or decibel of fade out. It's annoying as hell, and it will piss off potential return listeners to no end.

-Thank you.

They talk over it for a reason. Bootleggers. Station identification please.

New Prince song to debut Friday on Current

After making a meaningful appearance at the Current's fifth anniversary party last month at First Ave, Prince has given the Twin Cities public radio station first crack at a new song called "Cause and Effect." The track -- described as "a rocker filled with virtuosic guitar work, explosive drum breaks, a poppy chorus, trademark shrieks and whoops" in a Current press release -- will debut Friday at the very un-Princely time of 7 a.m. (89.3 FM or online here). Presumably, they'll keep playing it throughout the day.

The last time Prince gave a new song to a radio station, it was the prominent (but now defunct) Los Angeles station Indie 103.1, so this is quite a coup for the nonprofit Current. It's very appropriate for him to premiere the song locally, though, since he has been living here again for a few months now and recording a lot out at Paisley Park in Chanhassen -- despite assorted distractions worldwide. No word on a full album release yet, but this track will reportedly be issued along with many more on his $77 annual subscription service at www.LotusFlow3r.com.

A Prince debut on the Current

"Cause and Effect" to debut Friday on his hometown station.

After making a meaningful appearance at the Current's fifth anniversary party last month at First Avenue, Prince is giving the Twin Cities public radio station (89.3 FM) first crack at a new song called "Cause and Effect." The track -- described as "a rocker filled with virtuosic guitar work, explosive drum breaks, a poppy chorus, trademark shrieks and whoops" -- will debut Friday at the very un-Princely time of 7 a.m. and continue airing throughout the day.

It's one of a batch of new tracks the singer has been recording at his Paisley Park Studio in Chanhassen and will issue via his $77 annual subscription service at www.LotusFlow3r.com. The last time Prince gave a radio station an exclusive premiere, it was to prominent Los Angeles station Indie 103.1.

"After several years of living in L.A., it seems clear that Prince wants us to know that he's back" in Minnesota, said the Current's program director Jim McGuinn.

We at least know the singer was not in Dublin on Tuesday, where he was expected to appear in court as a defendant in a $2.5 million lawsuit over his cancellation of a 2008 concert. Lawyers for the co-defendant William Morris Agency gave no explanation of Prince's absence, but they denied wrongdoing and said the singer would provide a written statement, the Irish Times reported.
