Thank you!

Great flash back. It has been a great time the last year, so many things happened at so many levels! Really gives me that hope that the world will be one.

P looks great and the tour seems to evolve endlessly. I do hope I can see Misty and P together, that would be great. I love ballet and I love P, so I'll just wait for my opportunity

Nevermind the bird feed honey, just tell me your name
You wont have that long if I get my way in this game
My reputation precedes me, call it claim to fame
They know me around the world, you want me just the same

[Chorus]
Why should you be satisfied with just heaven and earth?
When if you look around there's so much more to the universe
Maybe every shining star, is just another part
If you and I could ever open up our dirty hearts

(Oh! Open up baby. Oh. Hey-hey ...)

Listen

All of us in minerals and chemicals of space
You cary within your womb, that's how we got to this place
This might be a bit serious, but if it turns you on
Come with me now let's get nice till serious is gone

[Chorus]

(Oh! Come on! Oh! Oh. Get nice.)

Love is much to small a word for what you feel for me
If you ever let me explore your anatomy
You and I lost in each other prisoners let free
Come on Darlin' let's get down beginning endlessly

(Uh uh. Let's get down! Uh uh. Beginning endlessly
Uh uh. Let's get down! Whooh!)

Come on! You see that I want ya. Ooh wee!
Come on! Can't you see that I want ya. Feel me now!

History is full of praise for another's history
More and more than the one that became before both u and me
Left alone with our devices, whatever will be will be

A brand new story in the making beginning endlessly

(Oh!)

Love is much to small a word,for what you feel for me
(Feel for me)
If ever you you let me be, let me be your man
Ooh baby! Understand. I wanna I wanna be your man

What song is this???

lol All the songs I'm posting in this thread are from the album 20Ten

Get it on
Right on
A zero point approaches
And the field around you drop
Thoughts become reality
And it feels like time has stopped
When all that's on the radio
Is electromagnetic pop
Steady, your teeth are gnashin'
Compassion
Get it on
Compassion
Right on
Love for the greater number
Freezes over and cools
And everyone around you acts
Like a bloody fool
No sanctity to the left of you
No righteousness to the right
The only thing that's left in fashion
Compassion
Get it on
Compassion

Whatever skin you're in
We all need to be friends
All happy again
So much better than nothing
Everybody can win
With a little faith in man
Beginning of an end
Start up a brand new something
When ego, fear, and judgment
Become the rule of law
Watch the polar ice caps
Heat up, melt down, and thaw
When the greedy one forgets
That he's the reason for it all
The only gold that's so worth stashing
Compassion
Get it on, get it on
Compassion
Right on, right on
In the high-seated lawless no love can be found
Nature will rise against nature and get down

Whatever skin you're in
We all need to be friends
All happy again
It's so much better than nothing
Everybody can win
With a little faith in man
Beginning of an end
Start up a brand new something
If you got compassion
Let's get back in fashion
The new international anthem

Whatever skin you're in
We all need to be friends
All happy again
It's so much better than nothing
Everybody can win
With a little faith in man
Beginning of an end
And start up a brand new something

Whatever skin you're in
(Whatever skin you're in)
We all need to be friends
(Black and white and yellow, we can be friends)
All happy again
It's so much better than nothing
Everybody can win
With a little faith in man
Beginning of an end
And start up a brand new something

Prince w/Sheila E. - Live @ Roskilde Festival 2010, Denmark

Prince’s Welcome 2 America tour pulls into the Garden for the fourth and final time on February 7 (photo by twi-ny/mdr)

Madison Square Garden
31st to 33rd Sts. between Seventh & Eighth Aves.
Monday, February 7, $20.10-$179.50, 7:30

www.thegarden.com

Prince’s Welcome 2 America tour returns to the Garden on February 7 for its fourth visit, after stops on December 18 and 29 and January 18 (in addition to a pair of shows at the Izod Center in New Jersey). His Most Purple Majesty’s first East Coast jaunt since 2004 has featured tunes from throughout his career, with the setlist changing every night, ranging from “Kiss,” “1999,” and “Take Me with U” to “Controversy,” “Baby I’m a Star,” and “She’s Always in My Hair,” from “If I Was Your Girlfriend,” “Little Red Corvette,” and “The Beautiful Ones” to “Adore,” “Scandalous,” and “Insatiable,” as well as some strange, offbeat covers (Sly and the Family Stone and the Time, sure, but Sarah MacLachlan?!). Each show also includes various special acts opening up and later joining him and the New Power Generation onstage; past guests have included Sheila E., Larry Graham and Graham Central Station, Esperanza Spalding, Cassandra Wilson, Maceo Parker, Sharon Jones and the Dap-Kings, Mint Condition, and Janelle Monae. For the February 7 show, Cee Lo Green of Gnarls Barkley and “Fuck You” fame will get things going before the Purple One ascends the unpronounceable-glyph-shaped stage in the center of the Garden floor. We caught the January 18 show, and it was plenty funkalicious, with Prince wailing away on the guitar, crooning to a woman from the audience, shaking his booty with Jones, and continuing through several lengthy sets of arena-rattling encores. There are tickets still available, so grab them as soon as you can and get ready to go crazy.

Gorgeous pics from 2011..

Nice work. This thread is extraordinary. Thanks
