The Truth Comeback

Only just heard this song right now... I'm Speechless!

Acoustic guitar? Don't get better than that, so fresh.

Nice to see there are still people finding about this song and realizing how good it is.

I like it when people are stoked on hearing some good old Prince, period (from any point in his career). Unless the vaults are opened (and they won't be), I don't think I'll ever have that experience again. And yes, great song. I'm of the opinion that 2/3 of The Truth and 1/3 of Solo Piano & Voice put together on one disc make for a great listening experience.

Wow, what a fool I am to have missed this for all these years.

I just love the sheer simplicity, & truthfulness about it.
It's like it's been stripped bare, to see it in all it's beauty.

There's no charade or facade,
Just truth at it's core.

And it's making me crave more...

If u like acoustic guitar, check out a musician called Tommy Emmanuel.
He was my Dad's favourite guitarist, my third favourite after
my father & Prince....

'comeback' is simply a stunning piece of work IMHO, just simple, pure, honest and true. Given the circumstances at the time it really does bring a tear to your eye when you listen to it.

Yes, I agree 100%. Sometimes u wonder how the human
heart can withstand so much pain. No wonder u hear about
poor souls dying of a broken heart, & it happens everyday.
Tis a wonder the world keeps spinning...

highlight of the 90's output. It's sheer apparent simplicity is something he should have tried more often
