What I HOPE Prince does now...

Wouldn't it be great if Prince embraced iTunes or even his own version of it and released vault and concert performances on a weekly basis?

Say he has a million hardcore fans worldwide. Live tracks, studio tracks, remixes, all at 99cents a song?

He could clean up financially and keep his many fans happy as we start to hear music from the Vault track by track. Each song could be appreciated individually.
The album is dead.

I know I would buy all my bootlegs again if they were great quality.

What do you think?

That would be great, but I'm not holding my breath. Prince seems to love being the contrarian. The more fans want something from him, the more he refuses. Someone needs to figure out a successful way to do reverse psychology on him. lol

Sometimes I think that we've exchanged messages on some official Prince website forum but how could we have? confused

Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad.

That would be great, but I don't think that Prince would do it because of the surety that the music would be shared through various sites or avenues that would not provide a source of revenue for him.

I now present unto you an original person, one that is able to rationalize and make decisions that utilize intellectual significance. Yes, this person is on the endangered species list. - Patsheart April 2, 2009

The album will never be dead, anymore than Mozart's symphonies are better heard in pieces. When the musician does it right, it's a eargasm from beginning to end.

Prince should just follow his muse. We shouldn't expect him to do anything else...othere than apologize for some of his outfits. lawd

I think this is very wrong of you all to make me look at these photos whilst I am at work -

i am coming over "all unnecessary" as we speak - (such Yummy Photos)

Now I am fanning myself off with my clipboard-

perhaps I should go out and stand in the Brisbane rain to cool off right now (has been raining for days !!) cool

Thank you Prince for every note you left behind 💜
