You are speaking nonsense: this release contains no music that wasn't on any other release. Are you actually suggesting that one hasn't listened to 1999 (the album) unless he/she has listened to every different similar reissue of the album, for every possible country, in every possible format?

And though I don't own it, yes: I've known about this release for years.

How can we know for sure? Well, there are a few ways

There's a book named The Vault which is pretty comprehensive up to 2004, and before that there were a few other books and a magazine named Uptown, done by the same people since 1990, which covered all the then available data.

There's a website named Princevault.com that lists all Prince recordings, releases and concerts as well, but this one is up to date and 99,99% comprehensive as well.

There's an excellent thread made by Scififilmnerd on this very forum in 2009 that lists all circulating outtakes up to that year.

And in case you still couldn't believe me, I myself am working (though I haven't had the time to update it in a while) on a very much comprehensive chronological discography (see link below).

So when I say I've listened to everything save this or that, I know exactly what is everything and what is "this or that", and I think the other folks here do too. Some people here have been researching Prince's discography for 2 decades or more: trust them

All the official studio albums, internet albums, live albums etc. - yes. But as far as official remixes are concerned I haven't listened to all of them yet. Though to be honest, there are some tracks I skipped after listening just half of it. It's a bad habit and I try not to do that these days with any albums by anyone I listen to but as I was just beginning to discover him, all I wanted to do was listen to every single song of his that's available, including unofficial materials, and the amount of songs was just so overwhelming that I had this attitude in my mind - "well, this sounds like crap, I don't wanna listen to it all the way, he's got tons of other songs I can listen to and like anyway" lol.

I own and have listened to all of the above EXCEPT the ones in RED.

I don't understand what the 2001 Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic is....an alternate version of the same album???

Nope. I’m just not interested in chasing after some of the obscure stuff that’s universally panned. I doubt my life is worse for not ever having heard Goldnigga, or Carmen Electra’s album.

It is. A few remixes/extended versions.

http://www.princevault.co..._Fantastic

I've listened at least one time to everything he's released, and a lot of the unreleased stuff.

I don't listen to his stuff as obsessively as I once did. Around the 3121 era, I got kinda bored with the new stuff around that point, but I gave it a chance. Case in point, I just listened to the 2 songs he did on Kimmel, RnR Love Affair and Dance Electric. The "single" was kinda boring to me, but Dance Electric, a nearly-30-year-old tune, got me excited. I don't think I'm in the minority here, especially among the longtime fans. This ain't a knock against Prince, I'll still listen to everything he puts out, but both he and I know what people want.

Not so sure about Goldnigga. The record is funky, even with Tony M rapping for most of the time!

I don't understand what the 2001 Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic is....an alternate version of the same album???

Yes.

Rave In2 the Joy Fantastic is a remix album by Prince (his stage name at that time being an unpronounceable symbol), released via mail exclusively through the NPG Music Club, an Internet subscription service, on April 29, 2001.^[1] The album is an alternative version of Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic, released the previous year.

The album makes a number of alterations to its predecessor. One track ("Rave In2 the Joy Fantastic") is a brand new version, with altered lyrics and a faster tempo. Four tracks, ("Undisputed (The Moneyappolis Mix)", "The Greatest Romance Ever Sold", "Hot Wit U (Nasty Girl Remix)" and "Man'O'War (Remix)") have been remixed or had substantial musical elements added or removed. Three tracks, ("Tangerine", "Baby Knows" and "Prettyman") are mostly unchanged, save for slightly longer tag endings, or extended jams at the end. Five are unchanged ("So Far, So Pleased", "I Love U, but I Don't Trust U Anymore", "Silly Game", "Whatever U Do, Wherever U Go", "The Sun, the Moon and Stars"). Lastly, two tracks, ("Strange but True" and "Everyday Is a Winding Road"), have been removed and replaced by the moody "Beautiful Strange", a previously unreleased track written in 1998.

As it was released via the fan-centric NPG Music Club, the album received virtually no attention from wider media. However, with several improved songs, the removal of two weaker tracks, and the addition of "Beautiful Strange", one of the album's highlights, fans generally consider Rave In2 The Joy Fantastic to be superior to its predecessor.

[edit] Track listing^[2]

1. "Rave In2 the Joy Fantastic" – 5:13
2. "Undisputed" (The Moneyopolis Mix) – 5:45
3. "The Greatest Romance Ever Sold" (Extended Remix) – 8:07
4. "Hot Wit U" (Nasty Girl Remix) – 4:22
5. "Tangerine" (Extended Version) – 2:13
6. "So Far, So Pleased" – 3:23
7. "The Sun, the Moon and Stars" – 5:15

Not so sure about Goldnigga. The record is funky, even with Tony M rapping for most of the time!

Yep. The music's good, very funky. And even on Carmen Electra's album is some good stuff. The most annoying thing is her voice. "Everybody Get On Up" is a cool song, a trademark prince production with his voice in the background.

You are speaking nonsense: this release contains no music that wasn't on any other release. Are you actually suggesting that one hasn't listened to 1999 (the album) unless he/she has listened to every different similar reissue of the album, for every possible country, in every possible format?

There's a book named The Vault which is pretty comprehensive up to 2004, and before that there were a few other books and a magazine named Uptown, done by the same people since 1990, which covered all the then available data.

Nope. And thats what excites me about him.

Do you mean has anyone heard every single release regardless of where and when and how it was released?? I doubt it. Someone might have EVERY SINGLE printing of Prince music but that's almost impossible. Most here are talking about the music, not what it's delivered on. In other words why would I listen to 1999 II that was only released in certain parts of the world when I have the original 1999 album that has all the songs on it. So, again, are you meaning RECORD as in RECORDING or RECORD as in VINYL, 12", 45, CD, etc...That's what I think you mean. But my question is why would you want to and what's the point?

But you asked:

but really does any one know everything that

Prince has released???? The answer is YES!

has any one heard every single Prince song??? This answer varies...Most die-hards have heard everything circulating...Official or not.

[Edited 10/29/12 15:52pm]

yes - I own everything Prince officially released on CD and many additional copies on vinyl. I also have every official DVD and VHS. I have everything released through the record club as well.

Boots? Only the good ones ;-> But will GLADLY pay for them the instant they are released (see Black Album - yes, I have "both" versions)

I don't think this is too unusual for the folks on this board....

I'm sorry but you aren't making any sense.

Either u ask whether people have LISTENED to everything (i.e. every music).

OR

U ask whether they OWN everything (i.e. every version of every release, which doesn't imply that all have been unblistered and listened to).

One is about listening to music, the other is about collecting objects. I have gone digital years ago, I don't own a single physical Prince record anymore.

So please reformulate (again) your question clearly instead of asking A and then playng Smart Alec saying the question was B when people answer to A

Peace.

Read what you just wrote: heard, seen, listened. First you speak about hearing, then it becomes seing, and then you claim than listening is different than hearing...

Is English your native language? Because this here is really cryptic

NO, I have'nt.

think so .. if it was in a record store i bought it ..

I've heard everything above except In2. I've heard Beautiful Strange, so it's really just the remixes that I'm missing.

I think I've heard all the NPG Music Club tracks that didn't show up on TCI and TS.

Recent internet only stinkers -- check. Kick ass live jams from the 90s released as singles/promos (Days of Wild and The War) -- double check. 80s b-sides not on The Hits/B-Sides -- check. Random internet stuff at the turn of the century which is no longer available (One Song, U're Still the One) -- check.

There are some official remixes of, Dance 4 Me, right? I haven't heard those. I just noticed that a snippet of a song called Xylophone was streamed on NPGMC. That one hasn't made it to my ears yet. And I haven't heard some of the live stuff posted by Andy Allo on Facebook, althought those aren't exactly official releases.

Hmm, anything else?

Yes and C-Note

has any one heard every single Prince song???

Yup, I have everything official, every circulating unreleased track and 750+ concerts/rehearsals. Plus all the tv appearances, music videos, movies, etc. I think quite a few others do on here as well...

and no i know for a fact that it was not distributed all over the world and i know some people have never seen it

but if u have listened to everything well u r lucky and i envy u

Read what you just wrote: heard, seen, listened. First you speak about hearing, then it becomes seing, and then you claim than listening is different than hearing...

Is English your native language? Because this here is really cryptic

that just made me lol

its like hear no evil see no evil sing no evil

I've only heard one Prince song. For You. It's been stuck on a loop for the past 33 years! I love it! Has he done anything lately?
