don't really understand why Jimmy had Mariah on the show. How can U have two artist on one show? One MEGA ROCK GOD LEGEND & the other one. Not saying Mariah can't sing & is not a descent songwriter. But everyone was their waiting 4 Prince 2 make a royal entrance not Mariah. I bet they never even spoke or saw eachother . Mariah is just dying 4 Prince 2 give her one of his "MasterPieces" 2 record...

Well, you have to remember that even though Mariah Carey is one of the biggest stars in the music business, she is on the tail end of her career, and she was appearing on the show as a reality TV personality and not the uber diva she once was. In fact, Jimmy asked her if she had ever recorded anything with Prince, and she said that she had not, though she would love to do so. Now as much as I love both Mariah and Prince, if she ever tried to work with him with that diva attitude she has, he'd say, "Bitch, please," and laugh her out of the room.

pfffft are you kidding me? This cracks me up, oh Prince broke the guy's guitar.
If Prince ever played on MY instrument I'd be like: Prince rocked my shit & broke it!
Then I'd keep it just like it was forever!
I would have borrowed his guitar and did the same thing, then dared him to say something lol

Performed this way, I don't see a huge "quality" difference between the two songs. "Bambi" might be the better song in the end, but "Screwdriver" is the more "in your face" one. Certainly it's more punk and Prince handles that approach a lot better than those faux-punk acts like Green Day, Avril Lavigne or whomever they might actually let in TV these days.
There's already plenty of "old song - great / new song - bad" responses on this thread. They seem almost automated by this point. We could just as well have a bot that posts them to each thread that is about a new performance, a tour and so on.

It's not powerfull enough. Screwdriver provided a lot of attitude, and I actually enjoyed it a lot as he used his voice in new pinkish ways. |

Well i missed last nights performance but i got on the okplayer website and checked out the video.
Personally i thought the performance was pretty damn good. The girls were a little off in places but overall i thought it was a rockin performance.
A couple things.
Someone mentioned the guitar player sounding kinda off on her bends and i have to agree. I liked the bass player and the drummer sounds pretty decent. I think with a little more rehearsing this band can gel into something tight and hard rockin. I'm curious to see what Prince And The Girls could do with some of the songs from the Prince, Dirty Mind, Controversy and Purple Rain albums.
As far as Prince's performance. I thought his solo on bambi rocked and overall his singing was good. Singing in a falsetto has to be hard on the vocal cords so i thought he sounded a little better on screwdriver than bambi.
It seems a few people don't think much of the new band, some of the new songs or the jimmy performance and that's OK. People like what they like. We should all know by now that Prince does what he wants so its utterly useless to spend time wondering why he does or doesn't do certain things.
P.S Prince looks like he's gaining weight. His face looks fuller.

It's the afro....I notice that in my own face. When i let my hair grow out, my face appears heavier.
When I trim up the sides, it appears thinner. Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind. |

Wow, Prince really brought the house down, loved his performance..could have done without the obligatory Guitar wrecking at the end, but that's Prince for ya
I just regret that I tried sitting through the whole show..maybe my german ass just doesn't "get" Jimmy Fallon, but damn, that was one unfunny Late Night show...I might add that this is coming from a big Conan fan. |

Like mentioned in the other thread (by me and and another orger) he didn't necessarily intend to break the guitar.
It looks like he tried to throw it to someone standing in the audience like he usually does. The cable wasn't long enough, so the guitar got pulled back mid-air and ended up on the floor. |

You think Prince's performance sucked? It rocked! Now, that lame-ass youtube video did indeed suck. Hilarious.
I think if Kirk really is pissed then Prince needs to make it up to him. It would be a dick move not to. But, I have no idea how much of this drama is real and how much is just to get people talking so, I'm not gonna worry about it one way or another. What I do know is that it was cool to watch, expecting it to be caught as usual but instead seeing it crash to the stage, and then Fallon and the rest reacting to the act and to the sustained sound that resulted from it. Priceless.
Getting all butt-hurt mad at Prince on Kirk's behalf is just silly, no?
