prince should cover pink....inspired thread.How would you KILL his career?

Okay bit bored at work.

Nothing much happening in the world of search and rescue today soooooo inspired by some dude wishing prince would cover pink how would you kill his career?

by kill i mean kill for us lot...throoughout his career prince has nearly always been integral to his music so how about reversing that for a quick buck?

(oooh cant wait for the "change your name to a symbol" etc)

How about an album ala rave but with indeed covers of Pink maybe even a duet with justin bieber.

selling his songs for adverts.....kiss for mentos?

a judge on america's got talent (but being all pious and spouting jehovah) wearing a purple trenchcoat?

any ideas?

I think he should change his name to an unpronounceable symbol smile

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

Nah, he should have an all-girl group and play teen guitar pop. Covering a Pink tune might come naturally after that. Hell, she had the nerve to cover Bohemian Rhapsody in concert...

I'm starting to have visions of Prince covering Funhouse and calling it Funky House.
To tell you the truth, I actually kinda like P!nk...

I like Pink too, and I think there are much more worse acts Prince could cover then her, surely the whole musical experience is about diversity and experimentation, otherwise it just becomes boring and mundane.

• Possible ways of killing his career;-
no longer recording, being in public life, withdrawing all music from distribution - total blackout on everything he has ever released!

• Start performing with the Wiggles, you know a ding for the mums out there - Sexy MF

At this stage in the game, could Prince really kill off his career, other that by not producing anything new? Would he really be able to alienate all his fans and contribution to music? I mean in the end MJ survived his accusations and the innuendo that surrounded his life.

Wait till all the downloading of the 3rdeyegirl.com songs slows to a halt and then release them as a "free" album attached to a newspaper.

Just being charged was enough to kill his career, but dying seems to be the best thing anyone can do to resurrect a career.

I don't understand how a man who can be so inventive sonically, can be as inept as he is with his internet presence. Prince can take some narrow minded, ignorant stances on occasion, but he is an obscenely intelligent and driven man. It dont add up. And when it don't add up, I say it equals a mental disorder.

^He's been in the pop life for 35 years and made millions of dollars. That doesn't sound like an idiot to me.

Prince does adverts for a big car company.

Imagine it, the car pulls in to view with the window down as Prince sings "i love you baby, but not like i love my new car..."

lol

I would love to see Pink remake something that Brenda Bennett sang like "A Million Miles (I Love You)" or "Some Kind of Lover".

I've got to give the guy credit where it's due. He's already done way more than a few things that would have killed, buried and salted the earth of mere mortal musical careers. lol
