Morris Day plays amazing drums on "New Power Generation" too. Listen to that drum groove, it's tight as fuck. It doesn't sound out of place when played in a mix with other NJS songs that have programmed drums so that shows you how tight his playing is.

How dare you say that Morris Day plays drums on that track!! You know that ain't so! Take it back! Morris is way too funky for any pathetic New Jack Swing rip!

.

And I don't care what the credits say. We all know credits lie!!!

.

I don't even think it's Morris on those "Time" tracks. That's just Prince with his voice distorted.

.

He's in the movie though... especially that hot pepper scene. Oh, that's funny! I just dubbed a copy of that scene 50 times in a row when the thing came out on VHS... would watch it all night long.

.

Yeah.

I thought Morris did the drums on Release It? Anyway, I think to be more specific, Prince maybe didn't lose it, but hit a huge snag with the New Power Generation Maxi, only because it included Brother With A Purpose. I'll take 11 Oobey Doop's over that bullshit.

It JUST DOESN"T MATTER!!

.

He didn't play those either!!

.

Good lord, people--stop trying to drag Morris Day down with Prince. He had almost nothing to do with Graffiti Bridge!

.

It's not his fault!!

A quick breather from the drama as I insert another Tick Tick Bang loving gif...

I do not understand what I'm seeing--I simply can't make it make sense. And when I try to look away from Prince, I'm left with the equally bizarre motions of eveyone else in the band. Even Michael B. is sort of freaking me out.

.

But notice--there ain't no Morris Day anywhere near this!!!

When in doubt, just remind yourself:

He doesn't play the drums on Release It for the good reason that the drums are a Tower Of Power sample.

He didn't lose it but oh man, that song... cheesiest theme song ever. DREADFUL.

They shoulda got their own cartoon based on that song alone though.



Totally agree with you on Graffiti Bridge. That song sounds like a children's romper room tv show song. This one of his songs I never listen to.
