And who the fuck would you be to talk to me like that?

I really don't like to brag about the discog but people popping-up on the org and talking shit to me like that when I break my ass for them for free, seriously? When u'll have done a tenth of the homework I did for the discography then you can come and maybe consider talking shit to me like that.

Till then, have the decency to show some respect, kiddo!

No, seriously!

I'd like to formally apologize for everyone even though I am personally above reproach.

Thanks for all the great work.

yeahthat Your work is greatly appreciated and your attention to detail is impeccable. Thanks, databank!!! thumbs up!

I do remember that quite a few 12 inches were previously available digitally in stores like iTunes and Google Play. Certainly Let's Go Crazy/Erotic City, I know because I bought that one, but I think I remember God also being available, can anyone confirm this?

Yeah I know I saw it came from them, but it's nonsense.

who gives a fuck what its called ..focusing on dumb shit..optium words here were "god instrumental in pristine quality"..not you though,,u focus on how they categorize it..

Exactly focusing on silly stuff😉 The extended Let's Go Crazy has been out of print for years and you never hear long version on the radio so this is cool. I have said a million times people want P's music get wide exposure but only if it is free on YouTube.

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?

U sure of that?

Nope, never heard it before. But it sure is there. It sounds a bit like the intro of a next song.

Another Lonely Christmas? I really don't know.

Are you refering to the track on The Hits / The B-Sides? If so, I'm not sure what it is you're talking about. I don't hear anything "new" here.

If you're referring to a physical copy of the single then you are correct, however as I stated in my previous post a digital version of the Let's Go Crazy/Erotic City 12 inch has been available to purchase in digital stores for a while now, and the extended version is available on Ultimate Prince (I don't know if that is in print though).

Yes, and iirc, they were Vinyl rips, not new digital copies.

Yeah, I'm not seeing 1/2 those titles when I pull up Tidal... One more reason to cancel before the free trial is up.

What's that disc called Chick Flicks? What Prince song is on it? When did it come out?

Erotic city on tidal has a little bit of zapp lie synth at the end that isn't on the actual vinyl. Anyone heard that before?

Whaaaaat?

U sure of that?

I don't have it. Same 3 minutes 56 seconds.

^ When Doves Cry (3:50)

40 classic songs from the greatest chick flicks ("2006 Warner Strategic Marketing International, a division of Warner Music International")

However there's 19 songs on the list only.. strange..

I guess its just some kind of "compilation album"?

Certainly got my attention...

For all of you "Tidal-ers" out there, a quick question: is this the only "out of print" and/or "former bootleg" Prince tune on Tidal or are there others?

God (instrumental) long version, this is freakin awesome.

To answer your question, yes, other out of print and not available material are on tidal. There's nothing that I've seen that only came out as a bootleg, but a lot of it was "bootlegged" so to speak.

Most interesting to me are the NPGMC only releases: Xpectation, C-NOTE, ONA piano (I believe is on tidal), The Slaughterhouse, and The Chocolate Invasion. None of those have been available officially since 2005 (or was it 2006?) when the website shutdown. These have née discussed in other threads, but I figured I'd respond to your question directly.

Someone needs to convince Prince to put the rest of the WB protege albums on there. Based on tweets a few weeks ago it seems he and Jill are friends again, so it'd be cool to get hers back in circulation.

Change it one more time..

I know very little about streaming, etc. By chance can you download them? Are they there to stay or will Prince take them down on a whim? I had no intention of even going to the website, but for the instrumental "God"...I'm there!

No, thedance but considering just about every single thing related to Prince is on the org seconds after it happens, I find it strange this took over ten days to get noticed..

Well, I am not in USA but I always login through a USA VPN. and it was there for me on the 8th September..

so its actually been there twelve days now..

Sorry, I thought this was old news..

I didn't see it on TIDAL yesterday... but I see it today...sobits not old newsbfir everyone. This is new to me. I don't k iw why my TIDAL is missing so much vs. screen caps I've seen. But I still don't have 3121 singles or té amo corazon or black sweat videos. I only have 4 vids... Baltimore, indifference, and studio and live PlectrumElectrum.

Only 6 singles...no diamonds and pearls stuff or 3121 stuff...what gives.

My Tidal page shows only about half of theose EPs. Is it because I'm on a free trial?
