Is it just my imagination or has there recently been an overload of Prince previously unreleased leaks. Just found Uh Huh, Poor Little Bastard and Leaving for New York, as well as a few more. Definitely not complaining,but thinking they might be being leaked as a tease for complilation that might be forth coming. Just my humble opinion.

I have no idea whether something big coming, and there have been quite a few leaks the last few weeks (studio and live)--but the three titles you list have been out in some form for a very long time (although if there are new ones, I'd love to hear them). What has definitely changed is that people are getting away with posting unreleased (as well as released) material in very public places. I doubt that will last forever, but for now almost everyone has access to a lot of stuff that was a bit harder to find than before.

There's nothing coming out anytime soon, meaning at least 8 or 9 months, I would bet. Spring at the earliest.

These have been out for a long while, btw.

Thanks so much for replying. I had not found these before and it was a delight to find them. I agree that it will not last forever.

Glad you found these. The good thing is, if you're only just discovering these, then there may be a hundred more songs which have been circulating for a long time and you have yet to discover .

I feel like a kid locked inside a candy store. I'm "P binging" like I'm a damned teenager. It's ridiculous. My adult children walk past me with my headphones on and just shake thier collective heads.

My 2 five year old granddaughters now do the chant and hand sign to P doing Something in the Water Does Not Compute live and they try to replicate P's scream from EndorphineMachine.

I probably need a 12 step program before my brain melts, but I can't stop myself.

Glad it's not just me. I feel kinda guilty that I have no further interest in any more tributes. I don't want to hear anyone else sing P's songs. I'm not angry at the tributes or anythng. I'm sure they mean well, but I only want to hear him sing his songs.

Watching his live performances and movies and interviews and stuff in my own order and by my own whim of what I need at any given moment allows me to stay in my safe lil sparkly purple bubble where P is still sexy and talented and flawed but April212016 never happened.

Call me crazy, but denial really is a purple river that surrounds the PP in my heart and makes me smile.
