Wow. That was incredible to hear. She looks visibly moved towards the end of that video montage. "Had to get off the boat so I could walk on water..." | |

somebody better capture the audio. I don't have X, so I'll just have to wait until it starts doing the rounds.

Here I was, blown away at the 1 minute 30 seconds of it she posted on Instagram, just to learn she posted that longer snippet on the social previously known as Twitter! Screaming. Panting. Making Noise. | |

I think it's interesting that he tried to keep it as close to the original as possible when converting to Vicki Waiting, even parts that might have been considered throwaway, like "uh-huh, uh-huh..." | |

One notable difference (if I'm hearing it right):
Vicki Waiting: "Until then, she's held at bay by my animal-like persistence" Anna Waiting: "Until then, I'm held at bay by my Anna's persistence" [Edited 4/22/24 9:21am] "Had to get off the boat so I could walk on water..." | |

I wonder if there's another version in the Vault because NS claimed in 2005 that it was New York in this thread: https://prince.org/msg/7/128429 | |

This is fascinating. I've always said Prince was an expert at recycling himself (reworking old songs, sampling himself, using single tracks from the multitracks for a new song, etc.). Witnessing him going through that process, from "Anna Waiting" to "Vicki Waiting" is fantastic (pun intended). | |

[Edited 4/23/24 0:55am] I agree about the vocals on Anna Waiting. I feel there's more passion in them. I also think the way the guitar is mixed gives it more power. [Edited 4/23/24 9:56am] Something BIG Is Coming. | |

we all need 2 b friends" | |
