The Plan is still in effect

How Prince’s letter, in which Prince blames himself for the beating he received, will affect the case is a matter of speculation, as is why Prince assigned blame to himself.

Read the rules of the org. You can discuss the songs all day and night, but they don't allow you to post videos, links, etc. to anything Prince-related. This is thanks to the Prince Fans United (or PFU) coalition that started a few years ago.

There was a time, that instead of saying how "dated" new Prince music sounds, People would say he was ahead of his time, he was definitely in his own zone right here, that's one awesome song.
Nothing "dated" here. Prince was once able to mandate the space and time a song lived in.
ferociously rediculous fo sure

That's true. I didn't like this song when it first came out. Then, a few years later, a lot of "mysterious" sounding songs started coming out.

MidasTouch	you know...I loved Days like This. I want to listen to it now to see if I still do... Also, I love her version of Joan Armatrading's Love and Afeection.

Underrated vocalist for sure. Love her voice. "Almost Over You" is a fave, as is "I Wouldn't Beg for Water." "One Weekend In Paris" is an overlooked gem.

Her non-hits aren't bad either.

ETERNTY is also an unappreciated Prince composition.
I like the work Prince was sending her way. Not radio or kid friendly, but strong artistic pieces imo.

I knew about this, I didn't know there was a video. I like Chaka's version WAY better...Sheena's seems too "white" for me, well, compared to the other version.

SoulAlive	Her 'Lover In Me' album is excellent.....one of the best late-80s pop/R&B/dance albums.LA and Babyface contributed some of their finest songs to this album.I always felt that "One Love" is one of the strongest tracks and should have been the second single (instead of the less interesting "Days Like This").

"Strut" is my alltime favorite of Sheena Easton's songs. I remember Sally Jessy Raphael doing a show on hookers. At the front of the show, they played a video of Sally out of the ho stroll with the rest of the hookers. Sally had on her high heels and satin spandex pants right along with them and they were walking back and forth at the street corner. "Strut" was playing during the clip and those whores were struttin' dammitt. lol

I also like:

Sugar Walls
No Deposit, No Return
The Lover In Me
Morning Train

There's also another one I like that Prince wrote from her "The Lover In Me" album. I can't think of the name of it but I think it's called "100%" or "99%" or something. It's on the old cassette that I haven't played in years.

Andy has spoken dammitt.
