Congrats 2 Wendy & Lisa: Lisa Coleman and Wendy Melvoin collected an award for the theme and underscore for NBC's hit show, Heroes.
DISCLAIMER: My admiration and expression of the value of Wendy and Lisa's contributions to Prince is in no way intended to diminish, demean, or defame the talents of Prince in any way whatsoever. Nor is said admiration intended to diminish or ignore the influences of the countless other musicians who have also contributed to and/or collaborated with Prince throughout his extensive and illustrious career. Without question, I unapologetically identify as a fam, and believe Prince genius.
"a big Thank you to Prince, the cosmos, the fans, the crew, and fellow dreamers... for a notherly DREAM COME TRUE! after 20 years we took that stage with Prince and Sheila E at the BRIT awards in London this last wed Feb 15! We have been wanting to do something together....waiting for an excuse but not sure of how to showcase it or what kind of venue to play or what songs to do or how to present it....and then....THIS came up!

"LISA, I'm gonna give u the BRUSH, and u're gonna paint the side of the train..."
"How did we ever lose each other's sound?"
L.A. Times on the 2007 Grammys: With a host of performers skilled in delivering Big Effects, the evening regularly delivered top-grade professional pop music, though it was rarely thrilling in a way that made you reconsider your life. Nothing as heart-poundingly arresting as Prince's Super Bowl performance the week before. |
