kitkatb said:

he says it after the lyric.... "ur sheer perfection"....
and on the track he or some1 says "thank-u."..

but as everything is a fun ride with P at his concerts he adds and says things... he is human u know...lol .
and we make jokes all the time.... only with P is it really a fun wisecrack?

we never know..... i've done lots of things whilst i was looking in the mirror..... but i may not have been necessarily looking in the mirror at myself!



go enjoy....

lol true.. it was a vh1 thing.. cause it had the little logo in the corner lol..
i'd love to hear more of him and his accoustic purple guitar!

It was the Art of Musicology on MTV/VH1 back in 2004 when he was drumming up interest in the Musicology tour

vivid said:

oh ok.. thanks..
so it is just those 3/4 songs he did or is there more?

kitkatb said:

It was a 30 minute programme. First of all there was a look back at each year of his career along with celebrities saying how wonderful he is (like hall of fame but much better), then Prince and the band did Musicology and Dear Mr Man. After the break was the acoustic set which included Cream, ICNTTPOYM, Sweet Thing and Sometimes it snows.

I recently taped over it by accident!

kitkatb said:

It's a great show. I watched it on MTV or VH-1.

And I love that part!

What else did he play on that special?

The live performance of Dear Mr. Man is the one that appears on the Cinnamon Girl CD single - and it was performed at Webster Hall, NYC.

In fact that reminds me that a great orger kindly sent me a dvd of the performance recorded on the TV in the US. I don't remember his org name, but his real name is Bobby and comes from Sylmar CA. What a star.

Listed above.

Not quite correct.....the track list is as follows:

Musicology
Dear Mr. Man
(commercial break)
Cream
I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man
Sweet Thing
Proud Mary interlude
Sometimes It Snows In April

Admittedly the Proud Mary bit lasted 45 seconds - but it all counts

yeah this mini set is absolutely amazing

would love for him to do a proper acoustic set one day - 7 hours long (or thereabouts)
