Septimo '99

Is it just me, or does anyone think that Prince may have taken something before this show? He acts completely out of character, and seems to struggle to keep his eyes open at times. His dance moves are way off, and he seems strangely distant.

Obviously this is merely speculation, but i think it's plain to see that something is amiss with prince in this show.....
with love, sincerity and deepest care.....

I think Septimo is a BRILLIANT performance, especially Motherless Child, he looks Ok to me!! The only thing I can think of is that he and Mayte were breaking up around this time, but apart from that nothing amiss.... cool

Agreed!!, I've only seen this once before it was ripped from the internet but Motherless Child is amazing!!!, I was blown away, ahh Prince was just 'in the zone' I'm sure and not on anything, and Larry Graham??? due respect. Hope I get to see it again, send me an orgnote if u can help wink wink wink

angry? I don´t think so,he even invited the audience to come up to the stage and the final was a big party with including the audience.
but i heard there were troubles after the show ,because the venue should have been used for a talk show but the prince equipment was still there.
does anybody know something about this ?

The dancing is a little odd on this performance...it's kind of like 'the wooden leg' but with his good leg nailed to the floor!

I thought he was just being playful though! you can hear the band laughing when he does it!

quite a few of the performances from this time are unique to this time period of Prince IMO - theres a lot of attitude (In a good way!) the music is so tight, and everyone in the band seem to be having Epileptic Dalcroze Eurhythmic Fits!

The version of motherless child is a jaw dropping gem....really emotive

i think that he is really feeling it. esp 'motherless child'. he is def directing that at someone he is unhappy with.

i don't think he looks like he is on something.

No. He didn't take something, he's just feeling that song. Prince was a child without a mom's comfort for a Long time. I treasure his performance of that song! nod

He was angry (problems with the sound and the TV staff, specially with Mr.Bosé) and he put all his rage on that performance... There are already several threads talking about this issue...
