I kind of am bummed that other media than Prince's own site seems to get the better of Prince's new music.

Did we not sell our souls to become part of the bleeding npg?

The site mentions Guitar. Not All Along Thw Watchtower/Best Of U

Hey there all you UK fams,

You know that Downloads are the future in the UK, lets all get downloading this tune and makes Prince number one in the Uk again!!!!

Who's with me come on!!! he he lol lol wink lol lol


I'm sure there are still criteria to be eligible, for one Prince may be giving this one away for free, which no doubt would contravene rules. Also, it is unlikely Prince's own website is included in however they do their data gathering.

the 2 songs that Howard Stern played on the radio this morning?? Covers of "All along the watchtower" and "Best of u" cool


It is a medley; All Along The Watchtower/Best of U (I am certain Prince U-dified the title)

And the addition of that first song just gives me negative JW vibes. Am I the only one?
[Edited 1/29/07 7:28am]


From the clip I've heard, it starts from the second verse:

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Bare-foot servants too, but huh
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl
Two riders were approachin
And the wind began to howl

Before it goes into the Foo Fighters lyrics. Apart from the Watchtower connotation, I don't see anything JW in the lyrics.

Just the word watchtower makes me suspicious.

Well, it is a mix of the Bob Dylan penned song made famous by Hendrix with a Foo Fighters song. It has a stadium-rock feel, a bit like the One Of Us cover on the Emancipation album but better.

Thanks Prince, can't wait to hear the new track! He knows that by calling the track "Guitar", it will get people AMPED!

Perhaps he will play it at the superbowl and get a number one from downloads!

Woah wait a minute, Prince is covering "Best Of You"??? That was totally unexpected, I can't wait to see what he does with the song.

Didn't he get a little pissy a few years ago when the Foo's did a cover of Darling Nikki? They also did a cover of Drive Me Wild which was kinda fun. At some of their live shows, they also attempted Purple Rain, but Dave has mentioned they could never get their cover of that song to come out right.

Not asking WHERE, just asking for clarification--

is the leaked file the Guitar song, or the Along the Watchtower/Best of U clip from Howard Stern?


I had the latter but then I went back to itunes to listen to it and it said the file path was gone. pout I went back to the website where I got it from and the file is not longer available.

C'est la vie...
The check. The string he dropped. The Mona Lisa. The musical notes taken out of a hat. The glass. The toy shotgun painting. The things he found. Therefore, everything seen–every object, that is, plus the process of looking at it–is a Duchamp.

Interesting. I bet a lot of people already have it in their minds what they want this song to sound like just from the title - living upto the potential hype that calling a new track 'guitar' leads to is inevitably going to be hard - let's hope it really does have some scorching guitar throughout and not subdued in the mix like Prince has been doing for a long-time now.

Another interesting thing is if this tracks is going to be completely open to anyone to download, that would mean 3121.com getting a lot of hits and I wouldn't be surprised if service was pretty slow on the day of the release.

Also, perhaps this will be a new song previewed at the Superbowl and Prince is pre-empting the demand for it?
[Edited 1/29/07 2:35am]


Yes, lets hope it lives up to it's "Title" unlike Fury did. But does anyone else find the song title a wee bit trite?
