I can't get over that background. I want it on my cell, my computer, AND my PSP. Hell, it would make fabulous art or a wall scroll. The best thing, of course, is the music. I'm grooving to Crimson and Clover right now....

You gonna have me screaming at 4 in the morning over here in Chi-town. THAT would be orgasmic if his first stop is here. Last time I saw him was when he dropped by and did One Nite Alone. GOD 2K9 would be FABU if Princey came here...

Things seem to be happenning very quickly. Seems like there is significant

developments almost every other day. Let's hope the flood gates are open and

stay open for a very long time.

If i recall correctly, he gave Guitar demo as a 192kbps (altho expensive for one song) in drm free.

Hope he will do the same (in 320kbps or VO) for the albums. I will purchase them if that is the case

Holy crap, did Prince actually hire a real graphic artist for once?

Does anyone else see Prince opening the Grammy Awards with "Crimson and Clover"?

or a performance of it some time during the broadcast.

'Buy concert tickets...' oooohhh sooo exciting!!

Can't see him coming to the UK though. I'm planning a trip to New York this year so think I'll wait to see what happens here first.

Cool Looking forward 2 see what it will reveal 4 us.

Maybe a little better, but I see this more as standard Prince gaudy.
More like a continuation of the “Graffiti Bridge” type of tacky art, than the professional graphic art standards seen in basic products today.

Ooh, just seen this, I love it! I knew there was a plan!! I love the Purple Rain screen clip on the old fashioned tv in the bottom left corner, brilliant!! At last! I'll go back and read the thread now.... Excited!

An entirely new galaxy awaits.....

1. Dumb URL. Title tag hasn't been filled in. Site is actually a frame that points to an IP-hosted site (http://72.2.117.152/)

http://dndetails.com/lotusflow3r.com
http://dndetails.com/72.2.117.152

Of course, none of his previous sites link to the new site.

2. Ugly. Seriously, where does he get these incompetent designers from? Amazing how he used to attract such talent in the 1980s, yet now he's stuck with these amateurs.

3. Does Prince know that "Crimson & Clover" is about a guy wanting to deflower a girl? Then again, he does also include lines from Foxy Lady and Wild Thing...

Donjuandeblacko said:

Yes, it would be nice if it had most/all of his old videos in qreat quality!

I think the site is well-designed and looks promising!

BartVanHemelen said:

This is el cheapo web design and graphics.
The sad thing is this will probably be THE cover to his new album.
His album art was so great once becuase he had one of the best marketing teams in the world in the WB art dept, who would recruit the worlds top artists. And I'm pretty sure they could turn the "I want clear lucite pyramids with a space backround" ideas Prince would propose and come up with something a little more sophisticated.

Oh, be quiet.

BartVanHemelen said:

definitely the MPLS in the background...
looking 4ward 2 his new CDs...
we will just have 2 wait and see...

Looks good. Maybe soon we will get a shed load of new material. That vault has to be opened sometime soon!

I dig the site design, too, LadyLuvSexxy, although not everyone agrees us...

LadyLuvSexxy said:

Finally.

Do anyone know what date this site becomes live????

Ugot2shakesumthin said:

SHUDDUP ALREADY DAMN!!

Cant we just be happy there is a new website with new music and new tour teasers!!

FFS! No pleasing some fans!

xperience319 said:

but you must admit. it looks like it was designed by a 5th grader. very unprofessional lookin for a top act like prince.
most of u will just take anything he does and call it great,if Beyonce came out with a site that looked this cheap yall would be all over her!

Donjuandeblacko said:

YES it does but im more interested in the content of the site than its appearance.

I think it serves its purpose as a TEASER PAGE.

Why cant we reserve judgment until the site actually, you know, opens?
