Can somebody tell me what the original version is of the first song on the new site (crimson and....)? Thanx FraFra Obviously you skipped my review . . . . . Tommy James and the Shondells (1968) Still a better version than Prince's I actually like Prince's better. However, I never cared for the "Creep" cover he did...  -you ain't funky at all, you just a little ol' prude! | |

I dont think the purple rain image is anything other than a metaphor for watching videos the tv is obviously going to be the click through or represents the future click thru for watching videos. the pyramids are interesting tho i think we are seeing a more mystical era with prince again he seems to be leaving the hard core zealous jw stuff behind, musically at least and the imagery is opposed to that religion. He seems to be referring back to his earlier yearning towards eygpt and GOLD plus the choice of title for the album and site is interesting, thats following his idea with 3121 to name the site after the album. i am confused however by him using mplsound.com to load the songs then retract the site very odd. and to have a facebook group called that which notified us of the songs etc. it appeared almost as tho he launched it himself and then decided to get a couple of web designers to knock up a flash image and relaunch the site under its new name or perhaps the name of the second album and yet the songs from mplsound are playing on lotusflow3r. or he liked the imagery and renamed it - i dont know its all very, very ..uuummm.. well - Prince. oh yes i forgot to add that the images to me appear to be a representation of 'time' which is also odd for our recent prince who openly rejected time and its passing. the two stones are possibly the two tablets of the ten commandments, you also have two pyramids, marking a moment in time of the world and the city scape is to represent the modern world. the stones could also be the designers idea and a representation of the beginning of the earth. its interesting he's still using his image as a deity figure given hes a jw. i get a feel that maybe prince has finally moved on from his bad karma days and is entering a more fulfilled era - shit i sound like a tarot reader lol [Edited 1/6/09 4:19am] [Edited 1/6/09 4:24am] can u do a tarot reading for me today..i feel kinda messed up... i feel that you will be drawn to a new place: one of mystery and devotion where you can play in the sunshine of its melodies and memories and feel at peace once more, i just cant tell you exactly when!  walk with crooked shoes www.myspace/syblepurplelishous | |

Hello Rosalita!
As for the city view, well not being from the US, sometimes it all looks the same to me:) But there are definitely buildings in Boston that look exactly the same, and when I enter/exit the city by car, that's exactly the kind of city view you get. Rosalita said: Flo6 said: Looks like Boston to me:)

Do you think it is Boston???
I know it's Minneapolis on the right side fo sho.... [Edited 1/5/09 21:15pm] | |

I would really like to know what he has planned for this site. I like the new tracks so I'm looking forward to this.
What's really interesting me is the skyline, though. Prince often has hidden meanings in the artwork, so maybe the city is supposed to tell us something. So, does anyone know which city it is? | |

Some have said that Prince has inserted a pic of Minneapolis' buildings. 
I can't see them. Princey forgot or doesn't know how to create a site with scroll bars? Not everybody has a screen the size of his.  | |

wow, I feel honored, and perhaps a little creeped out you have to lash out your anger towards someone who doesn't feel the same away about the music that you obviously enjoy. It is both sad and interesting. What I dislike, and appreciate in music must be entirely on a different level than you. It is stated very well on this site. This is a discussion forum. I will keep giving negative comments towards the music if it sucks. Don't worry about that my friend. I find you purple kool aid drinkers hilarious and it frankly makes me laugh out loud to see you get so damn choked up over someone else feeling so differently than you. Now, get back in your stable and don't come out till we tell you to.
Oops I have upset you. really sorry about that. I'm (like you) far from enjoying everything prince does : I hate PE, Musicology, found 60% of 3121 pretty decent and loved TRC. But contrary to you I do not piss on someone I have appreciated so much for the last 25 years just because his last outputs are not as good as his past work. You act like if only your opinion and taste mattered in a very arrogant way. If you think a tune sucks then it surely sucks for real, doesn't it ! I know you're looking forward to invading each thread with your negative reviews of next Prince's outputs but do not get too frustrated, the music will be available soon and I'm sure you'll be delighted to piss on nearly everything. wow.. seriously?
Honestly, if you think this is upsetting me. The sad fact is, I have no clue as to who you are.. and for you to remotely remember one of my posts, I am willing to give you more blunt and honest remarks. and you are right my friend, odds are i will only like a few tracks, but I still support him and will take my few tracks with me.. and I will voice when he scrapes shit on the plate... I am more ready to hear the new music than ever now  You kids who get so offensive about hearing that Prince is capable of making a shitty track just astound me by your posts.. keep going!![Edited 1/6/09 9:28am] | |

As 4 "the rock of gibraltar", if u know anything about travel to the Mediterranean/Spain/ Morocco as does Prince and Mayte and many of us on this site, u would not dare question The Rock of Gibraltar. For knowledge sake....google a pic of the Minn. skyline as well as " The Rock of Gibraltar". Enough of this nonsense. This is elementary stuff,,,no one should have 2 take there precious time repeating a skyline that they see everyday to some folks that are determined to make it NY, Chicago, or wherever....It is what it is Minneapolis and The Rock of Gibraltar period!!!! yes, I'm taking this one personal 4 Prince's sake!!!! It's the city he was born in as well as a place he holds dear in his heart (Spain/Morocco...The Rock of G) imo. Lemme | |

I don't think it's going to go down like that, at least I hope it doesn't. I just can't picture there being forums on that board. If Prince is a smart cookie, which I have to wonder about sometimes, he won't have forums on the new site. Who knows, he might shut me up. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

Hey, don't make that face, you could be right. I remember not too long ago that Prince had mentioned 'Another Big City residency' so it could be a hint, you never know. And he does seem to have hidden meanings in his artwork (I remember people mentioning some of the artwork on the covers revealed something later on - such as before The Revolution came on board, the previous album he had something referring to them). With that said, I'm just guessing that he's gonna set up in some big city. (I'm totally speculating... so don't quote me, okay!!! ) | |
