It's not better than what Prince has released,but it's better than 99.9% of the shit that is being sold as music today.

Love the song.

Apparently, I read better than you, hear better too!

Just like you like to "voice your opinion", others do also. This board may say Prince.org but it does not belong to Prince! So everything said here does not have to conform to what you like or deem as appropriate.

I stand corrected. A 5-page thread.

muleFunk said:

U mean anything post 1989 that Prince has released? or just the most recent album?

Because this song and a lot of the other on their new can blew out lyrically and musically a good number of songs by Prince (in my opinion even more so the songs Prince made that sound like every other RnB artist of the 90's)

And I agree better than 99.9% of what is released regularly today

Yeah it is, a different video would make the song more listenable for those who say it isn't good, They are mostly looking at the visuals

But I appreciate what this is, a video collage of musical fans who enjoy their music

good song. the vid is wasted.

Wendy & Lisa's song from the new album Balloon just grips me on the inside and washes over me, similar feel I got when I first heard Power Fantastic

I'm not crazy about the song or the video. But whatever..

love the song, like the video


What makes the vid cool for me is that I kinda sorta know some of the people in it.

Cool, but this song proves to me Prince doesnt need/have/should. to collaborate with them

Hey, I like the big-ass header on the front page. Just noticed it. Cool.

i think it's very cool that they let fans be in their video, why everyone is complaining is beyond me?

7salles said:

That makes not sense
collaborate is collaborate
It's not NEED
It's no different that why W&L have these people in this video
friends do stuff with friends
its why Sheila E still backs him

OldFriends4Sale said:

Well it makes sense to me, i don´t like their new song and i dont think they would contribute to Prince´s sound in a good way. So i said "proves to me" so it does makes sense to me and what you said don´t apply.

Iloved it and I love the MC5. Grew up listening to them since my friends dad played every now and then in the group! Finally a shout out! Detroit!

I love the song and the video. Yay for Herman and Maddy!!!

How come no one said the song sucked ass when they posted about the open contest for the fans? If they thought it sucked then and said so then it'd be okay but all Wendy and Lisa got was kudos and thanks from the fans. I can understand someone not liking the song but to trash a tribute to the fans is the real double standard on here. Stop asking for more fan intera ction with the artist anfd then complaining about the results. not speaking to you personally but in general terms to orgers who bash Prince and others for not dealing with their fanbase.

kimrachell said:

Yeah. All you ever hear on here is how Prince hates his fans and how Wendy and Lisa love their fans. Nice way to show yourselves worthy of that love. If you all felt the video sucked then maybe you should have submitted something for it and made it better.

I was to stoned and lazy to send something in.
Wish I did.
Was very cool.

boy o boy Anx...you n Wendy n Lisa are pretty tight, arent't you!

i'm glad that fans were in it.

BlackAdder7 said:

not tight enough for them to include my interpretive dance performance in their video...and my eyebrows STILL haven't grown back completely after the fireball accident. that and a $65 silver unitard. all for nothing.

i like Wendy and Lisa but this song is very boring and awful
realy awful
so much Wendy Lisa asskiser on org

i am seck and tried of asskiser on org

The song is a fun and good song.

So is it ass kissing because someone likes it and you don't? What if you did like it, and someone called you ass kisser? Would that stand as valid too? It's always curious to me why people piss on Wendy and Lisa. They've had 100x the interaction with their fans that Prince ever hoped to have. But then again, it's not a contest. Amazing how people loved them in the Revolution and talked about the "color" they brought to Prince's music in 2 short years. Yet the minute they're out of the band and on their own and not dressed in silk pajamas and doing choreography while trying to do a solo and making their own music, then they're just shit, and shit worthy. There was room for them in the band, but somehow not room for them now that they're on their own for the past 23 years. How hypocritical and ungrateful.

Prince only wishes he was that fucking cool about shit, that inventive and that thoughtful. Wendy and Lisa never asked for $77 in the middle of a recession to buy an album twice (most people did buy a physical copy too). Wendy and Lisa never offered "lifetime memberships", then canceled it on a whim. Wendy and Lisa didn't promise a dozen albums that were aborted. Wendy and Lisa doesn't sue their fans. But they're SO horrible.

No, they're not the end all and be all of music, but for anyone that's interacted with them, and heard them talk to had even a minor conversation with them knows those girls are smart, funny, and know their shiz. And they're NOT talking about chemical trails and conspiracy theories.
