Top of the Pops report

Just caught our funky little man on ToTP, in his first performance on the show since "The Holy River" (I think?)



The only problem with prince being so damn cool, is that everytime he appears on a TV show they keep his performance for the grand finale, and I gotta sit through tons of shit before I can see him smile



Anyway the man looked great in a sparkly gold bodysuit, and his hair very long (GB days style, except brown and with some gold glitter) and a big hoop earring.



The band was pretty tight, but prince was playing a lot less guitar than on the TFI Friday appearance, save for a ripping guitar solo on his blue cloud guitar, and the horns and background guitars were more pedestrian (if you know what I mean). All in all a more lazy and restrained performance in my opinion. He got the lyrics right this time though smile



Annoyingly as always, the show showed his name onscreen as THE ARTIST - BABY KNOWS instead of using the prince font. How hard can it be dammit.
