Clarification on "When Will We Be Paid"

I just read the FIVE reports of Fridays show and each one of them was wrong.
Each report said that "When Will We Be Paid" was a new song by Prince.



I am sorry, but this is an old old song. It's an old Staples Singers Song. He has
performed it three times in the last year along including once when Mavis was at Paisley.



Check out the cddb link if you don't believe me:

Even Jim Walsh wrote it was a new song. Doesn't anyone have any musical knowledge.


Update: PiePie1976 (piepie1976@yahoo.com) adds:



Regarding the song "When Will We Be Paid...", Prince CLEARLY SAID at the
concert that "We wrote a song about it...". "It" being the topic of
conversation he was engaged in with the crowd. Prince CLEARLY SAID "We
wrote..."!!!!
