Live8 - 15mins of prince!

Which track would U of chosen if prince would have performed there?

1. Avalanche
2. Love we make
3. The truth


I think that would of been off the hook, starts off with mellowed out piano, into amazing amazing guitar work!!

What song would U of chosen 4 just a 15min play list!?

1. The Truth
2. Dear Mr. Man
3. Everywhere ("we've got some work to do everywhere")

if he did "avalanche" he'd have to take out that line about Lincoln disbelief
but "the truth" and "the love we make" are both good choices!

Ok, The only reason I choose Avalanche was because not only the lyrics are powerful, but the music is too, and i needed sumthing to link in with the piano from "love we make"

Your choices are cool, but I've never heard our mad sing everywhere live, and couldn't imagine what it would be like hmmm

Besides the lyrics, that's another one of the reasons why I picked it... I think he'd be very creative with it. Maybe even make some kind of stage spectacle to go along with it? biggrin

I was disappointed that he wasn't there but I think it would've been cool if he'd jammed with Stevie and then ended the set with a duet of Sign O'The Times.

1. Hello
2. White Mansion
3. Fascination

OR.....

Prince performs. He comes out with the Revolution.

1. It's Gonna Be A Beautiful Night

And the end of the song he sings:

We're against hungry children
Our record stands tall
There's just as much hunger here at home

We'll do what we can
If y'all try and understand
A flower that has water will grow
And the child misunderstood will go

Hello
Hello
Hello
Hello

Speaks: "We'd like to thank Bob Geldof for inviting us here. We understand Bob doesn't like Mondays. I don't know about you but I love Mondays...2, 3 4

2. Manic Monday (Prince and Wendy sharing lead vocals.)

3. America (with Shelia E. on percussion.)

Wrecking stuff at the end. Kicking over drums. Guitars flying. False endings... Confusion!

Hey, I can dream, can't I?

1. Sign "O" the Times
2. Dear Mr. Man
3. The Cross

By the way why didn't he, Bowie, the Boss or Oasis do it? Any of them would've been miles better than what we got.

On second thoughts I think I'd put My name is Prince in instead of Sign. Not a great song or anything but I think it'd suit the occassion and we have enough seriousness in already.

1. Shhh
2. Do Me Baby
3. Scandalous
4. Erotic City

Seriously though, I think the obvious choice is "Dear Mr. Man".

He should have blown their minds with:
1. Sign of the times
2. 4the tears in your eyes
3. Purple rain

Not the most upbeat playlist, but making the point perfectly.
