Looks like DMSR was right,the song "She Loves Me 4 Me" is being added to radio playlists.I heard it on a local jazz station (102.9 KBLX for those of you who live in the Bay Area).It felt so good to finally hear a NEW Prince song on the radio for a change!!

WAY cool! 8)

ooo how nice 2 know Prince made a conscious decision that involves reaching the general public ...

u know its been very long since i've flipped 2 a radio station and got a tingly spine ... perhaps i'll catch 'she loves me 4 me' as u did one of these days and my longing 4 radio will b resurrected its a good day ... radio rebounds

Alright, and the next single from TRC to hit the radio will be...1+1+1 is 3 Probably not,but it is kickin'.

did they announce it as the new single from prince, maybe they just wanted to play a new cut. a friend of mine heard 'the everlasting now' on radio a while back. it was played on this evangelic broadcasting station, or something. NOW they listen..

The DJ was very enthusiastic about the song.What's funny is,back in 1994 I wrote this station a lengthy letter,asking why they never play Prince's songs.KBLX is a jazzy "Quiet Storm" station,and I felt that many of Prince's jazzier numbers (like "The Ballad of Dorothy Parker") would fit their format perfectly.They wrote me back,explaining that Prince was "too controversial" for their listeners! After all this time,it looks like they FINALLY agree with me...lol...

You're just always ahead of the curve, David.

DavidEYE!!! You're the first person I thought of tonight when I TOO heard She Loves Me 4 Me on the radio!!! I was gonna start a thread about it but here you are, beating me to the punch!

I'm getting in the car, about to go buy some of that damn Vanilla Coke they keep advertising (yes, I'd fallen into the consumer trap & wanted it BAD) & I'm just about to put in my ONA cd when something tells me to flip around the channels on the radio. KNOWING there's nothing playing that's as good as ONA, I figure I'll do it for the hell of it. And then... BOOM!

this one I can tell all my secrets to
I don't need to make her swear, she would never tell anyhoo



That made my night - hearing something GOOD on the radio for a change! Put me in a good mood... until I found out all the Vanilla Coke was sold out! :X

Thanks for sharing, David! I thought I was the only one appreciating that little bit of sunshine!

Prince...are you hearing this? She loves me 4 me should be a single...it's a great track


Bring it on!

If hearing a song on the radio makes your night, you're in serious trouble.

Prince...are you hearing this? She loves me 4 me should be a single...it's a great track


Bring it on!

I'm tellin you guys,Prince CAN get back on the radio again.It just takes a great song and a little work,which he clearly did this time around.

Prince has had better songs than She Loves Me for Me since his better days on the radio & they were never played. I smell payola. Now you know where your Celebration dollars are going!

"She Loves Me 4 Me" has been added to around 15 or so Urban AC stations(out of about 40) in the past week or so...didn't know it got added to one up in the bay area, though...I wonder if sales of TRC will jump up to any significant number now???

I'm sure it will get added to another of our local stations (KISS-FM,98.1).Several of their DJs (Morris Knight and St.Regis in particular) are huge Prince fans.Have you heard it in your area yet?

u remind me of that dude in Monster's Ball.

Oh! I gotta tune in to some radio stations and catch it somehow, what a momento! Matter fact, I'm gonna go play it on my CD right now...

"She Loves Me 4 Me" was the song I added 2 my own compilation disc that I burned the other day...

I love the groove and the lyrics. I would love 2 turn on the radio and hear it playing...nice 2 know some stations r picking up on their latest Prince!

As always, thanks 4 the info DavidEye!

IrishEcho said:

Deal with it.

I don't listen to KBLX as much as I used to but after hearing this news I'm gonna call and thank them . . . .

IrishEcho said:

Suck it, Irish.

This is great news!

I will call my local jazz station [CD101.9 in NY] and make the request.
We've been listening to that blasted station in the office for a few days now, and I'm getting sick of listening to Kool & The Gang's "Summertime" over & over.

So many more of his songs are so much better than She loves me for me. Too bad they didn't play something better.

She loves me for me is a weak song!
Just my opinion.

Deal with what, moron? I didn't go to the silly Celebration.

CalhounSq said:

Are you propositioning me, dear? Sorry, but I'm not interested, based on the amount of anti-bacterial cream intimacy with you would require.

IrishEcho said:

Irish, your negative and abusive comments only serve to irritate everyone else. Why bother with them? Do you want to feel that your only 'value' to this site is that of being an annoyance? Is this how you enjoy spending your time, pissing people off whilst saying little of any value

gubbins4ever said:

Do you really think you come off as intelligent using "whilst" right after writing about how I've "pissed people off?" I have every right to express my opinion & if CalhounSq has something negative to say about me, don't dare tell me I am wrong to reply in kind. I don't share your opinion of my "value" to this site. I'm just a visitor, like anyone else. No more or less annoying than any other idiot like you.

I bet you think you said some cool shit w/ this one, huh?
