I doubt this will happen. There's not nearly enough hype for this record.

And even if it does go number one, that's no good for us cuz it'll tell Prince to keep making luke warm albums...not like that'll stop him anyway.


But what else is out..."High School Musical" will remain at the top? It has the most hype of any new release....It has commiercals, videos, etc (not many personal promotions, thank you very much, Prince).



We'll see when it hits the stores.

yeah the bouus song... it was leaked.. it is a duet with Larry Grahm... here are the lyrics:

have heard it...it is a duet between Prince and Larry Gram

it goes like this:


Prince:
I never thought my life could be
Anything but catastrophe
But suddenly I begin to see
A bit of good luck for me

'Cause I've got a Purple ticket
I've got a Purple twinkle in my eye

I never had a chance to shine
Never a happy song to sing
But suddenly half the world is mine
What an amazing thing

'Cause I've got a Purple ticket

[Spoken]
It's ours, Larry!

[Sung]
I've got a Purple Moon up in the sky

I never thought I'd see the day
When I would face the world and say
Good morning, look at the sun
I never thought that I would be
Slap in the lap of luxury
'Cause I'd have said:

Larry:
It couldn't be done

Prince:
But it can be done

I never dreamed that I would climb
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, it's there that I'm
Shortly about to be

Prince and Larry:
'Cause I've got a Purple ticket
I've got a Purple chance to make my way
And with a Purple ticket, it's a Purple day

Prince:
[Spoken]
Good morning, look at the sun!

Prince and Larry:
[Sung]
'Cause I'd have said,
It couldn't be done

Prince:
But it can be done

I never dreamed that I would climb
Over the moon in ecstasy
But nevertheless, it's there that I'm
Shortly about to be

'Cause I've got a Purple ticket

Prince and Larry:
'Cause I've got a Purple ticket
I've got a Purple chance to make my way
And with a Purple ticket, it's a Purple day

You forgot the last line, spoken during the fadeout by Larry: "Touch my bass, you bitch...you nasty bitch!" eek

Why'd you have to make the refrain so catchy?

At least Purple Rain was an album that atracted the masses.


But its success led Prince to abandon its style for the most part and alienate a lot of his new fans. Prince has a love/hate relationship with the mainstream for sure. lol


That was one of the best moves he's made, though. He didn't want to get labeled with a sound that could go out of style - he established his versatility when he had the clout to get pretty much anything he put out played on the radio.

I agree. I'm happy to be a fan of an artist so subject to change. It makes the journey exciting and unpredictable.

I agree with that. This 3121 era is already exciting because it isn't like the Musicology Era.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

Vindication for the Prince fans! What the hell are you talking about? It would be awesome! So many people have written him off. So many people wonder why the hell we still listen to him. And all that aside, he makes awesome music and deserves the be rewarded for it, "at the bank"!

Stop being a Debbie Downer and GET HYPE!

do you really need to feel vindicated for liking Prince? how sad. why can't you enjoy Prince without having any type of emotional reaction from others opinions, regardless of whether it is positive or contrary?
