and thinks "oh my god, what did I look like/was I thinking"

Just saw The Ryde Divine again and Im not sure entirely what he must have been goin through his mind with that hair, Phantom of the Opera mask and a huge bat-winged top.

I just watched that too...that yellow costume w/the mask.
Im sure he looks back and says....."Daaaamnn.what the hell was i thinkin...?"
Especially the trench coat with the bikini underwear and red bandana around the
neck in the Dirty Mind days....and those boots.....lawd!!

yes!

Honestly.....I don't think Prince looks back. Creative people like Prince don't focus on yesterday. At least that's the way I see it.

I think Prince watches the clips of Ryde Dyvine and says to self:"damn, I am glad I tapped Carmen's ass before Navaro got a hold of her!"

man.....honeyies are a dime a dozen. I doubt he has EVER thought that about any honey. Pimps don't think that way and REAL players don't either.

I remember in 1993 it seemed like every picture...he just started looking worse and worse...and then the come era.... ...sometimes I wonder if he was coked out or something to be looking the way he did during this time.

(He was still hot though...just the hair and the outfits were... )

Seriously, though some of his looks are outragous, I still think he had his own way of leaving an impression. I still think he looks good despite what his style could be.

If Prince looks back on anything with regret, it's probably the Batman soundtrack.

He makes a point of leaving that album off his official discography and he didn't include Batdance or Electric Chair on his Hits collection.

I haven't heard him play anything from Batman in concert.

He plays partyman all the time..

When prince looks back he sees flames. Haunting. People on fire and bridges burning to the ground. Haunting.
This is why he doesn't look back...

Yes, Graffiti Bridge was terrifying...

He looks back at the pile of used condoms and goes, "damn, what a sexy little feller I be."

Payt said:

He used to play Vicki Waiting also.

He probably looks back and goes...

I think he doesnt include Btaman as he doesnt consider it an album as much as a soundtrack.

Ive seen him play:
Partyman
The Future
Scandalous
Vicki Waiting
I Love U In Me

from around that period.

I think he looked the worst with that Sherlock Holmes moustache and his mushroom hairdo...you know the one

Yes. Which is why anyone at Paisley Park caught playing the Scandalous video will be fired on the spot!

That was my request submission

DiamondGirl said:

cool... it is a good version.... errmmm not that i have it on cd or anything...(was it at a celbration or part of the xenophobia thing?)

SlamGlam said:

It was part of Musicology acoustic tour. Ive never heard it live. They asked for requests on the official website and I entered mine. Later that week, set lists reported that he sung I Love U In Me (at a show I obviously didn't attend).

FruitToAttractBears said:

whenever i watch that appearance...when he smacks himself i always go, "that's right, slap yerself! ain't had no business going up there anydamnway!!!"

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

MJ made him (called him out). But Im glad he DID go up

DiamondGirl said:
