How about indie rock/guitar band stuff? He generally does more straight ahead rock with big guitar solos. He had some punk thrown in there in the early days, I know. But he's never really done anything in the Oasis/Libertines/Arctic Monkeys area, has he? (yes, I know Prince came first etc etc)


the undertaker album?

He did Country, remember that song on the Muppet show? Also, the song on Chaos and Disorder. Solo is Oprah. He did Classical. No other music he really needs to do.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

My research advisor just hipped me to this.

He says they have the worst videos. And when he wanted to buy some in Mexico City, his friend was like talk to the hand "Not if I'm standing next to you..." lol

That's why I said "serious" country. That "bear tracks" thing was done in just...

Arguably, Purple Rain is a country song as well, however...hmmm

LMAO! Imagine him trying to do a song like that.

He's never done Celtic music, as far as I know.

He never did CLASSICAL song...or CLASSICAL music....


Have not looked through the entire thread, but does Kamasutra by the NPG Orchestra = classical music?


If this is not classical then what does Kamasutra fall under?

Emo...the closest thing he's gotten to emo was "Gotta Broken Heart Again."

I'd also like to see if he could do Third Wave Ska. That'd be interesting.

Eh,the Undertaker album is more of big rock / blues rock in the style of Jimi Hendrix. It would be cool though to see Prince do rock in the style of indie rock like Connor Oberst and the Smiths and Hot Hot Heat. Indie rock today has Prince influences with heavy use of keyboards and drum machines. He'd succeed in that.
