Well, I LIKED his performance, and I was happy to see that Taylor Hicks won the contest.

Darn it, the show they had on Star World here wasn't this final special but the one before.

It'll be on here tonight, but I have to hope since I don't have that package that it'll be on the preview channel tomorrow morning.

Still, I can watch the video uploaded here, but it's not quite the same as watching it all in the context of the show.

It was great! Prince walke off that stage like he was the baddest mofo in that whole building. He was the only reason for me tuning in tonight because I was not going to watch it. He was the ish tonight. I'll be glowing for days. Did I mention how fine he was. Lawwd knows he was. The comb through the hair was classic. lol So damn sexy

ZombieKitten said:

ok fine for the dancing... but i don't think their voices match well with his at all... it always leaves me cringing

Pucker up.

I love how we can always count on you to be a downer, EWM.

TimeKeeper said:

You wish.

So you didn't like it fine. Plenty did. Live and let live.

It was so great.. It was really great to see Prince perform NEW songs instead of lets go crazy and purple rain.. and the back to basic, simple "how to do it" style was so cool; Prince saying: see youngsters, this is how its done.

totally cool...

all the nay sayers; get OFF the boat...

they're not the worst! (thinking back to baby I'm a star live video )

Who is hatin' on the Twinz? Either they can sing or they can't. Is there anyone that would like to step forward and say that their vocals were blessed by God?

I think it's safe to say that they can't sing.

On the other hand, they can dance their asses off.

purplecam said:

awesome surprise - what a showman - yes, the twins sounded really off but danced fine. Probably the best marketing move I've seen him do in a long time. That wife of his is giving him some good advice. cheers.

Better a downer than a kiss-ass.

I'm not a big fan of Lolita but for this show it was alright. Wouldn't have gone with Satisfied though. Ended his bit with a whimper instead of a bang. Should've played Love or Fury.

Didn't play tracks from Batman?

We're even

What's your point?

3121 is now #27 at Amazon. It'll probably be #10 by tomorrow afternoon.

I was simply ecstatic when I saw him perform. I ABSOLUTELY, UNDENIABLY LOOOOVED IT! I hadn't read the post on the org, and luckily (now I can actually say so) my boyfriend did not come over so I was bored enough to watch AI. I kept watching, just in case Prince had changed his mind about AI. And WOW, to my surprise there he was!!! Like many of u, I responded with deafening screams. Funny thing, because when I saw him at Tower records and walked past me several times, all I did was stare at him in silence. He probably saw my blank face and thought I was a "special" person! . Anyway, some of my friends/co-workers called me and/or text messaged me as well. At least I know, that had my boyfriend been here, I can count on my friends. So I missed 2/3 of the performace, I kept screaming and couldn't shut up! Good thing it's already posted on line. By the way, where are you guys getting this Amazon chart from? I keep looking for it and although I found a list of "hot 100", 3121 was not there.
I LOVED HIS PERFORMANCE AND HE JUST LOOKED AMAZING!

Holy crap this is a huge thread.

Prince is now at # 18 on amazon.com!!!

3121 is # 18!!!!!

Cool. Thanks J7. Weird rendition of Lolita... it's like the obvious AI poppy choice, and then he takes out all it's poppiness in the delivery. Strange - why the deep voice for that song? It came off a little icky.
And what's with the backing tape? Ah well, Satisfied was killer. And I loved his messed up hair at the end...

I've rewatched it - and am now really digging the Lolita.

Terrible camera editing tho, every time P starts dancing they do a crowd shot or a close-up! - guess that's what comes from 0 rehearsal...

PurpleCharm said:

I don't think they sound THAT bad. I mean seriously, if they did - would someone of Prince's caliber even use them in his show?
I thought it was funkin' awesome - saved a crappy show. (AI)

Hey!


jSeven. Thanks for the info!

Prince, you whore.

Actually, I didn't think it was that good at all by his merits - altough his dancing has become better after that secret hip surgery.
