Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown | |

Neither. Sheena ain't right, Sheila ain't dead on it. Sheila is on the 3 with a latin thing. Sheena don't even find the 3. let alone the 2 and 4.

Sheila, no doubt about it. The chemistry those two had was incredible. He could have kept Sheila in his band forever, and I wouldn't have complained. Do not hurry yourself in your spirit to become offended, for the taking of offense is what rests in the bosom of the stupid ones. (Ecclesiastes 7:9) | |

Sheila all the way. Her contributions to Prince's music are astounding. Maybe not with her vocal talent but with her musical talent for sure. 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

Did Sheila E give birth to Camille?
Camille first appeared in Erotic City. After EC, Prince made a couple of incredibly artistic albums (ATWIAD & Parade) and Camille was absent from both albums. Then you had Wendy & Lisa leaving the band and in comes Sheila E and what do ya know, Camille makes a return (Black Album, Sign & to some degree Lovesexy). Wendy & Lisa's influence on Prince's music was distinct. So was Sheila's. With Wendy and Lisa, the music was focused on melody using the piano and synth as a center point. With Sheila, the music was more focused on percussion. Look at songs like Merci for the Speed of a Mad Clown in Summer & 2 Nigs United for West Compton. Sheila brought out the competitor in Prince. The mad bass and drums both competing for center stage is what I LOVED about their collaboration. I loved Wendy & Lisa's contributions and influence but I really miss Prince throwing down like there's no tomorrow. 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

Sheila E wins this one, hands down.
She definitely influenced Prince in a positive way. His music was tight with her. I can only imagine what "Diamonds & Pearls" would've sounded like if she had still been in the mix. Isn't it a coincidence that both Sheila and Prince became religious "jazz musicians" at the same time in their lives? By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! | |

Definitely Sheila. She has a decent voice and she can play drums and percussion. | |

Sheila & Prince r like 2 peas in a pod, they work gr8 2gether even when its unexpected, they both exude illustriousness in some areas & r good 2 back each other, it helps that Sheila is multitalented such as Prince ...
However i must say i adore Sheena's vocals, she certainly has good pipes & awesome style! hehe ... so I suppose she would be sitting at the head of the singing department in my eyes but Sheila is more rounded U know they both bring out something fascinating in Prince’s music ... i wouldnt be me without having 2 edit *lowers head* ugh [This message was edited Fri Aug 9 15:33:34 PDT 2002 by harmony] Got Gackt??!

Eye no DavidEye, Prince goes good with Sheena, and Camille goes good with Sheila right? Actually think about it for a couple of seconds...makes sense doesn't it? | |
