kinna late for this, ain't it?


exactly. "love" might have been a moderate hit in europe during the summer.
right now it's just too late.

i dunno, i always considered "the word" to be a nice r&b single perhaps he
could have released a double aside or something love/the word.

anywayz, too late now. i doubt wether he would even care at this point
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

What can anyone possibly gain from calling a radio station
& bugging them to get a song played on the radio?
What a waste of time!

First of all, to the naysayers....

I have albums, yes ALBUMS that I listen to that I think songs on them need to be re-released. So why can't a song off of a CD that is only 9 months old be released? You know how long it took MJ to have a hit with "Smooth Criminal"? It was at least that long. So, I say let's try it!

Thanks! I appreciate all of the positive feedback from most of you, but wasn't prepared for the negative. Yeesh! If P reads some of the negative feedback some people say about him on the org, I think he'd go nuts!

But I'm with you, "Cheese". biggrin What could be cooler than a group of us on the org working together to give '3121' it's second wind and getting it some more play? Nothing, that's what. You know how long it is b2ween Prince albums anyway. Why not make the most of what we have?

Has anyone had any luck getting thru to any of the stations? So far, I personally have sent about 5 e-mails to my local station in Dallas, and have had about 10 friends do the same. So, together we've made roughly 15 requests.

Can anyone from any of the larger cities post request line phone numbers here?

Is anyone listening to me at all? Anyone? Helloooo..ooo..oo...o....sad

So c-c-c-cold...hard..to..think..out here...brrr.....

That boat has already been boarded, and it departed.
News: Prince pulls his head out his ass in the last moment.
Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.
You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop.

Aww. it's a sweet idea but Prince fans are old. They dont have our youthfull engery. Half the org probaly was exausted from just reading your post, and they're take a nap now.


But, i would suggest lauching your campgain right after super bowl. You'll have a huge buzz going and have not just Prince fams but regular folks calling radio station for Prince.

I know, and you're very sweet. But my whole point is generating the buzz BEFORE the Super Bowl! I know this Super Bowl thing is gonna be the coolest thing to happen to him since Diamonds & Pearls, so was just trying to help him out. Ghad, I have no doubt the world's gonna want him back BIG TIME after the SB show.

I wanted to do something despite the odds, not because of them. I'm just like that sometimes. But thanks for the encouragement anyway. biggrin
