of course it's his opinion, I don't think SlamGlam attempted to present it as anyone elses opinion but his own, so what's your point? your emphasis is irrelevent and doesn't make it less credible. don't be so defensive. Prince doesn't need your defense, I am sure he feels just fine about the song whether SlamGlam likes it or not without a need to defend it to him and so should you.

because being a fan and visiting a fan site in no way obligates you to have to like everything they do or temper your opinions. why can't a Prince song be criticized harshly just because this is a Prince site where it is obvious we are all Prince fans and have something rather personal in common. this is, in fact, the very perfect place to call a Prince song crap because at least it is coming from a little more unbiased crowd than just the general public which has abolutely no emotional investment in Prince or his music. lighten up and don't take Prince so personal.

Thankyou someone that shares my Opinion....

But I Havent seen the movie yet it comes out on the 29th here

It seems, like he'll have a very nice year, let's hope he delivers a new album also. 3121 was better than musicology, so we can hope the next is even better - it's amazing to see almost 50year-old musician, who can write and produce entire album and get noticed (Grammy) and commercial success also. If he want's to have no 1 single - then he should collaborate, but I don't care. I need only good music!

Jughead kicks ass, love it.

Neither of the last 2 albums (which I didn't dislike) got anywhere near the rainbow children. For me those last 2 albums have been attempts to compromise without completely loosing his own individuality. He's done this before, and I've been hoping it's a means to an end and not an end in itself. Almost 50 and the millions he's earned! The awards he's recieved from god knows how many morons! I hope P. doesn't become a cool kind of mick jagger. He should get back to doing something new and mind blowing because that's what he's good at. thank y'kindly!

commercial success... Funk it!

i don't know about the rest of you, but it had me dancing out of the movie...

happy feet had so much grown-up stuff in it, really. the song for me was a treat.

I haven't heard the song but I trust it's very nice. There's no doubting ps mastery. Big bucks, has he got any other values?

PocketFullofHorses said:

Precisely! (Thank u PocketFullofHorses) There r just 2 many fools that don't bother 2 think, not even in the most minimal of levels! The aforementioned statement is without a doubt vacous and inane! Glad 2 no that some of us c through these odious and preposterous statements!

Indeed. Prince couldn't write a song where he sings in a sexy, low voice and rips a guitar solo. The song's positive and cutesy like the movie it was recorded for.

dumbass said:

Oh please, you know damn well that never happens around here. People try to push their views on other people all the time.






If SlamGlam has the right to put the song down, Bellanoche has the right to defend the song. You naysayers don't get to have it your way all the time.

I don't see it that way. I think there's a section of people here [not SlamGlam necessarily] who ARE biased against Prince and who make it their mission to make life hell for the rest of us who aren't.

Y'all sound like bickering old ladies, why don't you put a lid on it!

vanity69 said:

NICE! Havent heard it yet tho. Happy feet neither. I get

behind. I'm a busy woman!

Great to see him nominated, but I can think of portions of his work more deserving of accolades than SOTH. It's cute, but not his best work IMO.


That said, I did like it and LOVED the movie it was intended for. Penguins rock.
[Edited 12/15/06 21:11pm]

I saw the flick last nite, and IMHO, the song is better than half of what's on 3121.

I've been listening to it regularly now. It's a cute and catchy tune especially when watched with the music video: http://www.youtube.com/wa...w2AvYiSuoQ I wish it was available at iTunes as a single purchase instead of buying the whole album. Is there another online music website where I can buy the song for download as a single?

BlaqueKnight said:

can't argue with that.

This is the best news I've heard in a long time.....
Congrats on the nomination Prince...

I'm glad for Prince getting the nod. Congrats! But I'm still upset he didn't get any nominations for songs off of "Purple Rain", "Under the Cherry Moon", or"Batman". But I'm still happy for him.

shygirl said:

excuse mwa? I haven't been orging for a while... can anyone give me more gossip on this I almost choked on my mini wheats.

PurpleKnight said:

it's a sad world when BORAT is considered a good movie.

I respect Prince's talent BIG TIME, and know 99% of his songs are better that most of any past OSCAR songs... But I just saw Dreamgirls, my wife's fav play & music, in an advanced screening in NYC....and WOW, sorry my brother...but both the movie and the new song Listen, gave me chills I haven't had since Purple Rain...Yikes. So Listen will win...but it's great that my main man in music is getting nominated again!

Go see Dreamgirls! and see Eddie Murphy channel JB & PRN!

good lord- so much negativity for a good thing.... sheez.

the song's good, has a good beat and message, and fits the film. what more do you want?

the fact that prince is doing a song for an animated film only proves how versatile he is and how wide his range of music is. besides- its a great way to get younger kids into Prince. i mean, with the "music" out there today, somebody has to teach them who real ARTISTS are.

if prince wins, he wins. if not, hey he at least goes to the golden globes and gets some media attention or w/e. I don't see why there's so much negativity for the song being nominated. the nomination will be good for the film.

okay another crappy song nominated, oh well!

Of the given list, to my knowledge, B O R A T is the best movie, perhaps the only good one. What on earth is wrong with you?
ali g is just making fun of some hideous people, who are trying to preserve their very limited, subjective (for want of a better word) "view"
Roses are red but what do they taste like?
That good hiphop band, Outkast, do they really sing, "roses really smell like pooo-uh-hooo..."?

Casino Royal and Vendetta are obviously on the opposite end of "damn good stuff"
purple knight, I'm disappointed in you too!

T H I N K O N !!
