That's what I'm waiting for. I truly believe once he realizes that being a Jehovah's Witness has stifled and deadened the true man....look out, world. Look out....


I don't think that by P being JW has put a damper on his career. Sorry folks but P still puts out some good jams. You gotta learn and except change every once in a while. I don't think I would have continued as a fan/fam as much as I am now had he continued in the same direction since the 80's and he probably wouldn't be where he is today. He'd be as some have said about Vegas "WASHED UP". No doubt, some great music during the 80's and 90's, but I'm enjoying a dif flavor.


True, actually I think his religion has made him a "stronger" person, regardless of how his fans feel about his religious beliefs, and it is his personal right to choose whatever faith makes him feel spiritually comfortable, not ours. When I see artists like Britney, or how the late great artists like Janis Joplin, Jimmy Hendrix chose another road to "seek comfort", really makes me applaud Prince for choosing a spiritual road instead or it would have been disastrous had he chose to go in the other direction as Janis and Jimi who were great artists and a big loss to the music world.

As long as I get the things I requested, I'm cool! lol


Sweet! We're all in agreement. Now all we have to do is convince Bewdy to get rid of the stuff! wink


Did anyone ask for a prince guitar pick? I'll help you guys if it gets me one. I wonder if Bewdy likes Kiss?

Well I've just listend to the new track 'guitar', and I got to say for me, thats it. I've been a fan for a long time, and I'll always love some of the older favourites, but I just can't digest the new stuff prince is putting out. I find it really unmusical, very unoriginal and just generally a bit crap. (a total contrast to what I used to think about the music he wrote.)

If he's ever in town again I might go and see him for the live shows, but even the last few live performaces for me have been a bit uninspired, certainly nothing in he league of the lovesexy tours. What a shame.

Hang on, hang on. Give the orger his/her say. If they feel that upset about the output of one of their musical favourites they have the right to express that. Instead of waving and criticising and chuckling, ask questions and attempt to get a reasoned response.

Be a bit grown up.


Yes. Encore. Guitar was total dreck. It was $1.99 worth of pure craptacular entertainment.

But, you can't give up on Prince because of one song or even because of one trend in his music. This is Prince. Anything is possible with this man. One minute you're downloading guitar and saying WTF? The next, you're watching the Superbowl and crankin up Best of You.

At this stage of the game, Prince can pretty much do whatever he wants to do. It's interesting to see how his marriage of pop and art, commerce and creed, sex and god, white and black, and every other dichotomy out there, how it all plays out.

Even when it's train-wreck Prince, it's still fascinating.

And when the brother is on....there IS nothing better.

i'm not trying to dissuade you, though. as far as i'm concerned, it's one less person shoving me at an aftershow. lol

I agree, I think we are like the same branch of music from His tree.
The last CD that really captured my attention was One Nite Alone.
Ever since then I have to pick and choose what I like. So, Yeah it used to be the other way around I would have to pick a choose what I didn't like.
But there are still songs that are fun to sing as I drive, lol

We can funk/joy in repitition,
FLSMW
Something in the Water
Free
LRC
Everywhere
Gold
Endorphinmachine

What I'd like to see is a Guitar solo Lp with guest lead singers
Bon Jovi
Mick Jagger
Wendy & Lisa
Bowie
Lenny
Bono
Alanis
Sade
Meshell Ndegeocello
even Micheal Jackson

I can't recall a recent track of prince's which I think has inspired me the way say 'joy in repitition' did / does.

And why am i announcing it, well hell why does anybody say anything, becuase I can.[/quote]
We all want a big hit again because
we want to relive the Hysteria & Pandemonium we experienced
when Purple Rain was Hot. Actually, he doesn't care if it happens again or not.

One more thing, I hope you don't get tickets to any of his shows. Gives someone who's really into Prince a chance to appreciate what he's doing, especially if he/she's new to the Purple World. Bye! lol lol lol

d) It would interesting to hear what you, Bewdy, consider to the last 'good' Prince tune. I've been a fan for a long time, but there are songs on all the albums he's released - including NPS - that are worthwhile listens/better than most of the garbage out there. Lolita is one of these songs - chirpy, happy pop-song - as are many of the other songs - I'm not going to list. What do you consider to be Prince's last good song?


I think this is point for me, i used to be able to buy a prince album and pretty much every track on there was a winner, sometimes there was the odd dog, like 'positivty' on lovesexy, but on the whole I could hit play at the beginning and leave the Cd running. Now it's a case of skip, skip, skip, skip, eject. insert, Ah... stevie wonder, innervisions....

I can't recall a recent track of prince's which I think has inspired me the way say 'joy in repitition' did / does.

And why am i announcing it, well hell why does anybody say anything, becuase I can.

Yes Joy In Repetition is a great song, but taking your whole point into consideration: Why pick a song from what many feel to be a weaker album on the whole? Do you find Grafitti Bridge to be a good or great albunm? It's fine if you do, everyone has their own opinion and that is what makes music great! Not bagging on you, just wondering. Not one song on his recent albums have you liked?
