The Prince Madonna Duet

What was the name of the song they did together and whose CD is it on?

Rumour has it that Prince also played guitar on Like a Prayer, the song.
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

Not a rumour, he actually did (but it wasn't used in the final mix). It can be
heard on the track 'Act Of Contrition' and some of the remixes of 'Like A Prayer'
He also palyed some guitar on 'Keep It Together'.

I wonder if Madonna and Prince ever hooked up lol

I would have liked to see her on Grafitti Bridge instead of that other girl, she irritated the hell out of me.

Well, Prince wanted that to happen, but Madonna thought the Graffiti Bridge
script was "A piece of shit" and passed on it (who can balme her!)

This is one my absolute fave songs. I am not a huge Madonna fan...but I always liked this album (still listen to it every once in awhile). This song, however, has aged incredibly well. Very cool and very original. Has an "It" (the song) quality to it imo.

I actually found the song very disappointing, and wonder if other people did when it first debuted in the 80's. I mean, they were 2 of the biggest stars on the planet, and I expected the song to be AMAZING. Instead, I found it a little disheveled, and sparse, like they weren't finished working on it. The vocals sounded lazy too. Maybe that's what they were going for, but it was a big let down when I finally heard it.

Madonna has said that they completed the song by sending tapes back and forth.That's why it has a "demo-like" sound to it.And I agree,it doesn't sound completely finished.I like it,though.

By the way, does anyone know if Prince and Madonna are still friends? or did they part ways after Madgie's negative to appear in Graffiti Bridge?

Hw wrote an "open letter to Madonna" in the late 90s,trying to get her to help him in his fight against Warners.She didn't respond,though.Last week,they were both at the same Oscar party,if I'm not mistaken.I wonder if they even talked to each other?

You can hear that guitar work on the Like A Prayer 12" extended version (and the only version i will listen to now - its a masterpeice). You're right about Keep It together though, I remember madonna confirming in an interview that P played on KIT.

80s pop song of the day: "Love Song" by Madonna and Prince (1989)
(written by Prince and Madonna)


Je suis prete.Vous etes prets aussi? (I am ready.Are you ready also?)

Are you wasting my time
Are you just being kind
Oh no baby,my love isn't blind
Are you wasting my time
Are you just being kind
Don't give me one of your lines

Say what you mean,mean what you say
Don't go and throw our love away
God strike me dead if I did you wrong
This is not a love song

Are you just being kind
Am I losin' my mind (losin' your mind)
Oh no baby (yeah)

Are you wasting my time (wasting my time)
Are you just being kind
Oh no baby,my love isn't blind
Are you wasting my time (time,time,time)
Are you just being kind
Don't go give me one of your lines

Say what you mean,mean what you say
Don't go and throw our love away
God strike me dead if I did you wrong (did you wrong)
This is not a love song

Ooh,are your just being kind (what?)
Am I losing my mind
Yeah

Don't (wait)
Time goes by so slowly for those who wait
and those who run seem to have all the fun
But am I wasting my time (she's so fine)
Are you just being kind (No!)

Come tell me what all your enemies told you
Sugar,never,ever did I do you wrong
This is not a love song

Are you just being kind
Am I losin' my mind (losin' your mind)
Oh no baby (yeah)

Are you wasting my time (wasting my time)
Are you just being kind
Oh no baby,my love isn't blind
Are you just being kind
Don't go give me one of your lines

Nowhere to run,nowhere to hide
That's how I feel,don't fog my mind
Mean what you say or baby I am gone
This is not a love song

Ooh,are you just being kind
Embrasse moi (what?) (Kiss me)
Am I losin' my mind
Pour la derniere fois (For the last time)
Yeah

Love song,love song
Don't try to tell me what your enemies taught you
I'm gone but I just want you to know (love song)
That this is the not a love song that I want to sing
