I think this needs to be said.

If you do not enjoy at least one of the three, you are not a Prince fan any longer. I also question your taste in music.

1. Guitar
2. Future Baby Mama
3. The One You Wanna See

Man, what a killer first five songs...

planet earth, guitar, somewhere here on earth, the one you wanna see, future baby mama. all different songs, all skillfully done by the master. there is no equal to prince.

great song.
very catchy.

I am very excited about the new album. Seems prince is very inspired. It has the energy of his mid 80´s classic era.

Here's the lyrics... (Or at least the best I can work them out to be! Apologies for any mistakes. the "xxxx" is a line I can't decipher.


(1st verse)

I know I ain't the first to tell ya
I sho bet I won't be the last
I know ur in a hurry baby
So let me make this fast

(Chorus)
I got a lotta money
I don't wanna spend it on me
I like pretty thangs
Ur just as pretty as u can be
So if u ain't busy later
And u want some company
I ain't trying to be a hater
I'm the one, the one, the one u wana c


(2nd verse)
Look around u baby
u know u've seen it all before
Every nickle in this club lookin 4 a dime
xxxxx

ur 2 tall 2 be talked down 2
2 over it 2 be put under
xxxxx
that's why I came like Thunder

Repeat Chorus

Musical break, with fun little guitar solo

(3rd verse)

U don't need 2 fix ur hair
4 somebody u don't care 4
U don't need 2 shave ur legs
if it ain't me that's knocking at ur door
I know u ain't a concubine
I know u ain't a one nite stand
I don't wanna waste ur time
If u wanna get creamy
I'm the one u wanna c


Oh the one u wanna c baby
Oh the one u wanna c
I'm the one u wanna c
(repeat)

Coming on u like thunder


Falsetto and some ad libbing
More guitar solo

Fade out

Yeah, I agree. If you don't like at least one of them then you don't deserve to ever listen to Prince again. You deserve to listen to (insert name of crappy band) for the next 5 years and maybe then you will re-learn to appreciate good music. Damn, it's true, Prince fans are soooo spoiled!

I have to give it to the man, its fresh as fuck and it is getting me excited for the album and upcoming gig

"If u wanna get creamy" LOL....I love Prince lyrics like that!

Imagine this song being done live!

I love being a Prince fan!

The One U wanna C


After a second listing, it's a cross between that Dick Dale surfer music and something Shania Twain might sing...Wierd but in an Awesome way.Whomever said "Never take the place of your man" -- yeah, I'm digging it like that.

I am totally diggin' on this new tune. I've never heard this kind of a sound from Prince before. I can totally see myself driving in my car with the windows down with this tune turned up really loud. Can't wait for the album .

Am sittin here trying to be all judgmental and shit, then a funny thing happens, my feet start boppin all by themselves. Rock on baby.

Ok, I'm not sure to make of this song.

It doesn't sound like anything he's released on single before. The closest that I can say is that it sounds taking "So Far, So Pleased", adding more life to it, and taking a John meloncamp "Jack & Dianne/Born in a Small Town" feel to it. So it sounds very oddly familiar, definitely catchy, not over-the-top awesome, but very catchy anyways.

Second and third listens were much better than the initial listening. It's yet another one of those songs where folks will sing along to it and say "That was Prince?"

Love the female backing vocals and the overall vibe. My favorite of the three songs. He sounds really young on this track.\

instant classic

a country pop version of so far so pleased, neon telephone, when you were mine.

prince should do more music like this... you just feel good listening to it.

At last, a rock and roll song u can dance to.

A fun , really infectious , pop song , good stuff

For the musicians...


It seems to be a classic A, D, E rock pattern. (I'm a very basic player so I'm sure I'll be corrected!)

man, this tune makes me wanna dance my ass off. bonafide booty shaker y'all

It is catchy as all heck.

Oh, lawd...I just flashed on folks line dancing to Prince.

I feel faint...

This song is fantastic, it harks back to the quality of "play in the sunshine", fantastic summer tune, thank you prince you have made my summer!

lspear76 said:

Hehe, I can't agree, that is too strict. 1. is okay, 2. is better than ok, 3. is funny.

But i understand, if someone doesen't like them... :

Yeah, it is a big grower. First time listening, you ask yourself: "what's this", but if you have heard it before, its really catchy and danceable. Well done.

After a few listens sounds pretty good

But I have 2 say I was not prepared for this sound

WOOOOO-HOOOOO! I love it!
The zesty vibe on this song is pretty invigorating.
