Last night, Prince was on the BBC 6 o'clock News because of all this Mail on Sunday stuff, and there was a preview of the advert that will be shown on UK tv advertsising the Mail on Sunday.

Thing is, the advert is almost EXACTLY the same of the Verizon one, except when it used to say you can get it exclusively by VCast, they've changed it to say MAil on Sunday. It must have took the work experience boy about 10 minutes to complete! Anyway, here's the link so you can watch it:

So they're still using that goddamn Guitar to promote the album?

Yep! It has been getting a lot of airplay on BBC Radio 2 since the beginning of last week, so maybe they think it has seeped into the nation's conciousness. Or maybe P just didn't want to give them another song to use, he's like that.

Then again, I'm still to see the advert on tv, the only place I've seen it is the website!

Saw the advert last night on C4 during break of "Brothers and Sisters" around 10:15pm

I think this is good marketing for Prince. HE gets a fee for giving away his cd cash in the bank and us his fans get the cd for £1.50 and a crappy newspaper thrown in free!!!
