"Rebirth Of The Flesh" appreciation thread Why, oh, why was this never released? I just can't believe it. It's one of the most bizarrely overlooked-for-release tracks in his entire career.
Yeah, I know there was a lame rehearsal version put out on NPGMC, but that hardly counts. This song is just incredible to me. Of the unreleased tracks from that perdiod, it (along with In A Large Room With No Light) is the epitome of what was so right about Prince's music at the time. It's innovative, energetic, weird, sexual, etc. I love it! "Half of what I say is meaningless; but I say it so that the other half may reach you." - Kahlil Gibran | |

I don't want Prince to release it b/c when he does he's going to chop it up and remove parts from it.
It's a classic Camille Track Raze said: Why, oh, why was this never released? I just can't believe it. It's one of the most bizarrely overlooked-for-release tracks in his entire career.

One of Prince's greatest opening tracks ever IMO! Perfect blend of funk and rock!  | |

Whenever someone asks what my favorite Prince song is, without blinking, I answer "Rebirth of the Flesh"- and have for years. 
I love that song! "Love Hurts. Your lies, they cut me. Now your words don't mean a thing. I don't give a damn if you ever loved me..." -Cher, "Woman's World" | |

this song is so cool. i think it would have been good on the black album. it has that same vibe with that whole "this aint cards muthafucka this is life" part. the hook is real catchy too. awesome. For all time I am with you, you are with me. | |

The little bitch actually said the words "We are here, where are you?" at the Macy's gig a few weeks back too. He had Derek and I so worked up! | |

It's a killer Camille rock track mentioned in The Vault. Ah, I never memorised the 'mere mentions'. There's too many of those. I just memorise the actual music that found it's way out of it's prison. Prince, The Jailer. |

Uptight Prince fans. it was either described to them by a Prince insider, or they went to the Library of Congress and listened to the tape submitted there. "Half of what I say is meaningless; but I say it so that the other half may reach you." - Kahlil Gibran | |
