Do you get the impression that a lot of listeners know about and like Prince then? I was talking to a 19 year old recently and he'd never heard of Prince!! I was like  purple rain won. everyone in england kows who prince is. well, about 95% | |

Maybe i shouldn't have mentioned 'the saviour of radio one' in this topic, it seems to have over shadowed the actual point!!!
To be honest, the only time Prince would be played at the moment is on a Friday morning in The Golden hour..... i just get fed up with the lack of interest for such a long standing artist like Prince... Am i just being naive or what???? 
Never mind though!!!! The one good thing that has come out of this, is that i have had the most responses to one of my topics...  "If i was anything other than human,
I'd be the water in your bath" | |

Well, I think some of that is to do with the way he markets (or doesn't market!) his music - it all seems a bit haphazard (but he seems to be quite happy with it) so I don't know!  | |

this is 2 prevent the x factor winner getting this position! Yeah, they were No.10 in the download chart on Sunday!! I Love that song too! Also, in the Mail on Sunday magazine, there was an article about 4 of the top Night Clubs in London, (where all the top celebs and Prince Harry and William go, for those in the US) Boujis, Mahiki, Chinawhite and Kensington Gdns Rooftop. The top playlists from Boujis and Mahiki included Prince - Alphabet Street (Boujis) and Kiss (Mahiki). Actually, the playlist from Mahiki was brilliant, made me feel like getting my dancing shoes on!!
This is the playlist: Superstition - Stevie Wonder, Sex Machine - James Brown, Rock the Casbah - The Clash, I want you Back - Jackson 5, Everyday People - Arrested Development, Groove is in the Heart - Deee-Lite, Billie Jean - Michael Jackson, Kiss - Prince, Respect - Aretha Franklin, Nine to Five - Dolly Parton.
