Yet another example of Prince being contradictory. He doesn't have the right to post up these songs (or anything released on WB) - maybe someone should tell Warner Bros what he's doing.

I am listening to the Jam of The Week and it's In2 The Light/Eye Will off of Chaos & Disorder from 1996. Enjoy!

Love the songs, but for an artist with more than 1000 unreleased, recorded songs and every live show recorded, I think you could get more creative than posting a song from a previously released album.

yawn I haven't listened to C&D for ages and honestly, the songs were so forgettable to me that I can't even be bothered to:

    1. Go to 3121.com to listen to these
    2. Dig out my Chaos & Disorder cd to listen to them.


Three songs from C&D, an album that was supposedly throw-away material to get rid of WB, within the last few months when he has a back catologue of thousands of songs? Sorry, P. 'A' for effort, but 'F' for execution.

These songs are okay. I thought I HATED the entire C&D CD. Well THAT aught to teach me not to judge an entire album on only one play.

two great songs that obviously were meant to be combined into one great one...

I was wondering about these songs, that's why I thought it was just one song at first.

Since I can't do much today, doctor's orders, all I've been doing these past few hours was laying down with my headsets on listening to these songs repeatedly. Taking the time out and actually listening to and getting the feel for these songs was like a journey in my mind. It is very comforting and uplifting. I get the sense that Eye Will is a sort of personal resolution (if that's what it's called) by Prince. Like a promise to his 'higher self' (as like in CR).

Well, the first part anyway. In the second part, is he still talking to himself, where he says 'I will get to you'? Like an inner-self?

I'm sorry, I gotta paste the lyrics....

From out of the darkness, before there was time
There came a sound that enters the mind
Through a door that's deep in your soul
Through every pore of your body it goes
And in a light too bright to behold
Is a truth more shiny than gold
And as sure as this candle burns
Every soul must return

Into the light, into the light

From out of the light there comes a story...
Open your mind, and feel the glory
What's the hurry to die without trying?

If you could sell your worries (sell your worries)
Would anyone buy 'em? (oh no)
And for every flower that grows, even a baby knows
That as sure as the candle burns
Every soul must return

Into the light, into the light

I will walk this road, I will, I will
It's gonna be hard I know, but I will, I will
People come and they'll go, but I still, I still
Face up to the truth and just grow, I will, I will
I will fight this fight, I will, I will
I will sleep 2night, I will, I will
Ive been down before, but I still, I still
Remember what I came 4, I will, I will

I will get 2 U, I will, I will
And then I'll help U get thru, I will, I will
U've preyed on many a fool, until, until
No one cared about U, but I will, I will

I never forgot how awesome yet serene these 2 tracks are, always sent that tingle up my spine. The songs are in the middle of the album which break the cd up so well, is P trying to bend our ear to some C&D? Im glad alot of people are hearing this for the first time. Beautiful Horns, Piano and lovely soaring guitar at the end.

If it is possible to be in love with a song, then I am guilty, what a beautiful song, love the composition. The horns really set the mood for the song, it stirs my soul.... highfive

Listening to this jam right now while I'm doing things around the house! (still moody - this song is just right, at this moment. Can I say that I love these songs again?)













Ok, back to work.

I've been listening to these songs all day long while working around the home and it's helped me to think about my life situation. All those years I've been in a 'darkness', so to speak, living my life in a void and not letting anyone in, or anyone get to me. Basically, I sort of gave up and accepted the 'sad/dejected' life that I was living; and considered myself a lost soul. But now thinking of what these lyrics say; Every soul must return to the light, Open your mind and feel the glory, is very touching. To me it translates that one cannot live in a mental prison all their life but must eventually come out and taste life again. (my interpretation anyway)

interesting you say that, back in 1992 i was working during the summer and shared a room with this guy from college, anyway,i think I kinda freaked him, as one morning before we went to work, he looked at me and said, that in the middle of the night, I sat up in my bed and screamed "My life is a prison" dont think he ever got over that. Then a few yrs ago, I was out having a few drinks with another work colleague, and we got into some discussion about building walls around yourself, to protect yourself. he looked at me and said, "Remember the walls you build around yourself, actually imprison you"
If it were not for insanity, I would be sane.

Do you think that this is what this song means? Or maybe it's just that I interpreted it that way? Maybe sometimes we don't realize that we're building walls around ourselves, although, I knew I was. Maybe your colleague was telling you something?
