It's on Youtube. But you got to look for it yourself because we are not supposed to put links to Youtube on here of Prince or something like that.  [Edited 1/3/08 16:22pm] | |

If you go back into your annals of Prince history, Prince was in the middle of his Love4OneAnother charity tour, and eventually played Honolulu, Hawaii, for Prince's then-1-year wedding anniversary to Mayte Garcia. It is well documented that Michael Jackson held a concert in Honolulu and reviews said that most of his concert was pre-recorded, ala Milli Vinilli. So when Prince performed Honolulu a few weeks later (I know, I was there), one of Prince's constant remarks was "is this live or is this Memorex?" You can also say "real music by real musicians" quote Prince kept on saying back in 2002 through present day. Long story short, Prince took a stab at Michael Jackson saying his singing was partly / mostly fake dring MJ's concerts in the late 1990s. Take it for what it's worth. prince is a hypocrit! Face down on the chis rock show was lip synched anyway! Oh come on! Prince, as you well know, is one of the greatest live performers...EVER! Quite a number of TV shows are lip-synched - its not always within the artist's control. What is in their control is their own concerts, as they are responsible for the production. Prince has NEVER lip-synched a full concert, unlike Mr Jackson.  ...we have only scratched the surface of what the mind can do...

Prince has NEVER lip-synched a full concert, unlike Mr Jackson. well, to be precise, mj has never lip synched a full concert. he sings at least 4 live. but what i cant understand is why he doesent sign everything live. i can understand songs "Smooth Criminal" and "Jam" being mimed cause of the intense dance routines but why mime "Heal The World" or "Thriller"??? theres no excuse | |

i watched loads of P videos on YT yesterday but today the account is suspended - what a shame "C'mon y'all - let me hear you sing, c'mon y'all, shake, c'mon y'all, jump" - Yes Prince -
"London do you feel for me what I feel for you"- yes Prince - "Can I play my guitar now?" - yes please | |

Moreover, Prince had to evolve into the great live performer he is right now. Kudos for him for continuing to tour. But if one is going to compare these two artists, compare them during their respective peak eras since MJ started in show business a decade before Prince. [Edited 1/5/08 4:16am] | |

We know the reason. It's because his voice is shot. I have some of the History concerts on video. Over the course of two hours he does about 8 minutes of live singing and it sounds TERRIBLE. Don't expect to find any of that footage on Youtube though. Fans have deliberately kept it hidden, and with good reason. His voice was a mess. The truth is his vocals have been in steady decline ever since the second leg of the Bad Tour in 1988. From there it only got worse. “The man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

From there it only got worse. what is ailing his voice? God knows. Some have speculated that his nose jobs have affected his voice somehow. I know he had some problems with his voice as far back as the Destiny Tour in 1979. He lost it for a few months just from singing too much. My guess is that the 18 month Bad Tour was such a strain that his voice was permanently weakened, but this is all speculation. All we know for sure is that his live vocals got worse from 1988 onwards. “The man who never looks into a newspaper is better informed than he who reads them, inasmuch as he who knows nothing is nearer to truth than he whose mind is filled with falsehoods and errors.”

All we know for sure is that his live vocals got worse from 1988 onwards. its most likely the bad tour, singing a two hour concert every night for 18 months doesent do your voice much good! then the dangerous tour from late 92 - late 93 made things worse, although mimed about half of the songs to that. than came the history tour, where he only signed a few songs, one or two. watch this: (surprsingly, hes voice osnt too bad here, although i suppose its beacuse he hadnt uttered a note so far in the concert!) http://www.youtube.com/wa...h6V2Ap9Lfk 1997^^ | |

Somebody once told him that he wouldn't take Prince through the ringer
Let him go down as a washed up singer Ain't that a bitch? Thinkin' all along that he wanted 2 be rich Never respected the root of all evil and he still don't 2 this day, huh Bury him face down, let the motherfuckers kiss a ass, OK? If it were not for insanity, I would be sane.

Prince on the other hand has been at his peak for live performance for 23 years and still going strong. No, it doesn't erase MJs past achievements and I was a fan of his too, when he was great.

MJ was fantastic live in the '60s and '70s as well with the Jackson Five and the Jacksons. But not until the Destiny and Triumph tours did he prove that he ranks among the all-time greats. I am pointing this out not because I disagree with your previous comment, but because I think people often conveniently forget or are not aware that before the '90s and some of the last concerts on the Bad tour, he did not depend on backing tracks so much. | |

But you are right. He sang live 99% of the Bad World Tour. | |
