Hi Folks, just wondering. I saw the movie Forgetting Sarah Marshall a few days ago. It included nothing compares 2 u in Hawaiian. Anyone heard this before? Artist name and so on?

The movie was OK BTW. But don't go if you get offended by seeing the private parts of Jason Segel.

i saw this film too!

did you notice the band playing jungle love aswell?

(and sorry, i dont know who NC2U was by )

imdb.com has it as being by The Coconutz with Daniel Ho.

I didnt think it was a very good film apart from Russel Brand.

Anyway, Prince got three seperate credits at the end of the film. Jungle Love, NC2U (hawaiian) NC2U (sinead oC). Some easy money for him there.

Anyone else know of any films that have given him several credits for a film nothing to do with him?

I just checked the soundtrack album listed at play.com and it has the version on the album credited to FSM Band, but this isn't necessarily the hawaiian version as soundtracks sometimes have alternate versions of songs to the ones that you hear in films.

it was in the bar just before he sang that dracula musical thing!

yeah right, rub it in

Prince has also done concerts in Hawaii. Wouldn't it be great if HE has some of his songs in that language? I would faint, it would be so romantic

I remember showing an Ex of mine some of my Prince collection that included european and Japanese pressings.


They asked if Prince sung the songs in those languages. I nearly died!!!!!

I now that some artists produce dual albums when there native language is 'not' English.....

.....but the fact that they seriously considered for a short while that Prince spoke/sung/recorded his music in nearly 10 different languages.....


.....and people in the past have had the cheek to say I'm mental!!!!!




Perhaps Prince is considering a hawaian influence for his next album?


Let's hope not!!!!!

I did not mean that he would record in that language, but many artist when they perform in another country have sung at least one of they're songs in that native language, it's beeen done onstage here in the U.S. the audiences enjoy it.

Oh Hun, I know! Although I'm quite surprised that he hasn't recorded a song in another language.

He has always had a bit of an obsession with French and Spanish, which are definitely the most suited languages for his ballads!

I wonder if he actually speaks any other languages, or what languages (in part) he has ever been heard using! Hmmmm?

This is old news. How do I know? Because I posted it the day the movie came out.

I was afraid of this,
but searching in the org does not seem to work.....
But anyway, it was not intended as news, but as a question.

It sure doesn't, and I wasn't around here the day it came out so it's a nice discussion to me.

Dayclear said:

Me too!!!


Got me thinking now if Prince does actually speak any other languages?

mentalist said:

I don't think so. Why would he? A lot of artists try some words in the language of the country there in (Thank you and so on). Mick Jagger even has a sentence or two. Never heard Prince say : Hallo Nederland, ik ben blij dat ik er weer ben en laten we nu gek gaan....

mentalist said:

Au Contrare! Princes 'influences' usually revolve around women, and those Hawaiian Chicks are Saucy with a capital 'S'...

remko said:

"Vous Etre Belle, Mama Girls & Boys"...

seriously though, he usually gets others to do the 'foreign' bits (e.g. Marie France & Mayte).

Te Amo Corazon...4 years of Spanish 1 in high school finally paid off

viewaskew said:

Actually, I posted it before you, so it was old news when you put it up. Lots of people don't use the search function.

All of which is totally no big deal. I just wanted to point out to people that search does indeed work. You have to use the Google search at the top right of the page, in the same purple bar that the prince.org logo is in. Don't use the dead search bar that's lower down.

I don't know about several credits, but a cover version of Nasty Girl is featured quite prominently in "Dan in Real Life."

Hey....Hawaii is owned by the U.S.A. And Love is the language. And ya know...I Love U Prince....Dan Reed, and I were just friends...sweetheart... I Love U.
