Was just listening to a Lovesexy concert boot, and there's a vocal track labelled 'When 2 R in Love', but is actually just a vocal interlude, with beat-boxing. Does anybody know if that was Prince? The recording was from an Osaka performance if it helps.

Is there any end to his talents?

question a...I dunno.
question b...yes...there is no end to Prince's talents.

your avatar is hilarious and I'd love to hear Prince beat box. He did a pretty decent rap on Prince and the Band and I noticed he does sound effects pretty good.

His beatboxing preceding Tamborine during his last London aftershow at the Marquee was pretty good

It was probably him. He beatboxes during alpabet st. too.
On the Lovesexy vhs, anyway.

Michael Jackson beatboxes better.

He was found innocent. Let's give it a rest already. What does that have to do with the music anyway?

u have heard that PAYOLA is illegal haven't u? but yet it still xists in the music business 2day..the same thing as 4 ur pedophile friend..money was slipped under that table

and as 4 what does it have 2 do with the music? ahhh last i checked this is a PRINCE site..and unless the thread is about the music of the pedophile, then it doesn't belong on this side of the fence. it just cracks me up how the pedophile fans always have 2 come on this site and praise his antics

Prince often 'mouths' his live guitar solo's when he's really into it; he is 'singing' the notes he plays on his guitar.

He often does it on musical interludes too; he often 'beatboxes' melodies, Ellea Fitzgerald-like, like 4:41 into Hot Thing. During rehearsles this is also how he conveys melodies to his band, so they continue with a groove without stopping.

I've noticed the "mouthing the solo" thing, too. He treats the guitar as an extension of his voice - which I love.

There is a true "beat box" moment at 2:38 of Welcome 2 The Dawn.

I don't think anyone was praising MJ.

RUHip2TheJive said:

point of the matter is ..the pedophile fans will always and have interject there "hero" in2 a prince thread that isn't called 4. all i'm saying is, take it 2 that site and leave this site 4 the truly gifted musicians discussed on this site

L4OATheOriginal said:

Straight up. You have a problem. My original post about MJ was actually a joke. If u saw the " ". So get off your Mighty Purple High Horse. And who exactly are these other "truly gifted musicians" that are actually worthy to be discussed on this site. Are you saying that MJ is any less talented? Don't even bother responding. You have showed your character through your previous two posts...so it's pretty obvious how your next post will be. God Bless you.

does he even play an instrument? didn't think so ...and yes i have a problem when it comes 2 all the MJ references on this site, go post on his site then cause i sure won't b there. i have long ago chosen which side of the fence i will b on and that's with the talented musician that socializes with adults and not some weirdo that likes dangling babies over a balcony and gets accused of child molestations charges TWICE!!

L4OATheOriginal said:

People like you are so entertaining with these arguments. So let me get this straight before I misquote you. It is your belief that a singer who doesn't play an instrument is NOT a musician?? You're a clown.

Actually the mouthing the solo thing isn't singing of the notes. The funny faces are due to the fact that the part of your brain that controls motor skills (such as guitar playing) is very close to the part that controls facial muscles and movement. As a guitarist my self I can say it's not really intentional.

that's why they seperate vocalist from musicians donkey damn at least madonna learned 2 play guitar which xpands her craft.

"Donkey"?! I've never been called that before. I gotta use that. That's a good one. I can't believe you brought up Madonna as an example. Michael does play keyboards in the studio. Just because he doesn't do it on the stage, doesn't mean he doesn't do it. Feel me? It's on his album credits that he does some arrangements.

But, we have got way off topic on this thread. Fun chattin' with ya!

His beat-boxing at a Musicology gig in 04 at MSG during Whole Lotta Love was awesome. He'd alternate between him & John Blackwell in a sort of beat boxing/drum duel. Can't say how I saw it but you can fill in the blanks..
