Crimson & Clover is a really well done, guitar heavy cover. The other 2 I still haven't made my mind up on though. On thing needs to be said - I hope these don't get remixed and overproduced before we get an actual CD, because they are sonically perfect like they are (and I'm just listening to the radio rips). Colonized Mind Upload The evolution principle U see a rock on the shore - And say, "It's always been there" Download No responsibility Do what U want - Nobody cares Upload The master race idea Genetically disposed - 2 rule the world Download Future full of isolated Full of isolated - Boys and girls Upload The 2 party system The lesser of 2 dangers - Illusion of choice Download Their form of fascism Nothing really ever changes - U never had a voice If U look, U're sure gonna find Throughout mankind's history A Colonized Mind The one in power makes law Under which the colonized fall Without God, it's just the blind leading the blind Upload A joint venture record deal It's just another way another man can still sleep While he's sticking U with the bill Download A temporary acquisition of fleeting fame and fortune Nothing to leave in your will Upload A child with no father Download No respect for authority Upload A child with no mother (?) Download A hard time showing love If U look, U're sure gonna find Throughout mankind's history A Colonized Mind The one in power makes law Under which the colonized fall Without God, it's just the blind leading the blind It sounds great but those lyrics are terrible. Actually, they're not even lyrics but more a list of silly statements. I hope it gets better, lyric-wise. Actually if you really take time to understand what he's saying they're much more profound and better articulated than much of his other "semi-political" songs. Sounds like he's been reading Frantz Fanon. Change it one more time.. | |

Forever should have been given to a Christian pop act. Not a terrible piece of pop but hardly anything you'd hope to find on a good Prince album. A few serviceable Prince guitar lines but nothing to get excited about. Terrible, cheesy chorus.
Colonized Mind More moronic lyrics. Bland, and I don't mean Michael, tempo. Sounds like a cousin to his version of When Will We Be Paid. Decent guitar that might work better in a live environment where he could drop the lyrics and solo away. In other words, 90% of the song is disposable. Crimson and Clover. Probably the best of the lot. Too bad it's not his song. Ultimately a decent cover with a good solo. Would be a passable b-side. He must really be out of ideas if he's got to rely on covers for new material. Wall of Berlin I've said in the past I think the reason Prince has never made a rock album is because I don't think he knows how. This song is further proof of that theory. Might be better live where the lyrics and restricted studio sound would be dumped and the amps turned up. Like Colonized Mind, 90% of the song is disposable. No hard feelings. | |

Knowing how Prince values my opinion I gotta give it to him straight...
THIS IS SOME GOOD STUFF! I'm diggin' all of the tracks but Colonized Mind is lyricallly and sonically brilliant! It's one of those songs that represents what I love most about Prince's unique style of artistic expression. Well done Mr. Nelson...well done indeed.  Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

If Prince had done the EXACT same thing (sudden announcement with songs live on radio) with the songs "Planet Earth", "Lion of Judah", and "Chelsea Rodgers", U would have all been creamin'... Don't even try 2 deny it. [Edited 12/18/08 13:42pm] Umm no. I heard the leaked Planet Earth and thought it sucked. I listened to the official release, and bought it like a good fan, forced myself to listen to it 3 times. It still sucked. Plant Earth = 
I'm not feeling Crimson & Clover, I like Colonized Mind. Haven't bothered to listen to the other two yet. I'm busy cleaning.  | |

We heard a preview cover of Crimson and Clover at the NY show. His style of rendition is better than the original. Love the guitar and love his vocals.
I believe he did Colonized mind at the NY show. It rocks! Bob Dylan? Wall of Berlin..? What's his fascination with this wall? The song is good tho. 4ever. Love that track..

Ok, I've changed my mind a little about 4ever... it's growing on me. Quite a lot. Builds beautifully and has tonnes of minute Princely nurdlings in the mix that make you smile.
That Crimson and Clover cover still should only be a live thing... it's pointless him having a vault of music if he's going to release other people's work. So pointless, in fact, he should dump it... I've got some spare room on my cellar if he's looking for a space. Both Wall of Berlin and Colonized Mind are becoming goodly favourites. Colonized Mind, especially, is nicely clever, without alienating, and is definitely going into one of my lesson plans for next year! | |
