Try not comin to the org and going without anything from Prince til the album drops and see if u feel the same way then. Maybe u need to go through a withdrawal lol

I am not excited either.. every time I build up a prince cd in my mind.. usually the actual cd never really turns out that good.. so I guess i'll just hear it when i hear it, and hopefully find a track or two worth keeping.

... maybe you should listen to the new songs before formulating that opinion?

I agree. I wasn't that excited about the new album either before listening to the new songs but now i can't wait. To the OP, you should give the new songs a chance, they're worth a listen.

I couldn't agree with you more. I would understand that comment if the OP had heard the new songs and wasn't feeling it but he or she hasn't even heard any of this stuff so I don't feel sorry for the OP at all. As you said Cinnamon234, listen to the new songs and judge them for yourself.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

MayB your just maturing and realise that a new album is just a piece of plastic but sometimes whats on that plastic can touch us, which is the magic that we all yearn, and like all children can tell U, if you seek magic U will never find it .It has 2 find U.
And children are worth getting excited about, not plastic

You know I am 38 and am LONG past the days where I am excited about any new album by anyone. However, I have to admit, after hearing those new tracks the other day I am a little stoked...I love when he rocks out heavy on guitar...um My Guitar Gently Weeps, from RRHOF anyone??? But honestly, the only way i keep in the loop is checking out this website, if it wasn't for this there is no way I would even know what the heck is going on in the world of Prince music.

I nearly peed myself when he debuted those songs on the radio so I would have to say I can't wait to hear the rest! wink

I agree. I wish somebody would get on promotion for him. If things are handled the right way he could have a hit or two on his hands.

Please, Prince does not need promotion.
If he ever releases another great song it will be everywhere instantly.

If he keeps releasing what he releases now a days, they will be appropriately admired by the few fams here, and disappear into the back pages of Prince music along with everything else he has released after his peak.

I'm not saying any of the new songs are truly "great", but CM and the C&C cover are pretty darn good, and maybe some people who don't frequent the org or go searching for Prince news on the web would like them too. shrug

Well I 4 1 think it's great ur not looking forward 2 it nor listening 2 the new songs, Simply because if it is good youll appreciate it much more with lower expectations...instead of listening 2 all the Fam buzz, if u did ull have much higher expectations...and chances are be more dissapointed nod
Everybody's looking 4 the ladder
Everybody wants salvation of the soul
The steps U take are no easy road
But the reward is great
