I knew you'd be happy to hear that since you mentioned not to long ago that "Dance 4 Me" was one of your favorites off that cd. Looks like some overseas fans are about to get"sanctified!..have mercy"lol

I see chu'ch fans waving, chu'ch ladies with over-the-top chu'ch hats on, with their hands clapping, then raising them in the air, yelling "Amen" , "Hallelujah and "Welllll" while the preacher is at the pulpit doing his regular, Sunday, foot-stomping chu'ch dance, as the chu'ch ladies pass around the plate requesting donations for the monthly chu'ch dinner and a new wheelchair for Sista Rosa; then the chu'ch ladies turn to each other and start gossiping about what the other chu'ch members are wearing lol Sound familiar don't it Hatrina? Just like Aunty, Grandma and them used to do... lol

no no no! Correction!

I've NEVER said, "It's one of..."

What I SAID was..."It's the ONLY song that I liked off the WHOLE damn trilogy and I repeated that every chance I got!" I just had to correct that for the record! wink

As for the rest of your comment...Yes! Yes! Yes! It sounds familiar! Prince should call US (you and I) for extras in the video! Hallelujah! headbang

As for extras... lol uh no, that's okay, that's kind of reaching, but I'm not mad at you. lol Now, if asked for ideas for the video, well, then that would not be a problem. biggrin thumbs up!

Prince is about to throw a mutiny overseas. Not only is he about to do 3 shows in Monaco, 2 in 1 night August 13th and 1 August 16th, respectively, but he has bigger plans in the mix.

We have learned exclusively that Prince’s next single will be “Dance 4 me” and there is going to be a major push in Europe. We hear there also be will be a remix to “Dance 4 Me” as well. Oh heaven yes! With the push overseas, could that mean some moreconcert dates over there? We are hearing rumors but nothing concrete.

I also heard something about his latest cd Lotusflow3r which was released in the States via Target MAY be getting a release overseas as well. Speculation right now but just keeping you locked in to all things paisley.

.

You know when I have further info, I will let you know. Until then, just pick up them maracas n shake!-Dr.FB

UPDATE: Forgot to add no word yet on a “Dance 4 Me” video. Will let you if I hear anything.

No problem. It will be interesting to see how the video plays out for that track, if he decides to do one or releases the remix to that track in the U.S

This is exciting news but what I wanna know is will the song be released as a single here in the U.S.? This song needs to be pushed hard here too. Have a re-release or something like that. People here need to hear Dance 4 Me. Such a kickass song.
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

Have there been any releases off lotusflow3r at all - promo singles, samplers etc for radio stations?

I like when prince said on Tavis Smiley that he didn't understand why radio wasn't playing anything off the set - maybe because he expects radio to pay for the cds first?

YEAAAAAHHHH!!!!!

My favourite off of MPLS

Now what would be really great since a certain someone is open to ideas(hint hint)would be a maxi single including the Acappella in wav quality on Lotusflow3r.com

That way you could have another remix contest like with Musicology. With that Acappella floating around it's sure to end up in the clubs.

A kick ass video wouldn't be bad but mostly I'm happy for singles with non album tracks again

very good song, only I am not sure how the "hallelujah" words fit to radio and clubs (Prince is not recognized as a cospel funk singer in Europe lol ). if the line will be erased for the remix I would expect it to be nice and even successful single

I Hope a more upbeat remix will be released as a single.
The album version of 'Dance 4 me' will not be succesful in the hitparades.

and I really don't know what the effect of 'Hallelujah words' are, I'm curious.

There was a song called Hallelujah at number one (and two other chart positions simultaneously by other artists) just months ago in the UK, so not a huge problem, methinks.

It's also about the way the word 'Hallelujah' is used and expressed in a song.
I remember 'Hard Rock Hallelujah' from Lordi..... not great for radio air play wink

It'd be nice if he'd release the album overseas first sad

I saw the Lotusflower CD in all the stores in Belgium and Italy already. Whether they were officially released her or not - they are readily available.

Those are imports.
If the album gets a proper release, then the record company will make promotion and the album gets reviews in magazines.
The problem with such a late release is, that every hardcore fan already owns it.

And the imports must have been arranged on a large scale as it was not just the occasional CD here and there but real supply amouts in the major chains.

Love the song but it'll tank as usual, despite remixes and a video, don't really see the point in releasing a first single half a year after the album came out.

How come this post isn't worthy of front page news status?

I would've thought it's more relevant to Prince than Wendy & Lisa's new video!

A press conference by prince or a link to the official press release of the record company / the distributor that'll release the album in europe would be helpful.

If he does, I won't be expecting 21nights again. No free CD to pique interest, or cheapass £31.21 tickets this time around to get bums on seats, and you know i'd be fine with that. I liked ONA tour better anyway.

Getting tickets might be a problem, i'm not joining his shoddy site that's for sure.

There's a radio edit? Hmm. Wonder how it differs from the album version. Have you heard it?

I'm listening to the radio edit right now.

The arrangement is snappier, and the piano seems a little louder in the mix. It's definately a better arrangement for radio. It doesn't have any of the "breakdowns" that the album version does.

Definately a hit.
