Funny, because you were pitiable from the time you made your initial little unwarranted comment. I usually hate smart alecs, but I chose to go a different route with you, but apparently you can't take your own medicine. And if your avatar resembles you in any way, then you're already on that fast track to elderly senility. Alas, there's always a jerk in every thread, and why you all can't stay away is beyond me. Now, back to our regularly scheduled topic...


LOL You're attacking an AVATAR? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA


No, simpleton. And who's attacking? You came into my thread and decided to be an asshole. You were given it back and called on it by several. Move along now, troll.

Enough girls! You're both pretty. Sheesh!


LMAO! Oh, it's over. It's just that some people every once in a while think they know it all, and need to be reminded differently.

The Foo Fighters have b-side covers of both Drive Me Wild and Darling Nikki, but not Nasty Girl.

Girls Club, Nuthin’ Nyce, SND Players Club... to name a few obscure groups.

It was meant to be on Apollonia 6's album, along with "Manic Monday", "Take Me With U", and "Glamorous Life". We know where those songs ended up. You can hear Brenda's voice on "Manic Monday" was well.


Damn, am I glad those songs did not end up on Apollonia 6's album!



It would have been cool if he put that longer bit version on his album and the edit on A6's album

A also wish he would have kept Manic Monday, as a Prince & the Revolution with A6 as back up.

Yes! I remember hearing "17 Days" on the radio!


Me too.

Anyone else like Living Colour's cover of 17 Days? It was a b-side on their Auslander CD-Single. The melody is played on guitar. Very cool.


Yep, IMHO it's one of only 2 Prince covers which are jus as good or possibly even better then the original. The other one is the Foo's Darling Nikki. Anyone liking the 17 days cover should definately check out The Family Stand, I actually (re)discovered them through a description of the 17 days cover....

That is a sad and sweet look on Prince's face. That's how I feel most of the time. cool

You create your own reality. Be happy. There's no honor in being a glum emo clone all the time.

And how can someone NOT be happy listening to



Yes I remember that song from my Grade 8 camp along with Knock 3 Times, the bus didn't have a radio and we were forced to listen to "Dawns greatest hits featuring Tony Orlando" for the whole 4 hours (The tape had 7 songs!!!!). Having 17 Days on auto repeat would be much better.
So what are u going 2 do? R u just gonna sit there and watch? I'm not gonna stop until the war is over. Its gonna take a long time

I'm actually just listening to this early Prince jam and it is becoming one of my faves by him. All these years and I'm just listening to it. I've read that it was actually meant for V6, and you can hear Brenda singing backup. It's one of my fave B-sides, for sure.


"17 Days (the rain will come down, then U will have 2 choose. If U believe, look 2 the dawn and U shall never lose)"



Hasn't everyone experienced the sentiments of 17 days at least once in their lifetime?

Cute photo, reminds me.

One of the best B-Sides from Prince. This song would have been perfect 4 'Purple Rain' film and album.
