hello all, I've already played "Xenophobia" and "lets go crazy" at my high school talent show. Now they want me to play for the whole school at career day. So what prince song suggestions do you have for me to play. and in march when i play i will try to record it and post it for you all.
Thanks.

Jack U Off,Sexy Motherfucker, Head, Come, or Sister all seem like safe choices.

'Raspberry beret'

I was even thinking of gett off, i could get away with that, but then i would go into the medley that you see in the rave dvd (so i can test my knew guitar keyboard.
but i also wanted something i could really dance to like Alphebet St.
So far i'm pretty sure I want to end it with the everlasting now.
KEEP THEM COMING!!!

okay definetely do "Get off"!!!

Hi, Starmist7... nice to see you.

I agree... "Get Off", is a definite. My best friends always has to break it down (way down) when she hears this song... just like Diamonds and Pearls. (Just like them)

Hi Free!!!

Billy Jack Bitch!

Oh, and there are some nasty versions of "Gett Off"- Like Live in LA, A house mix, others.

Days of Wild!

You say, in high school, what are you doing playing Prince in h.s.? Some of your classmates all still identify and get off to his music and not more with those of your age?
Not that he's still not bad ass to me, but I'm around his age. Though thats real cool if you do.

Jem said:

You could? Shoot, wish I'd gone to your high school

hey Jem,im only 18 over here in Australia . . .no1 here even knows P still makes music,hehe let alone teenagers
im the only teenager i know who likes or even knows anything about Prince,its great

People in my school, like every school, say they don't like prince. But when i bust out one of his songs, and do the splits and the whole 9 yards, they love it. I think its just that they don't know prince as well as they think they do. the only thing in there head they have of prince is the "when doves cry" video and princes gett off performance with his ass cheeks showing. They loved Xenophobia, and when they found out it was prince THEY gained more respect for the ARTIST!!!

You go Jem. Do whatever U feel comfortable with and good luck.

Well, you could do a song by one of Prince's protogee bands.

How about "After High School" by the time? It's upbeat and fun, plus it's not really difficult to play.

You gotta do Pussy Control...give your classmates some advice on life.

man...wish i got that much props when i wuz in hi school...folks knew i dug p, but all they'd ask me is crap like "is he gay?"

Well, if i tried to start out playing prince, people would probably respond differently. But i used to be really into players like steve vai, and i did a lot of technical stuff. I play alot of jazz now, and so when people hear me rave about prince they say, "well there must be more to prince." Just that will put a smile to my face for a long time.

Anyways i was thinking of doing a real funky version of kiss, with sax solos and such, WHAT DO YOU THINK?

don't play anything...what r u now a poser? i would b embarrased 2 see ANYONE try 2 play like Prince

WhiteMansion said:

Is Prince a poser trying to play music like Sly Stone, James Brown, and Stevie Wonder? Is he really a poser now that he is performs cover after cover on record and on tour? What a stupid reply.

WhiteMansion said:

that isn't very nice,

WhiteMansion, I've got a lot of my own stuff, but I'll have the rest of my life to play that. I'm just paying my respects.
Plus The NPG band is something I want to shoot for and join.
So let me hear your stuff before you start talking smack.
Hears some words for you:

"You wanna know why my voice is so clear, because I don't got smack, in my brain."-prince (Eye No)

How many instruments do you play?

heeey U, whatcha gonna do after HI SCHOOL (HI SCHOOL!)

Definitely do P. Control or SexyMF. You want your performance to be a memorable one, don't you??

FirstAvenue said:
