A friend of mine, Turi, is looking for a high quality picture of Prince in a yellow jump suit. I told him about the suit from 1986, but he specifically noted the 1991 era (MTV "Gett Off"). I'm not sure if he necessarly wants a pic from the broadcast, but rather a pic of Prince in that particular suit. He's a graphic designer, and I can only imagine what he's doing with it. haha I told him I'd ask here.

The ass-less britches suit? Surely you jest?

Only the Nike symbol, obviously a secret endorsement deal with Nike to subliminally sell a lot of sneakers. Nike's sales of yellow runners rose 30% in each town that the Act I tour stopped in. They later made custom sneakers for Prince when his hips started to give out on him.

nice pictures in this thread Prince in fine yellow thanks for the picks I like them.

One of Prince's worst televised performances. A lip-syncing disaster.

Was it? I had no idea it was a lip synch, i have never seen the "performance."

It is funny that Prince goes on about being against lip synching and such. He has lip syched quite a few performances in his career. (tv wise).

I'm pretty sure his vocals weren't lip-synced, but live. There's no way they could re-enact that part at the beginning when the mic almost popped him in the mouth.

I just watched it online and Prince's vocal comes in before he's even near the mic. He also stops lip-syncing after the mouth bump, but vocals continue. The track was obviously recorded live prior to the actual performance. Arsenio's voice is in sync with the clip, so it's not a case of the sound being screwed up on the video.

Prince's Gett Off is a live performance. There are certain uploads on the net that have the vocals off. But a proper upload will show the vocals right when he reaches the mic and when his clothes get caught on the mic his voice gets lower as he is away from the mic and it gets loud when he is near the mic again.

ps watched the version you are talking about on line and the voice track is off. I know there are good versions out there.

I see the light now. Thanks for the correction. Weird that the vid I watched had Arsenio's voice OK, but Prince's was way off. I guess it is a live performance after all.

I was wondering how long it would take before you would notice that.

It was nice of Prince to shave his ass for the occasion.
