2020 appreciation

Great unreleased track this. It was recorded sometime in the first half of 1995, and was included on an early configuration of Emancipation which dates to July '95.

Nice simple keyboard sound with additional voice by Mayte.

Anyone like this song?

2020

The year is 2020
And in the club - Love4OneAnother
Students dance 2 the heartbeat of the drum

3000 or more dance on the dance floor
Same aesthetics - everyone
Taste the color, smell the fun

The force of nature is what brought us here
The walls between us soon all disappear
The year is 2020 and there's no more fear

Can U see this? (Mm hmm)
Peace and happy people
(Mm hmm)

Lyrics-dtt.

Oh you must nursev, i think you would like it very much.

It is on the 'Work It 2.0' bootleg, Emancipation Secret Chapter, and maybe others.

I like the tune, except maybe Mayte's whispery contribution. She kinda sounds like a hypnotized cult member.

It has the word 'Students' in it. Reason enough to dislike it.

First heard this over a year ago and liked it instantly. It's got a melancholy futuristic vibe going on. I can Prince & Mayte at a rave and everyone is dancing but them and they're witnessing it all but still apart from it. Would have been a cool video segment for a larger project.

When eye go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all heart up in the house but when eye log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming!

works alright as maybe an interlude or intro piece, but I don't consider it much of a song.
