No. Not openly anyway. This odd, staggered distribution method is going to guarantee that most all US fans will be downloading it free and quite possibly not buying it in stores. Poor planning, unless store copies have an extra disc, or at the very least, extra tracks. I'll still be buying it from a brick-and-mortar if/when it happens, but obviously I'm not in the majority. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Lol!! That commercial is hilarious. And unfortunately, the music's better than what was on MPLSound. | |

It's amazing that we're less than a week out from a new Prince album and not one note has been heard by anyone (except, supposedly, a smattering of select magazine journalists). Is this unprecedented?
I'm not just talking about leaks, BTW, I'm talking about no lead single or even snippet (even NEWS and LF had those...).
It's kinda good tho - lately they've lowered my expectations - the LF snippets, Guitar and PE, Te Amo Corazon, all kinda brought down the album for me (altho with 3121 we had BS and Fury to compensate...).
Hopefullly, it's a good sign, then...

I'm expecting this album not to be so great. I didn't like the new song, and besides free giveaways are always shit. Why let fans pay money for a damn lotus website then later giveaway stuff..??
I guess we already paid. Ha! Prince I will always miss and love U. | |

That would actually be a good thing these days.. If it is worth buying i'll be first in line.. but if the going rate is that it's gonna be a downloader.

I remember Prince sent his lawyers after Fancy Ray and company for that commercial. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

Sorry, I'm the one who missed it. My bad. | |

Maybe Jakeasaurus could enlighten us if he really heard the cd... | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
No. It's stock music like I said before. Jake hasn't heard shit anyways. | |

Gohi, I believe Marco81 may have had his tounge firmly planted in his cheek on that last post... | |

Right? The youtube ad. Sounded pretty real to me. Although I wouldn't place money that the music in the Mirror ad is not him, either. I'll be happy if that's the direction the album skews in. The mix sounds a bit more classic P than MPLSound did. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
I could go either way on the Mirror ad. Would be great it if was him, and there's no reason to believe it's not, unless someone can produce this supposed Garageband loop, as I'm sure they've got access to the music on the album and clearance to promote it. | |

Here's that one snippet: http://www.youtube.com/wa...SsW4olr4TM
I like it! | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
yea i want proof, damn it! i swear i can hear Prince say "yeah..." at the end of the Mirror clip, right after the red Daily Mirror logo flashes on the screen. | |

I'll buy it, too.
But given the fact that we have no US release date, it's a lead pipe cinch I'll download it from somewhere this week. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

It doesn't even sound like the production of the other clip. It's joke funk music. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
but you don't know for sure. so what's the difference between your assertion and what you were calling Jakasaurus on in the previous thread? you've already said that you might be wrong, but now you're back to thinking it's stock audio. based on what?
| |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
Based on the fact that I've heard it before as well as someone else has.
| |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
Well the fact that it appears in a commercial for a Prince album given away with newspapers would be pretty strong evidence in the face of no one being able to come up with any other source for it.
As I said, I'm split on it, it could go either way, but without another clip using it, there is no evidence that it isn't him, considering it's used in an ad promoting his product. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
Ok, i just listened to it. I would be willing to bet 65 pence that is indeed Prince. Why wouldn't they play a clip of the product they are advertising? it would seem weirder to me if they used a stock sound especially if they have access to the real deal. The classic Prince sound has been copied so much that Its easy to feel you have heard that before lol. Either way, i like it, and like the sound on the previous ad. They both just sounds livelier than MplSound to me, or is it just the eternal optimist in me when it comes to new Prince music. | |

Excuse me if I posted in the wrong place before. I don't know why I can't start my own post, but yeah, I am excited about 20Ten and have a feeling it will be great. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
Based on MPLSound and the 3 songs he gave us after it, I doubt this. I hope I will like a few tracks. | |
- E-mail - orgNote - ![]() |
I am 100% positive it's not a GarageBand loop
edit: Gohi, when did you turn into such a prick? [Edited 7/4/10 10:49am] | |
