Prince Guest Stars in New Gayngs Video (Kinda)

Prince Guest Stars in New Gayngs Video (Kinda)

The soft-rock group also take on George Michael's "One More Try"





Prince  Guest Stars in New Gayngs Video (Kinda)

Recorded at a prom-themed...ty in May, this performance clip for slow jam mavens Gayngs' "The Last Prom on Earth" is highlighted by a special appearance from none other than Prince himself. While the clip captures the Purple One nodding his bowler cap in the wings with a guitar slung around his shoulder (pictured above), he doesn't actually come up to play with the band. Which is a shame, because this song is ripe for a "Purple Rain"-style solo.

Still, the tune grooves like prime R&B and features some nifty AutoTune work from Bon Iver's Justin Vernon. Check out upcoming Gayngs dates, and watch the video below or at Pitchfork.tv.

In other Gayngs news, they'll play "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" on October 4. The crew also recently covered George Michael's 1988 smash ballad "One More Try" with Har Mar Superstar. That's after the jump as well (via Stereogum):

obviously not a fan of that whole style of music.

apparently they really dug 10cc's "i'm not in love" and decided to make a whole album based on that style.

i dig it.
