This will not be a release.

It's Prince saying it wants to play a 25 min version at the next concert...which he may or may not do.

People let their hopes get in the way of what's written. Still, it's not entirely everyone's fault...the statement is written, as is everything by Prince, to be perceived in a number of ways. Remember, he doesn't say "released" he says something vague like "unleashed."

[Edited 3/4/11 10:33am]

yep.. the title of the article says it all.

So we *think* he's talking about doinga 25 min version of the song at some point in the future... not that he's releasing a 25 minute live version that was recorded some time ago.

Well that kinda sucks. I'll just stick to my iPod if I wanna hear this song and just wait and see what happens.

Also I like Dr FB, he seems like a cool person and very reliable, but unless he purposely makes his blog posts vague then he really needs to practice writing better. The grammar, just everything about how he posts sometimes just upsets me.

gaahhh i want to hear this so bad!

top 5 favorite unreleased prince tracks. EASILY.

It's semi-official, so it has to be spoken in Assholish.

This is the best news I have heard in ages. Just when I thought I couldn't love Prince any more than I already do.

Mr. Nelson - you are the man and don't let ANYONE ever tell you otherwise!

baby don't stop the groove, extra loveable people tell yo' body what to do....

extra loveable beat tell...

And it's "hippy don't stop the groove"....

MFer don't even know the lyrics.

I don't believe a word. And if it's true, most probably we won't hear it. And if it's true and we are allowed to hear it, it'll be a mountain of crap like his reworking of In a large room with no light.

So, I can't be excited at all. Just more bullshit from Prince and the Doc.

i agree with you... until it's downloaded on my computer, it ain't happenin.... why not release some other stuff from the vault, anyway?? some things we've never heard. It's not like no one hasn't heard the 5 or 6 different versions of this boot anyway... let's hear something new... even if it's old

OK, I'd like to think this is true about this extra long version being released...cause I'm so ready for something new to talk about!! So I trust it make come about since Dr. Funkenberry says it, he is usually pretty reliable. Here's to keeping my fingers crossed, Prince is definately extralovable! C'moon on down to Chicago or MPLS please PRINCE!!

Cool. Njum njum

Great song, no doubt. Love to see the orginal make it out there. It's classic. Hey Dez, don't you like my band... ha...

Be nice to have another Crystal Ball type album, with the songs he left out. "Electric Intercourse, Old Friends.. (the first one), Extra Loveable, Large Room.., Moonbeam Levels etc.. Wouldn't mind if he threw in the Crucial version with the horns.. That synth version he put on Crystal Ball was weak. Maybe he didn't want to pay royalties to Eric or Atlanta, who knows. Come on Prince, what you waiting on.. People have grandchildren already..

Bunch of negativity as usual....guess some of y'all didn't have your plus sign today...

You could give some of these people the combination to the Vault and they'd bitch about the choice of numbers in it!

What -exactly- gives you the impression that anyone who has not liked his recent material up to this point should expect to like it in the future?

People who defend Prince and eat all the shit he feeds you ass-to-mouth trip me out. Just because OTHER PEOPLE don't like your poor wittle Princey's weco'ds, you're gonna talk shit.

On the other side, folks'd be trying to finding some "meaning" in it.

I was just commenting about the negativity Militant spoke of. If I hit a nerve then that's your own personal issue.

Do you mean like addressing the purple elephant in the room size question...why Prince is supposedly...suddenly...in some least little bit...interested...in unleashing some 25 minute sembelance of an outtake song from his 1999...the album. Not the year... very (S E C U L A R) days?

Yeah and I was just commenting about your hypocritical and condescending reply to Militant's drivel. If I need to type slower for you, I can because I'm a nice guy.

The original is a very cool song. Cool sexy cover video with big boob girl. Cool to hear Prince has a live 25 minute live version.

Overall this is very cool all around.

Did I mention I like the cover with the big boobed girl.

My thoughts on this have turned from exitement, to scepticism, to could not care less, i'm lying of course.

Goodnight.

Really hoping the sceptics and bitter bugs will be wrong just once...just once...

Sadly, re-reading the post and Dr F's words, I'm not sure this will be that time

Worse case scenario, it actually happens, but it's a 25 min version with Shelby on lead vocal.

Scepticism is a virtue, and quite necessary for human survival actually.
