Take your War on Christianity to P&R!

How arrogant that this person assumes that the only non-existent, mythical deity that the previous poster could be referring to is a non-existent, mythical Christian deity. Just to be clear, all of the major world religions feature a non-existent mythical deity, they are all different non-existent mythical deities, and some of us are smart enough to realize that none of them exist. Unfortunately they are referred to a lot here, and often enough by Prince himself. That makes it a subject for discussion. But note that the God squad starts such discussions by mentioning non-existent mythical deities in the first place. One would do well to read a little Richard Dawkins before weighing in though.

Well, Vitriol is participating in the War on Christianity! If he moves over to the War on Islam, I'll let the Muslims fight that one!

Why would I want to read a book by the guy that hosted "Family Feud"?!?

Sorry, --- but you are wrong:

The new font is not the original PR font...

[img:$uid]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v67/ecnirp2004/PurpleRainDifferentFont.jpg[/img:$uid]

Those 2 fonts are different..

.

You're right, dance!

The original has a lot more edge and rigitity.

This latest one is a bit flat and flaccid.

Prost!

This is seriously awesome news!! New Prince music on the radio again, takes me back!!! Hope I hear it soon. PRINCE IS BACK!!!

It's been on the radio for weeks, where've you been

And it being released on a tiny euro-dance label, probably isn't going to have the funds behind it to get it played all over the US.

As a fan, I guess I'm a little disappointed that this isn't some new-style direction from Prince that's going to blow me away...

But having said that, this is a decent pop tune that I'm starting to find myself humming, and as a song intended for radio-play, I think it does the job. The question is, whether or not the song is considered 'retro' or 'same old, same old'.

It kind of reminds me of when I first heard The Most Beautiful Girl In The World and thought; how bland, what the hell's he thinking? Even during its reign in the charts I felt it was a cop-out aimed squarely at the lurve market. Looking back though, it's a pretty solid piece.

It'll be interesting to hear what non-fans think of the new song once it starts (hopefully) getting played a bit more. We can see if Prince's faith in the song is justified.

Where the frick are all these 'new' prince pictures coming from? I've seen so many on here and on various blogs these past weeks that it's just rediculous. Who's posting them and where? Or are they all from a new tourbook? Was there one for the chicago shows perhaps?

Yep.

It didnt have any airplay on german radios so far afaik.

The song is a mediocre song to me, nothing special, 5/10 as its best.

There are a quadrillion other Prince songs that might have been better for a single release imo.

Let me ask - what new-style direction is there left for Prince to take? With the possible exception of Western Swing and Speed Metal, I think Prince has explored pretty much every direction there is to take.

We don't know! Hence the term 'new'. I don't recall saying 'I Wish he'd try a genre someone else has done before'. That's the thing about new things; you're unaware of them until they first appear.

When you discover it be sure to let us know what to expect.

Wake me up wheh the song is over.
