It isn't on youtube yet, and unfortunately you missed the premiere which is what the links led to. You missed it by around a half hour. Hopefullytheyll show it later in the day for people who missed it.

I just saw the video..And

confused

I love that he added 'The Rainbow Children' on the wall..lol' I WANT IT!

If only he released a video of that song!! It would be aweeeeeeeeeeesomeeeeeee! Haha

10 minutes too! AHHH...

'

But..

I must say though..I still wonder why Prince made this song? It's almost like he wanted to tell people. I am Prince, I can do whatever I want, whether you like it or not. It is almost like a country diss...lol

It's not like 'Rich Friends, Purple & Gold, or There Never Another Like Me...lol. Those songs I can not manage to listen to, I can listen to 'RNR' but it lacks soul and all of the things he talks about in the song. 'He believed in Rhythm and blues, and this thing called soul'. I don't feel it. It gets in my head easily, maybe cause it sounds smooth and it does not irk me. It also reminds me of 'Take Me With U, which of course is a classic! But it feels like Prince just wanted to tell us he can do all kind of music.

To each is own, but everytime I listen to it, or more especially watching the video..I could not help to think out of all the videos to do..He choose 'RNR'. He did not do one for extraloveable but he did a video for this. LOL

I think he purposely wants people to be divded and show he can do whatever he wants, and while we already know that. He pretty much confirms it in great details here.. lol

It's Button Therapy, Baby!

lol LOVE reading your reviews. lol

I don´t like this song and this is the first (but probably not the last) time I will have to skip on a new release, i.e. I am , for the first time ever, NOT going to buy an official release for the sake of completism. ( There´s already a bunch of CDs from previous years that I bought but couldn´t realy listen to for more than a couple of times).

That being said, now for something more positive:

1. Prince looks very healthy, fit and fine. Whatever he´s doing, he must be doing something right. I think from now on I should somehow try to become a very rich man and date girls half my age because I realize that that must be his secret recipe for eternal youth.

2. I don´t like the song but it´s not the first time that Prince releases a single that I don´t like, so it´s not the end of the world and some of the songs on Andy Allo´s album sound interesting, so maybe he is inspired again? There´s still hope. wink Songs like Yellow Gold should´ve been released on his own album but hey, it´s his decision. I´m just saying that I don´t take this weak song as an indication for his well of inspiration running dry. But yeah, he does seem very much out of touch.

" I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?"

He needs a proper manager, and in the worst possible way. Everything is done backwards. Sending clips to Funkenberry, for instance, promotes nothing because the only people who visit that site are people who are on this site.

Thanks, but that site is pretty horrible.

Look at the businessmodel. How much more in your face can they be?

Why did the video land there and not at a more `clean` place?

Pills and thrills and daffodils will kill... If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry.

Totally clocked it amongst other things! Now if that made a come back I don't think I'd get on with my daily chores. I remember I used to spend hours exploring about it. I was convinced I was actually talking to Prince one night! lol I'm such a doofus! Also it was amazing to see TRC art on the wall- It's my favourite album! wink P always got such amazingly beautiful women in his vids.

That site is horrible.

The video is fine.

The song... I just can't comprehend how anyone could enjoy this tune. I'd love to hear someone thoughtfully explain this. I'm not trying to be rude or condescend.

His voice is so very weak on this track. Very weird.

It's on Funkenberry now. I get jarring playback using an older version of Flash, unfortunately.

Seems like it was filmed when he still had the afro. I'm not sure, but I think the mix sounds a bit punchier and livelier than what we originally heard. I'll check later.

Really hate the organ part in the beginning and after the "nothing but the road ahead" though. lol

The song really has grown on me, for once it's getting a fair bit of airplay across Europe his adopted home.(wink)

Similarly the video is just right, nothing flash put in keeping with the track. Now all he needs to do is get it up on YouTube and educate... wink

If you were trying to promote something would you..

A. Use the most obscure European niche video web site ever?

B. Put it on YouTube?

lol

The Org is a sarcastic place, sometimes it's difficult to tell what's serious, or just plain CrAzY ...

I LOVE THE VIDEO - god he looks gorgeous in it. How can this man be 54 years old?? Doesn't he look adorable? I really hope this vid brings him back to popular mainstream again because it would be so great to be in a Prince-crazed world like the 80's (except I was born in the 80's so don't remember it but I'm sure it would have been fun).

I love his little smiles, uhh I think I'm in love again!!

As KCOOL would say: IT'S A MASTERPIECE!!!
pray Peace in the House of Prince.

Love the video and love the song. Nice.

Hope this is his new direction because it will attract people outside of the miniscule orger bubble echo chamber.
