Well, around 2004-2008, a lot of numb nutz found their way here. And were never put in checks by the elders who resided here as guardians of the purple.. "Climb in my fur." | |

Financially, for me this year, he may aswell play on the moon. But I could stretch to a boxset of remasters. More chance of him playing on the moon than seeing that though. | |

Not me, I just bitch about simon cowell, shit pop, my shifts, litter, car parking and kcool. And tipping. Either charge the right fucking price to pay your staff fully or fuck off. In these times just be grateful you have customers. I'm British by the way. | |

2013 might be big, but probably not for Prince...
I think his songwriting, as demonstrated on RnR Love Affair, is more lacklustre than ever (and the number of mixes of this song suggests that he truly believes this is a great tune - where's the quality control or a sense of objectivity?). He really needs to check out artists like Coldplay, Lana del Rey and others who seem far superior at the songwriting game. Like them or not, their best songs are full of drama, emotion, twists and turns. And in the end, it's about the songs and melodies, not the "technical skills" or musicianship. Prince probably considers himself superior to my two examples here, but they don't aim at being multiinstrumentalists or becoming experts at any instrument - you don't need that to be a great songwriter (no better example than McCartney/Lennon). Their focus is on the songs. Prince lost that focus or dedication somewhere along the line. And that's why 2013 won't be so great for him...

Music isn't objective. That's where your post goes wrong. | |

Well Per, you know music consumption is all just a matter of taste and subjectivity. I can't sit through even one song by Coldplay or Lana, much less an entire album, as they bore me to tears. Just like there are certain Prince songs I can't bring myself to listen to (Temptation, Annie Christian, Jughead, Arrogance/The Flow, Another Like Me, Cause & Effect, etc). The list goes on. However, I can't really make a blanket statement about his talent because certain songs don't move me. Prince has always been inconsistent to my particular musical taste. There are things that grab me, there are things I detest, and there are things that just plain bore me. But he has always been his own quality control for better and for worse, which is something one just has to accept to be a Prince fan. "That's when stars collide. When there's space for what u want, and ur heart is open wide." | |

It is horrible to say maybe, but I yawn at this whole "2013 will be big" thing. I am afraid we'll just get another "trying to please 'em all" release like we've had so many before. A few ballads, a few rock songs, an "experimental" cut, and one or two funky tunes that don't really hit hard.
So the new album better be raw, wild, experimental and very funky. And/Or have extreme interesting production techniques. Otherwise I am not interested anymore, I'm afraid. Prince's albums have been too safe/MOR for my taste for a long time now, bar one or two songs on each album maybe. And the lyrics are mostly horrible or uninteresting these days.
I am starting to get in the camp of the people who think current Prince is just a bad impersonator of the Real Deal we were accustomed to in the eighties. My believe in his abilities are waning, to be honest.
I might cheer up when I actually hear the new album, but I fail to get excited at this point. RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time... | |

100 % agree ! "The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves. And wiser people so full of doubts" (Bertrand Russell 1872-1972) | |

I just want music that rocks and/or funks hard, something with balls and power. Something REAL from his soul or his groins. RIP Prince: thank U 4 a funky Time... | |
