stillwaiting	Fake Bootleg, or Legit release? Not sure what to make of this. I'm 99.5% sure this is a fake, and a very expensive fake it is. Can't be sure the image made it to the post, so here is the link: PRINCE The Artist Who Loved Us http://www.ebay.com/itm/P...27cf7b297d $400 is a bit expensive, even if it were legit.

Oh but guys it says "Mega rare", it has to be legit. You can't put those words on E-bay if it isn't true lol

I just wonder what "Too sexy" and "words to my Japanese friends" is.

Making love and music are the only things worth fighting for.

mega rare doesn't mean official, it just means it's rarity is mega. if it was official it would say "100% official - not a bootleg or CDR"

too sexy is a sheila e b side (it had nothing to do with prince), and the words to my japanese friends is likely to be the syndicate 7"

Syndicate was a promotional release connected with Prince's seventh album Purple Rain (the first album to be credited to Prince and the Revolution), although the only musical track to be included on the single was Another Lonely Christmas, which was not included on the album.

The b-side contains seven short messages by Prince, Apollonia and Sheila E. designed to be played by radio stations before their music. Prince introducing Purple Rain is an audio snippet from the movie Purple Rain. The single was intended purely for radio stations, and has a "not for sale" message on the label.
