when and where did they play Computer Blue?

i think it's a mistake by the reporter. i've checked all setlists for this year on princevault

and computer blue isn't on any of them. seriously hoping he will start playing it again in

the near future because it would fit the setlist and be a great way to roar on the guitar guitar

and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

I find it odd how he's a devoted JW and how he doesn't listen to any of his songs that have curse words in them and towards the end of the interview he says "Hell, no". That to me was a bit surprising.

Why? Hell is not a curse word, it's the home of satan and his demons, and the future eternal home of those God decides to send there for their sins, and those who don't believe in His son Jesus Christ.

Why? Hell is not a curse word, it's the fiery home of satan and his demons, and the future eternal home of those God decides to send there for their sins, and those who don't believe in His son Jesus Christ.

It is considered a curse word by some and JWs don't believe in Hell.

Now that, I don't understand. JWs live by the Bible don't they, and Hell is clearly written and spoken about therein, so I don't get how they don't believe in Hell if they believe in God and the Bible?

Wow, in that pic he really reminds me of Jimi Hendrix.

You spelled "Little Richard" wrong.

Well, Little Richard was a inspiration on Jimi Hendrix.

Although Prince has made bullshit denials of it because Prince wants to be viewed as original, the Jimi inspration on Prince has been pretty obvious to Jimi Hendrix fans, not only musically, theme, image, look, style. Hair, mustashe, clothes with frilly shirts.

Paisely flowery clothes.

Even a shirt with eyeballs on it.

Etc.

Thanks for posting Serpan!


Interesting interview, seriously doubt that Prince does not own a mobile phone, just must not be an i-phone. Just wish we could have watched the interview, just to really get the tone of what was serious and what was not.



Wonder why Andy wasn't mentioned as an artist he listens to, surely you would always push for those on your own label??

[Edited 7/3/13 18:55pm]



I also thought it was interesting he didn't mention Andy as an artist he listens too. Guess she's really left/been dropped from P land....

Overall ok interview, don't think we learned anything new though. Is it just me or do him and Julia sound very close...wondering if she's his girlfriend.

Even when he plays Guitar live, he will change the "if not, U can go 2 hell" line into: "U can go 2...oh oh!"

It is one of the better interviews, kudos to the journalist for remembering so much without recording device or notebook. Quite observant and revealing actually about how he operates and thinks, confirms the stories about him inadvertently.

Being such an obsessed musician, I am not surprised or fussed that he communicates in complicated ways. I sort of get him. The sun is him, the energy comes from him. The 3EG is his creation. To be creative he needs to disconnect from the mundane. Just hope he doesn't think of himself as sacred.

The 3EG come across in interviews like a bunch of school girls, giggling.

He is an attractive man who doesn't actually need any of these photo enhancements and heavy makeup.

Prince's right hand on his heart.. isn't that the first time we are seeing him posing like that.. ?

The front / cover pic makes him look like Jimi Hendrix, imo.

.....on purpose!

Ick, I can't stomach all the photoshopping and heavy makeup anymore... eek

I wonder why he bothers to give interviews sometimes.

lol I see more of a Jimi Hendrix resemblance, not a Black Jesus, although I really don't know what a Black Jesus would look like, since I've never seen the real Jesus anyhow, but I have seen Jimi Hendrix. lol

I was thinking the same thing. I can't remember ever feeling that way about a Prince pic. I'm trying to figure out why I like it so much.

I don't like these heavily photoshopped pictures at all, they look too fake and overdone, almost makes them look like a Prince look-a-like rather than the man himself! (I'm not saying it's not really him, it just looks that way!) His face looks painted on! I prefer the "real" Prince.

I just ran across this picture on a blog site and immediately thought of this thread. Assuming it was painted from an actual photograph, I'd love to see it.

Really? Amazing how different people perceive this.

For me this is a picture of an aging pop start trying too hard to fabricate a new image and scared of growing old, going through extreme make-up and photoshop work to cover it up. Like this elderly women that think they can still get away with dressing up like a 20 y/o.

And the look on his face is so bland and empty. I would not be happy with such a portrait of myself.

He looks like a mashed up version of Oprah and Mo'Nique.

Just kiddin, the guy looks ridiculously like Jimi Hendrix, and one arabian artist I know, but most he doesn't look like fuckin 55 at all.
