Menstrual Cycle / Octopus Heart Live

It was up on 3rdeyegirl.com a few minutes ago but has now disappeared. Guess that's the next download to be released...

I heard that these trax were originally considered for the album but are now outtakes so its kinda cool their releasing them. I liked the live versions, especially Menstrual Cycle.

These are helluva titles for Prince songs, especially Menstrual Cycle eek . Sounds like it should be an outtake from 1991-93. Be very surprised if it lives up to its title's potential. Imagine if the Prince of 1983 (Sugar Walls) or 1993 (Come era) had done a song of this title and what it may now turn out to be like wink.

Hope to be wrong tho.

I'm wondering how to catalog this (when it becomes available). Next to Scarlet Pussy, I guess? hmmm

Menstrual Cycle (I can't believe I just typed that disbelief ) is like drippy trippy hippy music. Despite the hideous name, I'm kinda lovin' it. I could totally get into a whole album of that.

I hear you about the name. Love the song, but I'm imaginging my wife's expression tonight when I say "Hey sweetie, check out this cool new Prince track...." tonight.

I'm sure hers would be roughly the same as mine, which approximated this --> whofarted

i'm hoping these won't be on the album. not that there's anything wrong

with them - i absolutely love both of them. and the fact that they are up

for free download in great wav quality is super.

but i just love it when i get an album by someone and i know only one,

perhaps two songs on it yet. it kind of makes it a nicer experience just

to discover all that new music.

but that's just nitpicking. smile

i've just started a first attempt to catalog everything we got since andy allo's facebook posts

and those doc funkenberry rehearsals up until now. i just put all that stuff into one huge and

chaotic folder and now i'm having to sift through it and create some order. not complaining,

better too much to go through than too little smile

I believe someone said in the 3rd Eye TV thread that the Livestream chat rep said they aren't on the album.

but somehow that makes me enjoy them even more right now smile

I sent it to one of my friends, who replied...

If all periods felt as groovy and kind as this track the world would be a better place.

Agreed. Very laid back vibe from both. In fact, I'm kinda getting flashbacks to the C-NOTE mini-album of 2003-ish (in a good way). The playing may be a little less polished on these new tracks , but definitely, that 'Here's a cool rehearsal/ soundcheck thing that got kinda happenin, so I thought I'd release it somewhere' thang. smile cool

I agree, even though I'm not a big fan of N.E.W.S at least that album had some interesting instrumentals. These new instrumentals are among the worst he has released

My question in the last 3EG chat. "if 3rdEyeGirls periods were in sync yet??" and now Menstrual Cycle! I bet they are in sync. I'm really loving all these instrumental jams and the constant floooowwwwwww! of new music.

Getting new music really makes the day ace.

What are you outraged about today? CNN has not told you yet?

It's a reworking of Evenflow, hence the "humorously" reworked title.

Now, if he was backed by Wings when he performs it live.......
