Breakfast can Wait? Oh dear, looks like business as usual.

Mentioning 'club bangers', I do hope Fallinluv2nite will not be on the new album... And... what?! Larry's back in the game ? That really is some bad news. That means Prince's still heavy into the JW shit. And that's really bad news for the Purple Rain remastering, given the lyrical content of that absolute classic. Damn, I'm scared now...

There goes my again!

so in short, this is the album he had ready to go all the way back to the end of 2012.

2Y2D must be on that album too, that's quite a safe bet.

might mean the 3EG stull will still get a release since all of that was recorded *after*

and he has been banging on about it for over a year now.

Hope so - I'm looking forward to 3EG album more than the new Prince one.

well the 3EG webite is still there, for the moment, so if all else fails with the

release of PE, perhaps they can keep trickling the songs onto the website?

This is the album he was born to make

Very likely, yes.

I was more looking forward to 3EG too.

Very disapointed that Breakfast will be on there, easily the worst of the releases he's put out in the last couple of years. Certainly no album containing that track can be compared to Purple Rain. Hopefully that's the only duffer though and I can do a swift replacement with something better .

Glad we'll get a CD version of The Breakdown, great song. I'm gonna stick my neck on the line here and say that slow ballad will be track 3.

One question though, is this woman on the spreecast the same Nikki who was on the recent Peach & Black podcast about the London shows?

Well, I could handle 3 releases this year.

Why would anyone come to a premature conclusion about the album with so little information?

You are just setting yourself up not to like it, no matter how good it is.

Whats with the chipmonk voice at the end of Breakfast? I mean, I know the man has sped his voice up over the years and made it somewhat of a trade mark, but on BCW it really does sound like a smurf or chipmonk. Blatently rubbish. And he is going to release it on his 1st WB album in 20 years? Do the masses really want to hear that? Please release 3EG... Please!

Although some obviously hate it, I like "Breakfast Can Wait" a great deal. It was a pleasant surprise to learn that it's getting an official release on the new album. I figured it was a lost gem at this point -- although not too lost, I guess. "Rolling Stone" did include it in their list of the top 100 songs of 2013 (placing at #44).

Larry Graham is still here?

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

my hopes are totally dashed.

sad.

Of all the songs released randomly over the last 2 years the only ones worthy for the new Prince album are:

The Breakdown

That Girl Thang

Breakfast Can Wait

FUNKNROLL

Well, who cares. I'll download the new Prince album to listen to it once, and spend my money on the remasters, to be played again and again....!

Prince only played Larry's bass on his new album!!

Agreed. I take very little stock in any of this. And how long ago did this "Breakfast Can Wait" dancer hear this album. If it was during the actual video shoot, chances are what she heard as a "new" album was probably overhauled.

'Club bangers'?

Funk, rock, soulful ballads and a quirky, lyrical song or two. That's Prince to me.

Wasn't that the case with Lotus Flower - Recorded long before its release.
