Walk In Sand I think this is a pretty subdued but catchy tune. Nice and chill. Keep it up Prince... | |

Ha! I didnt even realize that. I got the "video" from 3rd eye today and it didn't even register. I guess they're being nostalgic... | |

Nevermind. It's from the 3rdeyegirl twitter.
SOUNDS to my ears like a slightly different mix. Always loved this song. 20Ten was a typical Prince album for me in that I like a few tracks from the beginning, but the majority had to grow on me for a number of years. Loving 90% of it now.
I wish I knew how to capture this track from the twitter stream. My computer skills are lacking tho' | |

I change the rules and do what I wanna do | |

I love this song. It´s an underrated little gem from an album that is not nearly as bad as people think it is. This sounds like it could have been on his second album, just a tad more modern. Love the simple yet romantic lyrics, the idea of walking in sand with a cute woman, love the melody and the instrumentation. Can´t really understand why Prince fans dislike this song. Sticky Like Glue is another good song from that album. Sure, there are some clunkers on it like Everybody Loves Me, but all in all, despite its flaws, this album does contain some really good songs and this is definitely one of them.

On a quick listen it seems to b absolutely similar 2 the released version, it even segues in2 See Of Everything in the end. Well, technically it's an alternate edit because the original CD track was CUT earlier in the transition in2 SOE but I don't know if this should really count. I know Princevault and Boris say it does, but really I ain't sure I should add it to the discog just because of that A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...scography/ | |

I liked most of 20Ten and thought it was a pretty solid album, but this was one of my least favorites from the album. I wonder what it means that he's posting this now from his youtube account. Change it one more time.. | |

After the The Breakdown alien video and now this bizarre posting of an old mediocre album track from out of the blue I do have to wander if we are witnessing the slow mental breakdown of Prince through his Youtube. It's probably just his usual crazy self, but it sure is strange. Heavenly wine and roses seems to whisper to me when you smile...

how it is bizarre? whats bizarre is someone frequently visiting a messageboard dedicated to someone they consider "strange" and "crazy", well what do you think that makes you look like?
ANYWAYZ anyone who assumes all of princes twitter followers are as familiar with almost every song in his catalog like most of us here is a silly. Its "OLD" to you yet NEW to so many others who are still discovering the music of this ICON til this day.

Oh, it was just a lighthearted jibe, I was joking, no need to take it so seriously. I don't really care if he wants to put it on his channel, and if it helps other people discover and appreciate the song, which isn't personally to my taste, then that's great. It just seemed rather random to me. It would be nice if he made the stuff from Planet Earth and 20Ten more generally available though, as most people won't have had the chance to hear it.

Evertime I hear Walk In Sand, and really the entire 20TEN album in general, it's just a reminder of how Prince has completely given in to every criticism people made about his music in the 80's. Prince has become so stale, boring and predictable that it's really just something I could have never imagined back in the day. When I hear he's doing shows with Niles Rodgers, who I respect, but I think Prince is doing it for the wrong reasons. A lot of musicians look at Niles' disco era hits and are envious of how he has had a career that has lasted a lifetime with feel-good tracks and family friendly lyrics. The thought there is that Niles did it right. Niles' decades-long success is because he played it safe. I think Prince has tried to mold himself into that type of act, and I can't stand it. WHYYY?? Prince made his name by having a POV. He wasn't right-wing, conservative, corporate america, mom's apple pie safe. He understood that all that was lies and phony bs people said in public, but behind closed dooors it was a whole other story. Now he's just as much of a phony bitch as Tipper Gore ever was. "When Doves Cry", "The Beuatiful Ones"... back in the days when Purple Rain just came out and they had Casy Kasem's Top40 countdown or whatever. There was a song that typified why Prince was da shit and some of these other acts were formula sell-outs. We used to crack-up laughing at these cornball mf's:
Congrats, Prince. Now you just like 'em. | |

Congrats, Prince. Now you just like 'em. Name one artist that stayed groundbreaking over several decades, and please don't say Madonna, she's ok but her songwriting abilities are more hype than an actual craft she's really good at. The expectations are just astounding. Just look at that guy who said all Prince has to do is release an absolutely mind blowing album. Who has released mind blowing albums over nearly three decades? Your reaction fits my theory that some fans are waiting for him to recapture the brio of his youth... And their own. | |

People are missing my point. Walk In Bland is a sellout formulaic tune. Prince's vocals are great on it, it's not the worst of the bunch in terms of the bad Prince records, but it doesn't belong in the conversation with true Prince music. It's Prince's attempt to sell out. Let's go back to "Graffiti Bridge". Anybody remember the Electrifying Mojo interview with Prince from the mid 80's? Remember how Mojo asked Prince about the criticism of Purple Rain? Prince answered that he didn't write the script and if he had it would have been cleaner or whatever. And when he did look what we got... a hot mess of edits called Graffiti fuckkin Bridge. Prince tried to appease the folks that were just hating on his success. Think of all the new tracks Prince wrote for GB, not the outtakes from the 80's he included, but the new "safe" material. It was all straight garbage. Prince is no good without the edge. He can't tame down and still be listenable. The religious records and the political POV is just not entertaining enough. The 'real music by real musicians' 3EG co-writer, arent-we-so-cute-wtih-our-OneWordTitles songs aren't anything close to the excitement of true Prince music. Everybody, everybody know Prince made his best music singing dirty over synthesizers. He isn't very good at anything else. He isn't Girshwin and shit. Prince needs to just get back to making true Prince music. | |
