Perhaps I'm reading too much into it but the song works well as a statement to those who are not happy with him in general. He didn't write the lyrics but he sure picked them well. Change a few words, and it could be his general "if you don't like me / leave me alone" statement to interested parties, friends, lovers, fans, ex-fans and critics.

Most of them already have though. Prince is late to the party again. At this point Prince is just moaning at his few remaining diehard fans. Nobody else really gives a fuck.

Tell the 50,000, sold out, SuperDome in Nawlins last summer that....

Anyone else think these lyric videos are the worst thing to happen to music videos since MTV became a reality TV channel?

Touring isn't a problem for Prince, we know that. People like legacy artists.

His recent music is appalling. He's totally lost in the studio. THAT's the problem.

First one i can recall is 'Sign 'O' the Times' by someone or other.

He is NOT lost in the studio! You're just LOST on what real muziq sounds like! For to still be creating new muziq after over 35 years is incredible. Stop hating!

"AnotherLove" is just as good as anything else has recorded, since he first stepped behind a soundboard. Even though it's not his song. He made it his own brilliantly.

KCool,

WHY do you insist calling Prince his old name, the symbol is NOT his name since 2000!

His name is Prince and not that symbol, and you should know if you really are a fan...

You are aware you come off as a rather silly fanatic, right..?

Except you, who keeps hanging with them.

I also thought the same thing. Prince's version sounds like a proverbial middle finger to fickle fans, mean spirited hardcore fans, bitter former musical and managerial associates and critics. I hope this becomes a concert staple in 2015. I love this song.

Glad I'm not the only one having that impression. He's beendogged by some of the most ex-devoted nfans in the world. Yet his body of work proves it: he's at the top in terms of creativity and producrivity -- quality varied, and so did our idea of what constitutes quality, but Prince managed to remain true to himself better than anyone -- and make some fierce new sounds.

Art Official Age sounds even better now than it did when it came out.

From the baseline reference to D'Angelo's Brown Sugar album it is hard for me to imagine that Prince's version of Another Love is the standard finger in the air commentary. I could be grasping at straws but the base as played by ? Prince, Donna or Ida ? does alude to the creeping base of D'Angelo's earlier work. Since the PE cd was stamped with the same baseline, Another Love could merely be a promotion of that artist's work (Vanguard BM).

Such a smartarse.

I'm a fair weather fan these days. Prince (and any celebrity for that matter) is very low down on my list of priorities. My infrequent posts would be a clue.

Prince is still worth discussing from time to time.

I just think it's great KCool is allowed access to the internet in the institution where she's been locked up for the past few years.

I'd forgotten that one--I was going to cite When 2 R In Love. But he was ahead of the curve on this terrible trend either way.

I am in total agreement and have also expressed this exact opinion on a few other threads.

"Clothes and Hair" are far deeper than one might think.

Prost!
