I'm really confused as to where Prince's religious beliefs stand now. I know practically nothing about the JW religion but this confuses me:



>Someone noted above that the song is about Jesus


>When Prince had very recently converted to his JW religion, on I think it was the 'one night alone!' on Anna Stesia I noted that he changed 'save me JESUS' to 'save me LORD' instead.


>This would imply that he had issues with his original lyric



I don't get it? Is he back to just being a plain old christian now (please let that be omg I'd take him as a normal christian over some crazy JW) or does his JW status still stand? Anyone know? Am I right about noting the lyrical differences?


If he's doing this Christian-Rock song , I'm confused as well... Who knows, maybe if this is a cover of this Christian song (personally, I haven't heard the original YET but I'm going to) then maybe this is his way of letting the world know that he's back to being a Christian.. That's what I assume because why would a JW play a Christian song?

The lyrics are the star for this song...the original is boring. I think Prince and Hannah could turn this into something special.

Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

I mean the religions are different. They focus on the Bible but still... They believe or look at it differently... So as much as they might be little bit similar, they are different from each other..

"What If" -- if it is the Nordeman song -- is a great jam with deep lyrics and it would be ultra cool if he releases a version of it.

If u like "One of Us" lyrically u will like this jam.

This could be worse than Purple and Gold if it's a cover of that song with Hannah singing. I'll wait to hear it, hopefully we will all be delightfully surprised.

I see where it says Hannah on vocals but it doesn't say anything about a cover so "what if" its a new song which I still hope could be...

Now on the topic of new songs please Prince release: REvELATionS!!!!!!!!!! cool

I wanted to like the One of Us cover but the synths just made me want to puke. I like the melody of "What If" a lot and the lyrics aren't bad at all (to me). Looking forward to hearing it. Hannah's vocals don't bother me either.

Change it one more time..

Giving the vocal spotlight to a religious, session drummer freak who sounds like a piss poor version of Pat Benatar (on a good day).

Jesus, Prince. WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO YOUR CAREER?

The song will be played on a Kentucky radio station which can be streamed HERE

The radio station have said:

"In honor of the upcoming Hit and Run shows this weekend, we'll be debuting a brand new Prince & 3RDEYEGIRL song, "WHAT IF," tomorrow on WFPK. It features Prince and 3RDEYEGIRL drummer and Louisville native Hannah Welton on vocals."



Discuss! smile



What time? Kentucky is 2 hours ahead for me.
