I just cannot take these "reviews" seriously at all. You should understand by now that not everyone shares your perspective. Theres nothing wrong with people liking different things. Respect others opinions. Change it one more time.. | |

I think that quote was referring to the fact that Prince was reportedly moved to come up with the song on short notice; even working out the kinks of the song in front of a reporter. I don't think they meant "raw" meaning it was James Brown's "Black And I'm Proud..."
Whether u think the song is shit is a whole other discussion.... | |

SLATEPrince Shared a Gorgeous New Song in Tribute to Baltimore and Freddie Grayhttp://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2015/05/09/prince_shares_baltimore_a_tribute_song_for_the_city_of_freddie_gray_to_be.html
On Sunday, Prince and his band 3rdEyeGirl will perform a “Rally 4 Peace” concert in Baltimore, which Jay Z’s much-mocked Tidal service will stream
The song, which Prince debuted last week at Paisley Park, is a raw and spontaneous expression of all the singer “needed to get out” after the unrest in Baltimore. The sound is Prince at his playful best—a funky bass line, a wailing guitar solo—but the words (“Peace is more than the absence of war/ Are we gonna see another bloody day?”) strike a more somber, almost pleading note. Wow these reviews are killing me. This is the PC crap that has overtaken the U.S. The media is almost obligated to say this song is good because of the so-called issue at hand. The music itself may be good, but the lyrics are not. | |

It's always great hearing Prince play guitar, but let's face it, the song is lame. It sure as hell is no SOTT. I'm glad he's doing the concert today and getting involved, but he could've written a much better somg. Something with some true grit! | |

We're forgetting something here murph... I asked people who complain about this song to do it themselves and post up something better...so far? Nothing but silence... | |

He told her it was 'raw and spontaneous, and he just had to get it out' when he learnt that she was in the hospital.
The lyrics go like this:
'Joni, thank Jehova that you are only ill and have not been killed like Freddie Gray and so many others We live in a US of crying mothers But enough is enough: after Mother's Day the whole world will be filled with love That's when they hear my guitar play and peace will be found like a needle in the hay Tune into Tidal, Joni, and you'll feel better Oh, and by the way: do you know Salma Hayek, cuz I wanna bed her'

I'm sure google is to blame for the rise in these sorts of absurd conspiracy theories. Vaccinations aren't debatable, they are a force for good. if you make them optional, the ability to eradicate perfectly treatable diseases is removed.
I don't know where you get the idea that the government put hydrofluoric acid in water. And you also seem to have misunderstood the way in which fluoride works when absorbed through the gut. Fluoridation is for systemic treatment, not topical. They're two very different things. Not even remotely like drinking sun tan lotion.
You need to stop half-listening this kind of bullshit: http://gawker.com/the-foo...1694902226

I could compose lyrics better but some would be offended by them. It's not difficult to outdo the lyrics of'Baltimore'.... | |

My commentary has been on my thinking reviews that state the song is "a COMPLETE Masterpiece" "a funky banger" "a raw and spontaneous expression of all the singer needed to get out" are shit.

Nice song. Doesn't feel forced. Nice background to a Sunday with the family. That's enough for me. | |

There are opinions, and then there's tripe. We get that you don't like it, but to assume you know what's in someone's mind and assume that they are making a mockery or/insulting the people of Balitmore is just ludicrous. | |

I keep reading your posts in the voice of Dale Gribble (your avatar) and you sound just like him. It's hilarious. Me personally? Fuck guns. Never fired one. Never wanted to. Don't get it all. I inhereted several when my parents died and promptly sold them/got rid of them. Somehow I made it 48 years living peacefully and never needed a gun; and I've been in some hairy situations.
.
The 2nd amendment has to do with forming and maintaing a militia. There's a qualifier at the beginning of it that's rather obvious, but perhaps we should take it to P&R.
.
Have all the guns you want. I really don't care so don't get me wrong. I just don't undersand the fetishism. The U.S. has a lot of problems but a lack of guns sure as shit aint one them.
.
As an aside: I keep thinking of Prince and his gun mic. Be funny if he broke it out for the performance and thre it in a wastebasket. | |

I think you honestly need to check yourself into a sanatorium. You seem to post stuff just to get a reaction, any reaction, maybe just to prove to yourself that someone cares what you think. I'm sure the people in Baltimore that the song is intended for will appreciate the song as his performance tonight, that's really all that matters. | |
