On Google Play, when you scroll down you can also see:

Label

© 2015 Virgin EMI

Saw it. This deserves it's own thread!

.

https://play.google.com/s...jay5bvd6pu says "℗ 2015 NPG Records, Inc." at the top and "© 2015 Universal Music S.A." lower down the page.

This would be much better if Prince actually SANG and added more LYRICS. A rap — something — to make it worthwhile. A really industrial DANCEABLE version would be cool. This is blah.

But thanks for posting to GooglePlay so we can download! I hate Tidal. Prince shouldn't make fans slaves to Tidal for the Album, since he didn't like being a slave. Fans like Freedom and options too!

Can't wait for the #FreeUrself album that got yanked so Prince could milk us for more bread with a remix album.

Can we get a digital booklet with new releases please? Pretty Please?!?

I also prefer the Egyptian art to the 80s art. That's how I've updated the song in my iTunes.

The 80s image isn't retro enough for my tastes.

I listened to it twice and it didn't make my ears bleed like most of the stuff on AOA. But it's not good either.

That would be the annoyingly positive and my husband can do no wrong Hannah.

For me it just says 2015 NPG on the top and on the bottom... Is it possible you guys are in Europe, cause I'm in USA and it only shows NPG. I don't see anything about Universal, or Virgin/EMI on the page.

I was hoping this song would remain a Tidal exclusive. Embarrassing track to put up on iTunes and not representative of the talent this guy has. This remix is just tragic if you ask me. I liked a good portion of AOA but this one remix is an amateur piece of homemade garbage. It takes real skill to ruin Prince's voice and this track d-d-d-d-d-d-does it for me-me-me-me-me-me.

I like the original but also the remix. Prince is adding whole new dimensions to an already cool song, they come across totally different songs to me. That added guitar and piano are great enhancers and additions.

That's exactly it. In the US the single is listed as being from "NPG", but Universal released the song internationally under various UMG labels (Virgin EMI being the case in the UK}.

finally heard it. Sounds like Josh went wild on the vocal tracks and some guitar tracks Prince had lying around. I like the vocal tracks and the guitar tracks. Everything else... someone above posted my thoughts exactly, that it sounds like something an aspiring dj in highschool would make. No restraint at all when it comes to the cliched effects. Tries way too hard to be 'cool'.

...and...yet...most people (aside from diehard P fans) really like it. Better than the original.

As I stated, I heard it once and it stuck in my head. In a good way.

that's good. Other people liking it is not an argument for me to like it too, though. And because i don't like it doesn't mean that you shouldn't like it either. If you enjoy it, right on.

Tidal exclusive.

It SOUNDS MUCH BETTER in my iTunes tracklist on my iPhone now that I've downloaded via GooglePlay. You have to listen to Prince albums in context. I will now rescind and reserve judgment until I hear all of HitNRun — sitting with my cat in my lap with all the lights off in my crib.

Tidal SUCKS. I feel suckered/bamboozled for even listening to it and subscribing. Don't do it. You were warned.

Most people who? Most people think Prince died in the 90's in a dangerous lack-of-ribs-self-Fellacio accident. I refuse to believe people other than 'diehard Prince fans' have even heard this track (other than those that were mercilessly subjected to it by diehard, massichistic Prince fans)...

"Th..th..th..this could be us!"

It's also now available on Amazon.

Is that US Amazon--I don't see it there.
