The difference in reaction to this song compared to HITNRUN is quite significant it seems.

TIDAL: Am I wrong but isn't it possible for all those people with a gmail or googlemail email address to use both addresses to get 2 months free trial.

E.G. prince@gmail.com for one month, then prince@googlemail.com the next month.

I use a googlemail account and have in the past given people the gmail and googlemail version. Received emails in my usual mailbox.

#justsaying

Of course, I am not condoning any type of email usage like this and the perception that you could be fleecing Tidal out of another month's free trial. Or condoning the fact that it's very simple to setup a gmail account anyway with a completely different name forever and ever.

It's ok.. more could have been done with this... it sounds incomplete to me

maybe he rushed to release an incomplete version for damage control after HITRUN? who knows..

I could be the only one but it kind of reminds me of Andre Cymone too lol

the acoustic guitar touches and the "uplifting" type of lyrics is the kinda stuff Andre Cymone would come up with these days

U are so right.! Andre did a residency earlier this year here. Which sadden me hardly NONE of the prince army supported it. Anywho Eye was in attendance every night. They both have the same dedication to their instrument. It's uncanny watching how similar they are.

But U right this song has Andre's vibe & lyrical views.At least somebody has been listening...

eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince

The fact that Prince released a single less than a month after HitnRun begs the question:

Is Prince going to use Tidal as if it's his dream outlet of music?

Meaning, with Warner Brothers, it is well known he would be sick and tired of promoting his 'old' music because he had already written new music by the time the album was ready to be released.

With Tidal, Prince can streamline new music just as fast as he writes it which is what he's always dreamed of doing!

It would be nice for us 'fams' if he dropped a few old gems from his Vault.

But he probably won't do that without 'touching up' the old vault songs.

In the mean time, lets hope he keeps on streamining new music just as fast as he records it.

He must have struck a deal he is happy with in Tidal.

That's what a lot of people who are anti-streaming and anti-TIDAL are missing. Prince is finally free to release his music the way he always wanted to without record company and distribution red tape. No waiting for months for his completed record to come out while his label partner tries to work him in between more commercially "relevant" releases that are a higher priority.

[Edited 9/28/15 17:10pm]


Right! Cuz there's no way he could do that with 3rdeyegirl.com?

I have zero interest in renting a stream (already cancelled my free trial less than 3 weeks in) but purchased every download he has offered for sale and will continue to do so. Just sayin'... wink

You are correct, one can signup for a new trial using a different email account.

Did you ever see the episode where the cops use Lithgow's apartment to stakeout a video bootleg ring? Lithgow tells the cop to see if they have a copy of Prince's underrated Under The Cherry Moon. The cop says "you should be able to get that at any video store" and Lithgow says something like "you'd think so". This of course was before the DVD release when the VHS was out of print. Classic!

I know I did...I only have one. But inbetween signing up and today I coincidentally lost it and have sent for a new one but have yet to receive it. My streaming has stopped but once I get card(I expect it today) I will attempt again with the above gmail.theory.

Love love love this song! Especially like the fact that he sounds HAPPY.
I'd rather hear him sound happy here rather than sound depressing with "The Breakdown". Yeah that's a great song too, but as I said, it's depressing!

In "Free Urself" he does a nice, sort-of throwback to "Controversy" with the grunts!

Maybe you have to let one free-trial lapse before you start the next, so then your CC details get deleted from their system. Surely Tidal shouldn't be keeping your CC details on file if you have cancelled the free trial. If all else fails, I've got 3 different cards and paypal.

I know this Tidal convo is off-topic but it's this conversation is going to drive me to deciding to sign-up to a free trial so I can listen to Free Yourself.
