Thanks for the update. I remember being excited for the purple pick, updating Tidal to see what it was. Now it's Wednesday and I hadn't given it a thought, only looked at the thread because I saw it in the sticky list and had a look. Such a wasted opportunity sad.

RIP sad

My favorite is still "Free Urself".

I hope Phase 3 gets a release. C'mon, Prince! Release it!

My re-newed subscription ended this week (got 4 months for the price of 1) and for now I'm not extending it.

The PP could be a great way to keep Prince fans but it's a big dissapointment. Last decent new tracks were Free Urself and IECGYA. Now that they have a download store, a subscription isn't needed anyway.

But yes, still checking it every monday hoping that one day we'll get something nice again!

^ Man. I'm gutted I cancelled my subscription. This is such a rarity, I have longed to have this track in pristine quality.

Prince is no longer involved. Someone at tidal is making educated guesses (so a track he covered, a tune from an anniversary). Prince doesn't do anniversaries or looking back so why a celebration of the 30th anniversary of Parade and so obviously one that has april in the title! Clearly the bod at tidal isn't that clued in!

While I would've loved for Prince to throw that early demo for the song that was on sale a while back as his pick this week, I'm totally okay with this pick. Then again, it's snowing here in New Jersey so I'm kind of obligated to be okay with it lol

It's kind of sad indeed. To celebrate the release with his fans he/they could at least give us something that isn't available for streaming/downloading (extended version, b-side, whatever).

A nice pick from time to time could be a reason for me to stick around longer at Tidal, but it has no advantages at this point.

Hoping next one will be something off the 30 year old smash album - Parade perhaps Mountains or Girls and Boys?

Got some kind of love for you, and I don't even know your name

This Purple Pick of The Week is dead. It's basically a “FUCK YOU” to the fans each week! Prince gives zero fucks about this now.

You're joking, right?

Maybe next time something to commemorate the announcement

of the PR remaster?
You know: something for the real fans.

Well he doesn't have to even do it. I think its cool that he picks a song a week and shares it with us. He does not owe us anything.

Prince should focus more on Spotify instead since Tidal probably won't last long.

Thanks. You knew soon!

I've now got a super 42 mins new playlist of lovely new music from his choices. It's like he's working for me razz I will need to buy them all on ITunes though. Hope Tidal changes this soon. It's great how one song listen leads to another search and another new track/artist to find, so I'm tickled purple right now!
