Superconductor is a lovely album. Admittedly, AA hasn't got a big voice but the beauty of the album is that P worked with her voice and provided the right type of songs for it. Ditto Oui can love which is a collection of covers with him on acoustic guitar. . Btw, if The story of you and I is about their relationship, is the song I love u in me as well? LOL

Maybe she wasn't invited to perform at any of the tributes, simple as that. Doesn't make me wonder at all. Judith did perform at the tribute in Minn. tho. | |

Last I checked, this album was free for streaming on Amazon Prime. The CD is crazy expensive now. | |

Or maybe she refused simple as that. She did say on that day she was going to be there in spirit so that more than likely means she was invited | |

I still haven't heard this album--a lot of people said it was well done and wished Prince had recorded some of the songs for himself. I'll have to give it a listen. My favourite protegé album since the mid 80s. Stunning, from start to finish. I agree. I was surprised by how much I liked it. Definitely worth a listen. | |

From what I could hear of the words, I wondered if it was in connection to Revelation. There is a vid on YT of him singing I love you in me in London, I think it is...well before Andy's time at PP. Guess she is making a statement with her comments and doing it Prince style with the "hold something back" approach. | |

It could possibly be;
Lyrics for the story of you and I
Every time you enter me
Soldier deeper into me
I love you in me When we are making love it is like surgery I say oh I love you in me
it is not rocket science to figure out | |

I thought it was for SOI the story of you and i, its been hiding hiding behind the moon long before the ancient wiritngs was the sweetest song anybody ever knew. When we just close our eyes and hold each other tight angels from a starry sky sing to us every night....every night yu enter me as the sun enters the sea then we just close our eyes and hold each other tight... | |

Per Prince vault,. initial tracking for I love U in me was in 1989 (Arms of Orion) and then re-recorded in 2011-12 with Andy as Oui we can love. I like both versions but think the addition of her vice really adds somehting to it; like their version better. | |

the story of you and I has been hiding hiding behind the moon long before the ancient writings was the sweetest song anybody ever knew
and hold each other tight angels from the starry sky sing to us every night the compositions of our body always surprise a different song every night the story of you and I
as a sun enters the sea
and hold each other tight never ending moonbeam tides rise and recede angels from the starry sky sing to us every night convergence of the highest order deeper into me
a different song every night the story of (the story of) both you and I (both you and I) and how we came to be how we came to be free
the story story of you and I

You're most welcome! I've never seen or heard anything that suggested that Prince co-wrote this particular song with Andy. I do know that he played acoustic on this track for the album. P is supposed to have written Superconductor and The Calm, and he and Andy co-wrote Long Gone. Everything else is credited to AA, so it's interesting that she says that now. | |

She said so on her live broadcast it isi still on her page. | |

The song Oui can love is an acoustic remake of the song We can funk. I love u in me has kept its original title and is one of the tracks on the unreleased Allo/Prince acoustic album Oui can love. ...every night another symphony... | |

Lyrics to I love U in me - original. The acoustic version sung by AA with Prince in brackets/crossed out . She (I) took off her (my) dress, and I (he) took a peek Everything I want is what she (he) does to me . I promised myself not to come (hug) until she (he) does Everything I want is what she (he) does to me And she say, ooh, I love you in me I love you, I love you, in me . Our bodies sink in a pool of sweat Everything I want is what she (he) does to me I love you in me .

Please read before adding useless comments. I said it's interesting that she is now saying they co-wrote it - because I have never heard her, or P, or anyone else suggest that before. He was not credited on this song in the liner notes when the album came out. History has an interesting way of being rewritten when it suits someone, and the bottom line is that she can say whatever she wants to, just like everybody else, because nobody's here to say otherwise. | |

I only stated the fact, if you consider that useless then that says a lot about you and it doesn't stop the FACT that she had a special place in Prince's heart
Have a great day! | |

Great song and a great album! As someone else said one of his best protege albums in 4ever! The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.
Remember there is only one destination and that place is U All of it. Everything. Is U. | |

It's a beautiful, sexy song. I don't doubt for a moment that she and P co-wrote it...or that it is their story. He always seemed QUITE taken with her. She might not have been at the tributes (probably because she was not invited), but P made certain that her presence in his world is permanently etched in his legacy, there on the walls of Paisley Park. I don't believe any of his other proteges was honored in such a way. And don't forget that he would reportedly draw Sharpie hearts on their ring fingers! He even wore one of his graphic shirts with her picture on his chest (commissioned at his request, no doubt). This was yet another first for the Purple Yoda. All things considered, I'd say that Prince was REALLY into Andy. | |

It's obvious he was into her. I'm a bit surprised though due to the age gap. What could she bring to his life ? | |

She's slim young beautiful and talented. What is there not to like? The world's problems like climate change can only be solved through strategic long-term thinking, not expediency. In other words all the govts. need sacking!
If you can add value to someone's life then why not. Especially if it colors their days... | |

Andy allo and Prince They also wore TOTALLY KICKY matching outfits, and allegedly, she’s the one who influenced him to wear his hair in a natural afro. They also sang “Let’s Get It On”, in a reasonably sexual manner. Wherever this sits with you, the outfit coordination forever solidifies them as a visually unified music making match in the heavens. | |

it was obvious to me that prince wrote or co-wrote the entire album. i don't care what she says. andy is talented but not a good enough songwriter to copy his songwriting style and very few of the songs on SC sound like her other work. esp this song. those are prince lyrics- they may have exchanged lines but those are prince words.
-- same with liv warfield's album. but her album sounds more like her than prince so he probably did 3-4 songs at the most.
-- i always felt that it was prince returning to his old school program of doing everything and feeding them the narrative. Prince #MUSICIANICONLEGEND | |
