My post about the boot Orange Chicken by Prince & Morris Day was locked by Militant & he wouldn't tell me why, I didn't tell anyone where or how to get it because I don't know, I only wanted to discuss the song

Never heard of that track and I don't see it listed at Princevault. Do tell.

Puts you in the mind of Tricky or Cloreen Baconskin, I was out of town & searching around online & came across it. I never heard anything about it, I liked it, well I love Cloreen Bacon Skin but also reminds me of Irresistable Bitch, I think they have share the same 1st verse.

My mind is blown, my head is spinning...a Different Mix of Million $ Show??

And we still don't have the best version that was recorded. We got a snippet of it a few years ago.

I must have missed that snippet. Did it have Prince on lead vocal?

Here I can't agree.

The P original version is in the same league with the "The Family" Version, and about 20 times better (if not 30 times better) than the P & Rosie Gaines "Las Vegas" rendition included in "The Hits".

I agree, I can’t stand the Hits version.

Co-sign. I never liked that duet version and have always felt that this should be sung alone, and that´s why so far the live version from the Nude tour, especially the ones from La Coruna in Spain and the rendition he gave in Buenos Aires at the River Plate Stadium were my favorite versions but now that this version has surfaced it´s right up there with those two live renditions.

Absolutely stunning to hear him sing this Family version of that song.

So much better than any duet version.

Don´t get me wrong, not that I dislike Rosie Gaines but the Rosie version or Shelby versions didn´t do much for me.

This, however, is a true gem.

Frida Kahlo, Rumeta and Pangea are from the same sessions. Theses tracks are so important, they represent the newest stuff we have from Prince.

All 3 are part of the new minneapolis sound Prince was creating, which started with Baltimore, where he plays the guitar track and has it replaced with orchestration.

Rumeta showcases this perfectly. where prince starts with guitar work, and his guitar work is removed and replaced with orchestration that is a replica of his guitar work. Three versions of Rumeta, it is really amazing to have these 3 tracks, they show EXACTLY what his new process was with recording.

It looks like the next album we were going to get was really going to be something special. The new direction he as going with these tracks was fantastic.

Well, now that you mention it, it makes perfect sense.

Thanks for the info.

Frida Kahlo was a painter that painted herself


Panga is the land mass when all the continent were one

I am not sure about Rumeta?

Was 17 days slated for the 2nd Apple's 6 album? The second part of the extended edition seems to fit perfectly for an album version with all voices from that group.

Yes, it was. Hence the line about "All I´ve got is two cigarettes, and this broken heart of mine."

I was surprised that Prince kept those lyrics when he decided to release it as his own b-side instead of releasing it on the A6 album.

Can anyone make out what is being said in 17 Days at about 6:40 in the left ear?

No it doesn't. It's not Prince and it's not Morris. It's fake.

Quick note: I do wish Clare had orchestrated "Glam Slam", or Prince at least had a real orchestra play those synth parts, as well as "Anna Stesia".

One thing about "New Position" that sticks out is that the Clare parts sound like something from Classical Metropolitan Orchestra album of Prince covers including "1999" (which I believe Prince in turn sampled on 1999: The New Master). They're very reminiscent of what CMO did.

I disagree again

I think the synth parts add to the "oddness" of the track. Nothing is quite what it seems.

I can see that. But for me, that song has a very organic feel to it (as does the whole record, really). I think with Sheila's big drumming, the layered vocals, the band feel to it - a live string section would have just been lucious. The keyboards are fine, but they keep it ever so slightly dated (not in a bad way) for me. I wouldn't want another arrangement either, I like what he wrote. I just wanted a different sound on it.

04. If The Kid Can't Make You Come 9’12 (1983)

thanks!

Been listening 2 all these today literally all day. I take back what I said about Sticky Wicked, sure it's "noisy", but also damn funky. Love his pseudo rapping up there. Kick it love! Rumeta is damn pretty. 2 semi answer previous poster about meaning. After very little searching I found that Rumeta could b a boy or girl's name. Another site said it means "to grow uglier". Damn, was gonna name my pseudo (Sticky Wicked got me saying that word much ) child that, but now not 2 sure . Nothing Compares is pretty cool to hear, love the cleaner Desire, that's always been my jam. Take back what I said about Love 89 2 ("Ain't got time 4 sinners at all ) . Playtime is catchy. Gonna b bumpin these profusely . Set is bomb

I wonder what the song "Bobbi Jo" is like?

Apparently it's a piano instrumental, the og version of Once Upon A Time from Eric Leeds' Times Squared album. Am also curious about this 1, if it isn't just that instrumental from years ago labelled as this . N If the Kid Can't respectively.

Fixed Kids to Kid. Also some1 already answered my Rumeta answer. dbl

Musically, Love 89 has many similarities with The line.

I was thinking exactly the same thing, highcalonic....

Anybody know who's singing on this version of Love's No Fun?

It's Elisa Fiorillo...she did this song before Mayte on her album "I am" released in 1990.

I like Elisa's version way better than Mayte's.That whole album is a hidden gem nobody talks about.

I believe this version is Mayte's original take rather than an alternate Elisa version....

There is a later Prince studio version of "Nothing Compares 2 U" with strings in place of the cheesy synth.

Doesn't sound like Mayte to me.
