what are you guys' thoughts on this performance?

I thought itwas pretty good. And the interview wasn't that bad/akward. I just wish he hadn't held up those 4 fingers...lol

It's great, in a comedic way more than anything. It's majorly fluff, and Prince is trying way to hard, but it's very endearing at the same time. Gotta love it. The interview is hilarious.

and another thing...just watching that performance, I realized Gayle looked pretty good. Very pretty girl

imo, it's the best interview he's never done. funny shit!!!

Did anyone notice that during why you wanna treat me so bad he dropped his guitar after the strap came loose? He had to tell Dez to act out the guitar solo.

he didn't drop it, the strap came loose.

thedog said:

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

WAS IT?...thedog is gonna hate it. price cheated

piflacoco said:

didn't cheat, lotsa acts went on the show and lip-synched their performances...that's just the way it went. woulda been awesome if they were 2 do it live, but that's teevee 4 ya.

No, it wasn't THAT bad.. :LOL: cool interview for sure..

btw, funniest part of this whole performance: that little john travolta-on-crank stompin-dance p did at the end of "iwbyl"...2 funny!

Prince had ants in his pants

It hit the floor after the strap came loose.

1) He hit his self in the face with the mike at the 1985 grammies

2) his jacket sleeve got caught on the mike at the 1991 Mtv music awards

3) he knocked over the street lamp prop at a 1984 James Brown concert and he didn't try to d it, but he playe it off.

i missed that performance...why did he hold up 4 fingers? what was the question dick asked him?

thedog said:

I remember the Grammy show you could hear it when it hit him, I just said OUCH!!! I saw him the next night in Sanfrancisco, I looked for a bruise or something but he probably covered it with makeup.

LouieLaFunk said:

he asked him how many years ago did he make demos and have offers on 'em, and at the time it wuz four, hence p holdin up four fingers.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

yeah he got pissed off because dick said "you're from minneapolis???" he was insulted, but they patched it up in later years...

Loved the interview.

butterfli25 said:

yeah, it wuz cuz of that. dick needed a slap, it don't matter where you're from, u can still funk...

He was adorable, it's a definate keeper. It's Prince in his youth, young and learning how not to answer questions.

For some serious Prince bloopers, those who have it should break out the Atlanta Purple Rain show from 85...he almost drops the mike after his Little Red Corvette dance which is funny but then at the end of the regular part of Baby I'm A Star, he is trying to run across the stage and his heel gets caught in the mike's cord and he goes flying...although he does play it off nicely!! Speaking of that Grammy performance of Baby, I'm a Star, watch for Lisa's face right after he knocks himself in the head...always looked like she's looking over at Fink or Wendy and trying not to laugh out loud!!

then you see dez nod his head like "ok got it".

the interview is classic.
dick clark was sweating bullets.

see, now i'ma have 2 go and watch this sometime tonight...
