Prince Partyman used in new Chicago Bulls The Last Dance i haven't seen i tmentinoed but episode 3 of the new (Awesome) THe Last Dance documentary on the Chicago Bulls uses Partyma while Michael Jordan takes flight ...they use a pretty long portion...I loved it!
I think 'Sexy MF' would have been more impactful but ......you can't have it all.
This is EXACTLY what I hope to see continue. This is the best way for his music to get out there. Bring on Disney/Pixar next.... | |

I saw it and it was perfect. They played almost the whole song (a few edits) hailing the new king in town! The show is amazing. | |

LMAO...i just knew that was gonna end up as a thread on this site, as it should be..while i was watching it Sunday night and saw that, and the part where P says "YOUNG & OLD, GATHER 'ROUND, EVERYBODY HAIL THE NEW KING IN TOWN!!" while onscreen there is a still shot of Michael Jordan slyly grinning back over his shoulder as the song ends, was a great touch... great use of a Prince song for sports content. | |

I bet he would have ok'd its use in a heartbeat, too. I recall when P attended a Bulls game. Used to have it on vhs . He didn't sit courtside for that particular game. So, this is a real short article, few paragraphs, but it also links to a thread here, ha. Mentions the time when Prince set up a tv on the side of the stage while playing in Montreal so he could watch the Bulls game while he was killin' it on stage. Lols.

I know he loved the game of basketball, but I can't speak on whether he would have allowed his music to be used, because I think we all know how strict he was when it came to using his music. I think the only way we would truly know what he would have done or wouldn't have done, is if the man were here himself. | |

Just got caught up on the episode tonight. Freaking awesome to hear that song in that segment. Had to rewind it a couple of times to hear it again. Great use of a Prince song. Funky!!! Loving the show. "I want to be the only one you come for...." | |
