Thieves In The Temple - Extended Just a shout out to how brilliant this is. Everytime it comes up on my shuffle volume goes to 11 and the whole house is up for grabs!
One of his hits that gets forgotten imo, and deserves more recognition. Not that will happen here...how many of us left??  |

Yep. Great song when feeling selfpity and just blaring it all out. Was at the video Premiere in Wembley 90 and it was fun to see on the mini big screen in the middle of the hall (from the ceiling).

I was also there at Wembley 90. I loved it at the time and still love it now. |

https://princevault.com/i..._June_1990At this one on 22 June 1990 at Wembley Arena, the video for Thieves In The Temple was played, the first time it was shown in public. I was at a slightly later gig there in early July - my first Prince concert in person. There may or may not be something coming! |

I like the second half (the extended part) much more than the first half (original song). In fact, I usually skip to the halfway point when I listen.

Yeah the second part is also my jam, too fonky!
I also like the video, where someone is wearing his Nude tour clothes. |

I assume that's a typo and you know it's "herding sheep blindly through a fantasy."

Omg! I like actually just discovered this about a month ago, and it is so cool! I like the " put your foot in the rock" part. The whole extended version is really cool!
so is the end message they look at at the end of the video. Shockadelica, she must be a witch

That also has a “put your foot on the rock” section. |

Agree the 2nd half elevates the song. Brilliance. |

I like the "Extended" version so much, I slot it into my playlist where the album version would go on the GB album. I haven't listened to the "album" version in forever! |
