Reggae

Yeah Princes only Reggae-Track (yeah, I know he played some Marley-stuff live, but Blue Light is the only Reggae-track he composed). Don´t really like it.

Rippopgothezipa has a Reggae vibe to it.Kind of.Allegedly

Don't forget that horrible fake Jamaican accent "rapping on "The Sun,Moon And Stars" off of Rave...that make me

blue light is sweet

it has a light

island vibe

when prince performed

this song on arsenio,

he and mayte ended

on top of his

piano

it was real cute

if u can describe it... it ain't funky

one thing P has said recently that i DO agree with.

I love Blue Light!! In fact, I am so hooked on the
whole CD. I just cant get it outta my CD player!!

"Splash" by Prince & The Revolution starts out with a reggae vibe on the verses too.

A very lame attempt at making a reggae song...

17 days has a reggae vibe to it if you listen closely, and needless to say is a far superior song. Blue Light is embarassing. My friend is a reggae expert and I live in dread of him hearing it.

I like this song a lot, it's fun and catchy.

My favourite performance of it being on Arsenio Hall TV show in 1993. Hell all the performances Prince did on Arsenio are on point...

Blue light? Has a little reggae vibe in it but it is still pop and a very catchy and fun song. I don't see how you can diss it.

Only because of its lovely 'rhythm-guitar-played-on-a-cheap-synthesizer'-part...
A phenomenon that the Eurodance-scene embraced wholehartedly

And is it a superior song? I find the hook a bit boring...
I'd say that Blue light is a bit catchier, and the lyrics are better too.

'I'll be standing naked with nothin' but a smile on'

Classic Prince.

Jazz-reggae...leave it up 2 Prince

:COOL: It wuz a reggae smooth jazzy kind of beat.

you're fools to make fun of princes "raggae"

they majority of princes music that everyone calls funk is really burning up with a raggae sound rather than funck and I LOVE his rap on the saun moon and stars and its quite possibly the best song on that album



rigpopgoda zippa ???


oh and one other thing that poll for which sound do you like prince best


GOOD GOD how could you choose one song? He could have every musical style in on one track

your'e the 2nd person that said that "ghat dammit" theres no reggae influence in 17 days.. LOL ugh...

vivid said:

yeah. just like "bambi" sounds like somethin you'd hear from one of those wind-up music boxes, man.

AprilMichelle said:

Excellent lyrics but Prince went Miss Cleo on us "Wontcha call me rite now, the fierst tree minutes are free"

"Christopher Tracy's Parade" & "New Position" both have a reggae vibe with the steel drums in the background.

And now that Cleo is in the State Pen. I think some people are gonna get mighty confused when they hear that song in the future!
