For anyone who's interested, the version of Partyup posted in the Reflection room uses backmasking to cover up the 'f' word halfeay through the song. That makes it a new version, and hence, new music through the NPGMC...

So what I'm curious to know is, does this acknowledge the rumor floating around that Morris wrote "Partyup" and Prince bought it from him? I seem to remember that in "Possessed", and find it interesting that this song is included in a Reflection room collection that appears to be a mini-tribute to Morris. Is this just common knowledge by now?

Anxiety said:

Yeah, morris wrote it. He gave Prince the song in exchnage for a record deal (the time), he was selling shoes at the time.

DON'T TOUCH THE CLASSICS!!!

AAARRGH! Prince IS

"Fightin' war, it's all about the Moors, Partyup!"

Ahem. I'll get my coat.

whatever...it's still a great song. And now my kids listen to it!

They could before.hearing and learning swear words is part of growing up.

whether kids go on to swear all the time depends on the vocabulary they attain as they grow.it's lazy to resort to swearing.

i myself have a shit fucking vocabulary.

lovebizzare said:

I was wondering the same thing Anxiety. Since the reflection
room is a tribute to Morris this week.

Great way to get a record deal!

Those who believe in war, it's such a fucking bore, Partyup, gotta partyup.

Fuck Prince and his censoring ass.

It's easier to edit the old stuff since he doesn't seem to have the ability to create NEW music anymore.

There goes any hope for future edit-free remasters...

its only been a few months since he made new music.

I'm referring to the fact that Prince used to release an amazing album once a year. A few months? Are you referring to the Xenophobia album that he gave us in January under a different name? Hardly "new" and hardly anything he couldn't do in his sleep. And just because he's in the studio with Sheila next month it doesn't mean we'll hear it anytime soon does it? So I'll still be waiting to hear some new Prince music thank you very much.
