Jamiroquai on "Do U Lie?" I was listening to Parade the other day and noticed that during Do U Lie, there's a certain moment before the last verse where Prince sings "going down, going down, going down..." and it sounds exactly like Jamiroquai. The chord sequence, the sound of his voice and the choir (who echo the word "down") combine for about five seconds and it's like Jay Kay's on the mic. Makes you realise the influence Prince must've been on him. | |

I've never heard Jay Kay give Prince props, and i don't hear what you're hearing. |

I've never heard Jay Kay give Prince props, and i don't hear what you're hearing. Co-sign. But I bet Stevie Wonder is wondering when he's going to get his DNA back | |

Jamiroquai suck ass!! I have never heard those posers give props to Prince either. I do remember the Brit Awards back in 97 or something (Emancipation days) Prince performed Emancipation and there was a crowd shot of that loser singer from Jamiroquai watching with his arms cross and a look of discontent on his face. Probably wished he could play a fretless bass with gloves on like the little brother on stage. All the gals say hoe if your man's giving up the gold. All the fellas say ruff if you're only giving up the bone. | |

I like Jamiroquai, and I think my fellow orgers are too hard on them, but the scenario you described is really funny. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

Maybe he was wondering why someone with such talent was singing drivel like Emancipation. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yeah - and Im SURE I read somewhere about his love and respect 4 Prince - in fact, it may very well have been an interview Pre-show when asked who he was looking 4ward 2 seeing - a lot of people were asked, and many said the same thing: Prince! (even the Spice Girls) ((shudders)) Sure, he's an arrogant arse at times, but hey - which popstar ISNT! Ive still got all the singles from when he was on the Acid Jazz label back n the day.
It does intruige me what rubs people up the wrong way about him. Im not bothered either way - I just like the music, and his band are tight live. So tha sez wha?!?  | |
