Here's the deal for me though. I saw him more than a few times back in the day, splits, piano leaps and all, and I've seen him fairly recently. Vocally, he sounds much better to my ears than he did when he was dancin his ass off. Don't get me wrong, I miss the wild ass dancing too, but damn listening to him sing and play now, imho the trade off really hasn't been that bad.

lovebizzare said: Well none of Prince's current music fits in with the dancing you're used to seeing. He can't jump off of a piano during "theocratic order" and he can do the splits during "ever lasting now"
And, after all those splits, jumping off pianos (I don't think james brown ever did that),running around stage, ect., it's not completely out of the question that he permenately pulled something He may not be moving the way you want him to, but he's not stiff BTW: When was Mick Jagger ever in good shape? He's skinny as hell and can move very well, but in better shape than Prince Who are these people that think Mick Jagger is a good dancer!!???  Are you the same people who think it's an accomplishment to do the electric slide at wedding receptions???  | |
