I really think both tracks were weak. Maybe if the Time had done Release It or The Latest Fashion, I would've been more convinced that they were the winners. Neither Tick Tick Bang or Shake did anything for me.

i'm actually quoting prince on that one. that's what he said regarding negative reviews of GB.

and i agree. it's so visionary, and so far ahead of its time wink



huh. i don't know cuzzin, i watched GB twice this last week, and i'm still not sure what time it's meant for. we're at 14 years now. what, we need another decade? two? aah, forget it, i've been getting the flic lately.

yet HOW CAN YOU SAY SHAKE IS THE WEAKEST? i think we should leave that to Melody Cool.

'member when ol' boy did Shake at the Celebration? now that was Kool! thumbs up!

and Tick Tick Bang? that track is slammin! especially the kid's funky writhing dance moves!


for those not possessed of the spirit it may take a few centuries to 'get' GB. wink
for those of us who have danced a little in the purple rain, who have seen time stand still for a moment or two, --aah, we gets it, just a weebit.
alright, so maybe i'm just drivelin', but the movie is...unique, to say the least!

hey nina, i know Shake was originally in p's mind a slammin song. p. proved that at celebration. thumbs up! that's why i called it the weakest 'recorded' track on GB.

oh, and ticky ticky bang bang holds its own against anything. the dancin', the writhing, the get-up, the 'beat me' on his chest... see, the kid was fallin apart, for aura, and despairing. the mood and tude conveyed in that song is something p. don't show like that too often. and is super-way Fonkkay!
think it ain't, when it is, anybody?

I don't think there's really all that much substane to truly "get" in GB. Unless you mean "getting" annoyed, bored, irritated, constipated, embarrassed, confused, and angry.... lol

There is no doubt that Prince lost an incredible opportunity to wreck shop with We Can Funk. I absolutely love Tick Tick Bang (love the original better) but it was such a gay moment. lol

Right, it is supposed to be lame. According to the storyline, at least from what I remember, the performance of TTB is supposed to be the Kid trying too hard to beat Morris at his own game, not getting the spiritual vibe yet that he needs to "really win."

First half of the movie is bearable for the P fanatic.

Past that ... whew.

In the movie GB, what in the fuck was Prince thinking when he had the NPG do that LAMEASS performance of "Tick Tick Bang" out in the street? Did he really think he was gonna win the competition with that turkey? I would rather have seen TC Ellis and Tevin sportin' flowery dresses and singing "Chim-Chimmery" (sp)!


This isn't a long shot. whistling
