"I get private lessons from the guy that have made me a better musician, and he doesn't even play the saxophone. When I first joined the band I played a solo, and he came up to me later and said, `Think of it as if you're courting a woman. You're not gonna run up to her and start babbling. You're gonna take your time.' And he was right. I was trying to pack in every idea I had to wow the crowd, and he taught me how to talk to the crowd."  i knew it!"Pedro offers you his protection." | |

But people who aren't fans remember him from the Purple Rain era, and before, most generally... maybe in the USA , outside of there hes remembered for the Purple Rain era and the decade afterwards , when he gathered his hardcore european fanbase etc Check out Chocadelica , updated with Lotusflow3r and MPLSound album lyrics April 2nd 2009 :

I wonder why Prince said that??  because sadly, it's probably true. 
how much have YOU heard it on radio? i hope he's wrong... I just heard it yesterday here in D.C. ...not surprising really, musicology was blowing up the airwaves here when it came out Peace. | |

I wonder what the scented candles that Prince had burning smelled like? I just love candles! Yankee Candle makes a real pretty one called Lilac Blossoms. I love the way it smells when I burn it, the whole house smells like a lilac bush. RIP, mom. I will forever miss and love you. | |

"Call My Name" is actually doing quite well in terms of airplay and has been since it debuted. It was the #1 most added single the week it was serviced to radio. It's sitting at #7 on Radio & Record's Urban AC chart with 752 spins this week and at #36 on their Urban chart with 683 spins. The single is also this week's #1 Most Increased Plays Urban AC single with +218.
"Musicology" on the other hand, is sitting comfortably at #13 on the Urban AC chart with 289 spins this week. On Billboard's end, the album - which debuted at #3 on their Hot 200 albums chart - is currently sitting at #5 but that's Soundscan not BDS spins. All in all, "Call My Name" is a strong follow-up to "Musicology". | |
