The United States of Division

Guess who heard a new Prince song tonight? eek

It's called "The United States of Division", and it's a little bit on the funky side.

It's pretty cool...it was "premiered" tonight at Berlin nightclub, here in Chicago....and I bumped my butt off to it. Keep yer eyes peeled, hopefully we'll be seeing it available for sale or download or whatnot. smile

So...how random was that? I mean, were you just out on the floor doing your milkshake, giggle and all of a sudden the dj said...."yo yo paaahtay peeeeepole. he's a new one from Prince. Ch-ch-ch-check it out!! Raise da roof!!"

whistling

Details damn it. Remember any of the lyrics? Time length? What studio was it recorded in? What was he wearing during the recording of it? And most importantly...are you sure it's a new song or a "vault" release? giggle

i'm fairly certain it's a new new NEW song...it's very "chocolate invasion/slaugherhouse" sounding...up tempo...from what i remember, kinda like "let's work" mixed with the musicology album...very sparse jam with a good beat...don't remember the lyrics at all, too busy shakin' my butt. dancing jig

First a new song (Black Sweat) on Friday, now another new one at Berlin. Wow...we're lucky here in Chicago.

Anxiety, did they play video of Friday night's show at Berlin?

Yes. It's a good song.

It's basically about vaginas.

There are right wing vaginas, then there are left wing vaginas. The problem is that it takes cooperation for those wings to flap and without love and understanding, no vagina can truly take flight,

Sounds cool. Prince is really gearing up for his music to talk about what's going on.

I hope it's cool, but I just can't imagine a song with that title....
I'll give it the benefit of the doubt and download it, though.
Although, for the 4th of July, how cool would it be for Prince
to release a newly recorded version of America? Performed
with the new band and just slammin!?
that would be a treat.

biggrin
If it breaks when it bends, you better not put it in.

Well I was there also! I had a lot of fun and I liked the new song, pretty funky, I was peepin some of the lyrics, you all can tell by the title that it gets political. I noticed that the last song they played that night was Sometimes It Snows In April? The DJ said we just had a death in the family, now we know what happened. My heart goes out to the Blackwell family.

Yeah, I thought Sam was just making some freaky metaphor when he said that. His comment and choice of final song makes a lot more sense now. sad

Thanks for the description of the feel of the song, Anx!! I was pretty excited about it before, but now I'm TOTALLY excited. BRING THE MOTHERFUCKER ON!!!

I never get bored of funky Prince songs, or fucked up Prince politixx.
