This new act called Hot Chip has a song called "Down With Prince" Now, at first glance of the CD I'm thinking these guys are protesting Prince and his legacy. But then I actually heard the song and it was kinda cool. It sounded kinda funky in it's own stripped down electro/synth/beatbox kinda way. But it's not actualy a protest song. The lyrics are basically about the author being sick of folks who claim to be "down with Prince". And then he goes on to reminisce about when he was a baby and Prince wrote songs for Vanity 6. It was pretty funny. But check out that CD though. It's not bad. NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |

-- Yeah they were doin sessions and interviews on uk radio last year when the cd was released, and the guy is a big Prince fan and wrote the song cos he was pissed of with everyone namechecking P in songs all the time. cool song (in a college band kinda way) -you can watch them perform it here - http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/...e/A2633168 [Edited 2/6/06 16:18pm] [Edited 2/6/06 16:20pm] \o/\o/ ° The Breakdown = Best Prince song for 20 years | |

It was on picasso's (the orger)
list of good electro stuff last year... He had a lot of good music on that list! Another fun track was Mylo's 'Destroy Rock'n'Roll' where a sampled voice blames Prince, the Time and Appollonia 6 (amongst other 80s acts) for degrading America's morality. Thank you, picasso! | |
