PrintableI think Sly does have a spinal condition. Van Hunt looked like he didn't want to be up there either. But it was good to see him try I mean he hasn't made a public appearance in years.
You can make it if you try. | |

Even Bruce is struggling a bit. This song was performed with a lot more life in concert. | |

psychodelicide said: purplecam said: ain't that the truth but I'm glad sly showed up at all.  As SexyBeautifulOne said, Sly could have just said, "Awww fuck it, I don't want to have ANY part of this", but he didn't. He came on and rocked the blonde mohawk. Wish he'd come out with some new music, it's been too long.too long indeed. i hope his in good health to be able to make another record let alone another album. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

They started playing We Belong Together when U2 won for SONG OF THE YEAR!  | |

Well, I wasn't rooting for U2 to win song of the year, but because it's such a personal song for Bono, I'm glad for him. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Luckily for me I was able to see Bruce and Sly and I only had to watch 30 minutes of the show so I'm out of here. Idol and Lost anyday of the week...thank you. | |

  Hopes for some new music...somethin....June 19's Pop Culture Commentary - Beyonce'

Wow. Jay-Z suuuure added a lot to a classic song like 'Yesterday', what with all his "Uh uh uh uh"s and "Yeah thas right", and echoing a lyric or a word here and there a second behind Paul.  What a magnificent moment in musical history that was.  | |

Tucks all the little purple babies into bed. Puts a mint under every pillow. Here's hoping the ghost of Sly doesn't scare you while you try to dream good dreams. If the coat rack moves, just squeeze your eyes shut and sing the ooooo ooooo part of Purple Rain. Don't worry, it will soon pass. All you others say Hell Yea!!  | |

Mariah was extremly nervous or something because that chick can blow and cleary she was off Mary J Bliege is an average singer at best and doesn't belong on the same stage as some of these artist. Its amazing how that chick just gets over year after year after year...despite the fact that people can hear that she can't sing Its simply amazing Oh yeah Kanye West is a complete asshole and has about as much musical talent as I do and less of an ear. He will be all but forgotten 5 years from now and the biggest difference between he and Prince is that Prince is a Musician not a hustler trying make money in an industry that has completely Whored itself out and is hollow to developing real talent because these fucking hip hop artist can do it so much cheaper [Edited 2/8/06 18:59pm] Lets see you try to make a career last for longer than 10 years and talk back. Mary J can sang and was emotional on the end of "one", she FELT that jam. Mariah was very sketchy on "We Belong Together", but good on "Fly Like A Bird" Didnt make no sense whatever ...I hate how people get defensive over things that are not defensible...She can't sing live. Shes a studio artist and not a very god one there either. She can't sing who cares if she gets emotional...she always pulls that emotional card to cover up the fact that she can't sing. Damn how many times do we have to see her sound awful live before people just acknowledge it. Did you see her perfomrance during that Aretha Franklin Tribut on BET..she was horrible! She chick can't sing and its ok to be real about it [Edited 2/8/06 19:38pm] Dance... Let me see you dance | |

The first one is for the songwriter, the other for the artist. I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired! | |

Second...seeing Sly was fucking surreal...the mohawk man...WOW Third...You can pile on Kanye West for being an asshole all day (hey, i do it sometimes...) But to say that the man is a talentless whore is a a little off base....AND....CAN WE PLEASE STOP LUMPING ALL HIP-HOP ARTISTS IN THE SAME BOX...If you can't see the artistic merit in the likes of Common, Kanye, Nas, Jay-Z(when he's inspired), OutKast, and Rakim then go back to your nursing home (LOL...just jokes, but I'm saying...) Prince is my favorite artist and will always be ranked among the immortals...But shitting on newer artists to boost up our boy is pointless and silly....Let the current artists like Kanye enjoy their success... Fourth-- It was cool to see Paul MAC do his thing with Jay Z...very interesting, and weird...but in a cool way... | |

Kanye just threatened the Granny's to give him an award.
The College Dropout is living out the drum major fantasy he didn't fulfill while still in college, complete with bootyleaders.I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired! | |

Interesting Kanye performance. "Golddigger" would be a perfect Greek stepping song. Has the perfect beat.
...But what was that "Top of the World" finale crap? What a waste of lights, time, and smoke machines. [Edited 2/8/06 19:46pm] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου
