Prince vs. Warner Bros (the Flaming Lips thing) Honestly, if Warners can finance The Flaming Lips' four-disc set Zaireeka, which was meant to be played on four separate players simulataneously, as well as Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, and on top of that finance Wayne Coyne's new improv film (set in a spaceship in his backyard) Christmas On Mars, and signed Prince to one of the biggest deals ever, not to mention promoting RHCP and R.E.M. (not exactly stable, mainstream acsts) as well as they have, how could they not be willing to meet Prince's needs as a professional artist?
Please answer this question using an even longer sentence. | |

I don't know, WB says that they did everything they asked, but I thinbk Prince was mad about contractual things, and at that poiint he decided to just finish his deal with them, and do things his way. WB also probably wasn't as enthusiastic about helping him after he started getting really mad.
was my sentence longer? BY THE POWER INVESTED IN ME BY GOD ALL NEGATIVITY BOWS | |

was my sentence longer? possibly. I did use parenthetical phrases, and those probably don't count. | |

I think that Warner Brothers Records and any and all wholly-owned subsidiaries and DBAs of said label, henceforth known as WB, were unable to meet the needs of the artist, Prince Rogers Nelson, henceforth known as the artist, due to irreconcilable differences between the artist and WB in relation to artist rights, royalties, promotion and ownership of master recordings, in that WB employed standard recording industry practices under a legal and binding contract, whereas the artist would have preferred to have complete and total control of his career and any and all revenue generated by the sales or airplay of his music.

I know. It sucks to have a job, huh? All that money...insurance and things...I just remembered that WB also has Jane's Addiction, and have supported them for years. WB doesn't seem like such a bad company. | |
