You talking about "Don't Stand So Close To Me '86"  Obviously LRC was before that..."What kind of fuck ending is that?" | |

Obviously LRC was before that...Actually the Police released 'Don't Stand So Close To Me' came out in 1980 a few years before LRC. (i know they got together and did that other version later, but the original (and best) version of that tune came out in 80") as for the 'Dont Stand So Close To Me" and "Little Red Corvette" similarities, yeah i always thought there was a taste of the former in the latter...espescially the main keyboard chord progression in the background at the start of the tunes ...seems very similar to me...and even the hazy haunting vibe at the beginnings of both songs and how they build to their choruses...I'm not saying Prince swiped it, but yeah i always thought they did some similarities too... | |

(i know they got together and did that other version later, but the original (and best) version of that tune came out in 80") right, and the later one was called "Don't Stand So Close To Me '86." a psychotic is someone who just figured out what's going on | |

DMSR seems to be talking about the 1986 version, not the original. "What kind of fuck ending is that?" | |

I don't really hear it. I'll have to pull both songs and listen to them again. Andy is a four letter word. | |

Ironically, I've ALWAYS definately heard The Police's "Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic" in "Private Joy". The keyboard hook in Private Joy is damn near identical towards the end of "Every Little Thing". Ya'll should go check that out! SynthiaRose said "I'm in love with blackguitaristz. Especially when he talks about Hendrix."

actually, you all missed it terribly. LRC is almost a carbon-copy of the supremes' "Up the Ladder to the Roof" Prince was very smart in how he borrowed
from the theme & overall structure of this classic supremes hit. the next time any of you guys get a chance to hear the "orig" LRC=Up the ladder Prince borrowed the beginning & more heavily the chorus itself... UP THE LADDER TO THE ROOF = LITTLE RED CORVETTE [Edited 10/9/06 12:14pm] "You can go Fly ya Mama's Kite" (c) Prince | |

I think most brilliant artists take what's ALREADY there & exapnd on it. here's another example: "Insatiable" = "Call me" from Aretha Franklin line them up next to each other & you'll see quite the same thing Prince is absolutely amazing at re-working things His way.

"Original" is a very relative term, especially dealing with a genius. There's many more examples from just Prince alone. Actually, THE MOST Carbon-Copy-isms that he's done over the years is a song from Rance Allen's 1972 lp "God's where it's at" The song is called "Look Around" this song can be dangerously compared to "Gotta Broken Heart Again" it's really lifted. "You can go Fly ya Mama's Kite" (c) Prince | |

Well then music doesn't flow through Prince then. He can't have a gift if he just changes others music. Alot of people do can do that. Creating something truly orginal makes someone a genius. i.e Hendrix; voodoo child | |

So Prince hardly creates original material? say it ain't so... well it is "Original" material just because he takes a few thing from his heros, doesn't mean it isn't original P was famous because he re-generated the Term of a Funk Rocker... Before than Funk was funk, and rock was rock, P stole from people like led zeppelin, parliment, aretha franklin, Jimi Hendrix and made Funk Rock a staple, Much how like Hendrix & The Doors stole from funk and Jazz created psychedelic rock. Its original, but it has its roots in other music.... Their is no such thing as a completely original song... so sorry I am a Rail Road, Track Abandoned

Of course but there's a difference between influence and direct stealing. Oasis are the biggest e.g of DIRECT LIFTING. Nearly every single song of every album contains either lifted bass, drums or guitar. | |

Nobody's above influence In order to make good music, you have to like and be inspired by equally good music... U wanna know why Prince is a brilliant song writer? who's one of his biggest influences, Joni Mitchel wanna know why P is a great Guitarist, who are his influences? Santana, jimi A Great funkster? GEorge Clinton, Parliment, Graham Central Station, so on... Great Rockstar? jimmy Page, Rockstar God Great Jazz player? Miles Davis can go on and on and on For each Talent p has, he was influenced by soomebody before him... WHICH IS NORMAL: I am a Rail Road, Track Abandoned
