I am a huge fan of TTD, but until recently I never felt that song so much. But lately I have started to really love it, so I agree with everything you are saying wink .
With a very special thank you to Tina: Is hammer already absolute, how much some people verändern...ICH hope is never so I will be! And if, then I hope that I would then have wen in my environment who joins me in the A....

Love Love Love That song! There is a great performance on Youtube, check it out.
Thanks for the laughs, arguments and overall enjoyment for the last umpteen years. It's time for me to retire from Prince.org and engage in the real world...lol. Above all, I appreciated the talent Prince. You were one of a kind.

great song!

I'm waitin' for his next studio album. The last I heard of him was the wildcard album.
amazing, but he should try and top it.

Awesome song! Fantastic vocal! One of a number of TTD masterpieces that deserved better than what they got from the music industry.

His latest studio album is "Angels & Vampires" volumes 1 & 2, available by download only on his website. He also recently released a live concert cd of "Angels & Vampires" called "Influenze in Firenze". Here's the link for all this:

What are you talking about? His last studio release ("Angels & Vampires") has 40 songs on it....that's more than the last 3 Prince albums combined. (no disrespect intended, just stating a fact). It's available by download only, here's the link:

ok- lets figure this out ...

since 1987 ... what ... 3 albums OUT and listend to by the general public ...

1 album which i loved - that u really cant find anywhere but on the net called "wildcard" ...

oh and this vampires one .... which i tried to download a few times ... but they want credit cards and they also want to tell u how many british pounds it will cost --- but after 2-3 tries i gave up ...

so that is 5 albums .... in 20 years . not bad . u win . i lose . ok ... oh i forgot this "live" album - which i will no doubt look up ! cool

never mind the last time he came to the US - i saw him ... loved it ... wanted to see him when he GOT back to the east coast on that swing - but he cancelled the tour abruptly ...

I don't fully trust my pc anymore and I won't give out my, or anybodies credit card details with it.

Those internet albums will have to wait.
I'm not happy about this.

well ... i admit ... it was just "stupid me " ... in regards to figuring it out ... and downloading , etc ... but i truly feel i dont have the time ... I would rather just buy em from someone who has downloaded (did i say that ?) or buy em at a store ... especially with the TTD experience and the currency problem/issues...

I think TTD is missin alot of the boat/market ... not to beat him up too much cus i am a fan - but Prince did it - and i had issues with Prince's website and the whole license issue ... i wasted hours figuring it out ! so it is just dumb me ...

TTD is so talented - he should be heard by all ... and his albums should be in the stores or amazon.com , etc ... wink

damn u r the man!!! i need 2 download that live album when i get home!!

now if only there was a live concert of the wildcard tour

okay back 2 the thread:

let her down easy is one of those tunes that catches u in the lyrics and visuals of it. the line "and her grandfather adores her of course" is so moving.
man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81

i had problems at 1st as well trying 2 download both albums at once, but was able 2 once i selected one album at a time on seperate CC's since it was looking like a duplicate purchase

My friend Emilio is right about the albums which can be downloaded. He missed out on the DVD 'Live @ Blue Note Milano'. It's the first live concert of Angels & Vampires.

WildCard was not only available at his website but also at some shops around the world. Nowadays on the website it's only available as downloads.

The man is touring again. Check out the website for the tourdates and places:
www.sanandamaitreya.com/concerts.html

I've got my tickets already for the only show in the Netherlands. I can hardly wait. I'm really looking forward to it.

I come to a total of 9 albums, but I added his album with the Touch and the double greatest hits album.

Yeah I really love the song ... but 'Holding On To You' ... man that's a beautiful song ...

Want to see, read & hear more?

Get your concert tickets now!!!

Don't worry he'll probibly also come to the states. I'm still hoping he'll be selling A&V 1/2 and 'Influenze in Firenze' as CD at his concerts.

Guys, don't take this the wrong way, but I've bought plenty of music online from both Sananda and Prince and have never had any problems. It's easy. Just select what you want, insert credit card info, then download. I don't get what's so hard about it. Believe me, I'm not trying to say that in a mean way, but it really is pretty straight forward. I remember that just 2 or 3 years ago, I also felt that buying a cd in a store was much better...while I still prefer that as well, I've totally adjusted to buying music online and burning it onto a cd. Whether or not you like it, the reality is that it's the way of the future and it's here to stay. Also, this method allows artist to get MORE music out and to get it out more quickly and with less and less interference from music industry people who know nothing about art & music.

the non-english contribution page is a start. that threw me off and then i think because of that i purchased the wrong cd so when i entered a code it threw the system off and i was never able to upload...but anyways.

i love Let Her Down Easy.

He's one of the few artists of whom I dislike none of his songs. In other words I like all his songs, but do have my favourites. Besides 'Holding On To You' I really love 'You Will Pay Tomorrow' and 'I Don't Want To Bring Your Gods Down'.
