yes
Studies have shown the ass crack of the average Prince fan to be abnormally large. This explains the ease and frequency of their panties bunching up in it.

I love all of the clips but, the "Slave To The Rhythm" performance gives me goose bumps because she looks like such a goddess and the band played the song so beautifully...She's just a beautiful walking/singing piece of art.

I love her to life but I can't see (or hear) the Grammy's happening. She is so awesome, though. Anybody see her live show recently? If so, setlist please!

Thank you. I watched the clips and ordered the album (finally).

I love Slave to the Rhythm. The chords, percussion and strings... watching her I actually got a little misty. Beautiful and nostalgic. I can't believe she's over 60. Please let her tour come to the US.
Been gone for a minute, now I'm back with the jump off

I saw Boomerang a while back and I am really interested to know about Ms. Grace. The clips on You Tube do not do any justice where do I start?

i think "the compass point sessions" is better than any of the greatest hits collections you'll find out there for grace jones. it's an overview of her classic 80s material, including some remixes, extended versions, rarities and of course plenty of her classics. HIGHLY recommended. nod

Agreed.

This is a great introduction to the Goddess that is Grace.

Great for established fans as well. I play it in my studio all the time.

cool

I'd like to see it, but I doubt it, because she's seems to be only showcasing the album to European audiences. The Grammy's have been little more musically inclusive in recent years...Herbie Hancock won Album of the year last year...anything is possible. She's been on award shows in the past as a presenter. I think the audience would be blown away. I can totally see her doing William's Blood, she's never had a song like that that lends itself well to being played live...I think it would be great to see. nod
