I know you guys have heard of the classic and wonderful piece by Billy 'In My Solitude'

"In my solitude you haunt me
With reveries of days gone by
In my solitude you taunt me
With memories that never die

I sit in my chair
Filled with despair
Nobody could be so sad
With gloom ev'rywhere
I sit and I stare
I know that I'll soon go mad

In my solitude
I'm praying
Dear Lord above
Send back my love"

I love this song so much, while listening to it, I realized the trumpet sounds remarkably similar to 'Somewhere Here On Earth' played by Christian Scott. In fact the whole song sounds very inspired by 'Solitude'. I know Prince loves Jazz, and I am pretty sure he appreciates Billy...I am not sure if this was done in the vein of the song, but it sounds very crisp!

What do you think?

It's a great song nonetheless, and it's timeless! Remarkable work! Solitude always gives me the blues, when I am feeling blue..It makes me feel worst in a good way. lol.

Can you hear the similaries in these two; and if not have you always appreciated these tracks? I am not comparing them in saying one is better or lesser. It's good music, so IMO they each transcend time and the both of them are just as great!
