Thoughts???

LOL, trying very hard in every way, but has no voice whatsoever. And should lose the cowring.

256 views on Youtube currently. Can't say that it's working that well so far.

Prince is a singular talent, but even he had to start off from somewhere too. Anyways, I was more
fascinated with Z A C 's dependence upon Prince as a visual/artistic reference than the song itself,
which is not a good thing if Z A C ever wants to be considered unique or taken seriously.

The song is boring and meandering but I commend the guy for having the courage to put himself out there.

This is so sad and pathetic. He should be embarrassed. He tried every single Prince thing he could think of, it seems. Terrible...

Sorry...but this almost put me to sleep. Not in a peaceful way but more like a rabid dog being euthanized. I couldn't even take this song or video seriously. He can't sing either.

It is creepy how he is trying to look like his son.

the hair, the jacket, the facial expressions, the body mannerisms, the piano, the bathtub, the smoke, the rain, the bathtub, the boots, the 3rd Eye on the girl's back (cute girl), the bathtub, the lighting, the back-lighting, the guitar, the way he holds his guitar... all stolen

I like the synth chords and the piano. I pretty much like anything that is highly Prince-influenced. If Blood Orange or Andre 3000 put this out it would be better received. I say let the new generation wear their Prince influence on their sleeves. How can you like Prince music but not like Prince-ish music?

I agree.This almost seems like some kind of joke

This isn't Prince influenced- it's Prince stolen!

ZAC needs to stop watching those Prince videos...

Blood Orange and Andre 3000 have taken elements of their "P influence" and made it their own. I also hear different artists in their work too. ZAC looks and sounds like he watched the "PR" film on a loop one weekend and this is what he came up with on Monday morning.....There's nothing wrong with the young folks being influenced by P, but if he wants to be taken seriously he needs to go back to the drawing board.

Fair point. I had the song playing on my speakers without watching the admittedly derivative video so I was more focused on the song.

That's what I said/think too.

I thought it was utterly fascinating. I don't want to say "kinda like watching the remnants of a
trainwreck" but, I think you catch my point; it is awesomely bad.

Dude cannot sing for shit. No chance whatsoever,

Prince was the one and only.

bless his heart..

.

given today's pathetic "pop music climate"

I at least give this guy credit - real credit - for actually being able to

sing (!) & appear to play the piano & guitar.

2 bonus points for rockin' his hip uncle's fall sweater.

.

just makes me miss/appreciate THE ORIGINAL more
