Ormion Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 I always liked specific Prince songs especially the Purple Rain album, but I never dug deeper in his music. The last year I checked more and more of his stuff and now I can say that I'm a huge fan. Let's hear some love fo this weird motherfucker! http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzkN11rjLSc http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDduqH5cciQ http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uoo2KioueCQ http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Xq2qiVeYYw You got love a video where the woman plays the guitar and the man dances like that. and of course http-~~-//www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3AkQZcD_ME Bonus picture: Quote
draeke Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 Prince, THE ARTIST, THE SIGN. He truly is a gifted singer, and you have got to admire it was never too clear for which side he was swinging...and that added to his character. Musical-wise, some classics he did! Quote
Procyon Posted December 14, 2012 Posted December 14, 2012 some queer he is yeah ?? Go figure...anyway, here's talent at its best in this version of "Crimson and Clover", IMO. It is a pity that the audio is crap. One thing that I love about Prince is his musicians, sexy, fatal women. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xs9g82_crimson-clover-prince-sheila-e-ellen-degeneres-2009_shortfilms Quote
technosomy Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 had a friend in the industry and he reckoned at one stage in the 90's and beyond 1 in 50 pop songs that was floating about was written by prince, and have witnessed so many credits in albums with songs written by him. that's alot of songs madonna is another they both still very active writing one hit wonders Quote
Dolmot Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 Weird timing. I've never bought, owned or even downloaded any Prince material, but very recently I got a freebie promo album with a second-hand order of completely unrelated CDs. Coincidentally, I ripped and play-listed it today without even seeing this topic. Not a fan of the music yet, but he's a funny character. (Character - get it!? I don't. Gah. Sorry, I'm running on very low steam today after two weeks of travelling.) Quote
Sideffect... Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 I like purple rain, and there stops my knowledge, never digged any deeper... But I do think he's a talented artist and has an unique style... Quote
technosomy Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 One hit wonders? you know, one hit! an artist comes out of nowhere with an awsome catchy pop song, release an album, maybe one or 2 other songs that are ok, then you never hear from them again. who writes those songs - them? maybe, or someone else, comissioned by the industry Quote
needle ninja Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 I feel I should add something about our local celebrity. Come visit here Ormion and I'll give you a tour of Paisly Park Studios. Quote
Procyon Posted December 15, 2012 Posted December 15, 2012 Prince has a history of writing too many good songs that would fill more than 2 albums a year, and some of his songs he thinks are better sung by a female voice (though his falsetto is almost feminine, but he uses it in a hilarious way and sounds ridiculously good, like in "If I Was Your Girlfriend"), like "Nothing Compares 2 U" or "I Feel For You", both written by Prince and sung by Sinnead O'Connor and Shaka Khan.

Ormion Posted December 15, 2012 Author Posted December 15, 2012 you know, one hit! an artist comes out of nowhere with an awsome catchy pop song, release an album, maybe one or 2 other songs that are ok, then you never hear from them again. who writes those songs - them? maybe, or someone else, comissioned by the industry Ah sorry, I thought you called Prince one hit wonder and I was like wtf?
