Dont dumb yourself down for the benifit of some net fools.....You and I both know that a real adult/man wouldn't publicly bitch about another mans post * we all have the freedom to say whatever we want in an open forum such as this
unless they were trying to shine some light on themselves..
Whats wrong with an orgnote If you have such a problem with another mans opinion...?

Dont waste your time playing around in "ELECTRIC NEWBIELAND"

RIGHT ON !

well, at least you're listening with an open mind.

I can hear the "Fury" comparisons. I loved the SNL version of "Fury" completely, but I felt the album version was watered down. I still liked the tune, but there was something about the effect of Prince's vocals on the studio version that bug me. And that effect carries over into "Guitar"- kinda whiney, bratty sounding vocals in the verses.

the snl version fury of fury should of replaced the Brit awards video on the single.

uhh...NO! Prince is the KING of tipped hat wearing...Alisha is on a Prince tip when her hat and mascara.

Mong said:

ok ok! I went and listened to the original...which I hadn't done since it came out and it does sound different...sorry. but it is the same song...so it doesn't sound that different.

jaynoonan said:

hey jay!!! me too, but i still want it for my phone!

I really like it, it's not crap

I keep reading people saying they are listening to the ENTIRE song... how the hell did you do that? I got the ringtone....which is identical to the video....where's the entire track?

F___ it... I give up. U clearly don't know me, and since U just joined the ORG in MAY 2007, you're a newjack. Think what U want, and assume what U want. Stay cynical and hopeless, youngblood... U R better off that way. U essentially have no reason 2 trust me anyway, so va fanculo in the meantime...[/quote]


hey everyone..this giovanni guy obviously has some very delicate connection into the prince camp. He sure is protecting it as if he's afraid of losing it:) Anyhow, we all know what's going to happen - he'll release an album that will havce some great tracks but will miss overall. He'll put out a song called 'guitar' with the absencse of a great guitar line/solo/playing. Oh...he did that! I feel another 'fury' coming on.

SexyBeautifulOne said:

he's still innovative..but i'd imagine at this point in his life he feels like all he has left 2 prove is that he can still keep up (vs. fighting 2 stay in the lead)...of course we get songs that are so perfectly designed that you expect every turn, but he doesn't even have 2 do that- he could have retired by now if he wanted 2 and it would have made sense....by now his cheif concern is probably finding a good wife that'll stick around, building wealth (by any means nes), and getting right with God...the end result is precision pops songs that satisfy the attention span of today's 4-week mp3 single music consumer [which means he's playing it smart]....even looking at the video- [imo] all his creativity goes into how his image comes across...i think he cool with being "grandpa" now- even tho he fought it for so long- as long as he's smooth about it. So we get "Grandpa Smooth" instead of "Exciting uncle Prince" (which was what the 90's Prince was sposdta be)

...make sense?

{of course this is all coming from someone in his early 20's- i'm sure those around his age could read him better}

WOOOO Prince is the frontpage of YouTube!

thats what im talking about, go P!

thats what i call promotion, evryone will see that, play it and love it..

(hopefully)

after listening to the version that's on YouTube, I have to say, this is pretty excellent. the only thing that bugs me is that the scream at the beginning feels tacked on. there needs to be a little more space between it and when he starts singing. do love the scream, though.

I dont mind a smart arse if they can back up what they say. Sadly Giovanni can not, or at leaset refuses to. Thus puts himself up for ridicule. I welcome a blag.

Sounds like 90's prince. me likey.

more guitar

needs more cowbell

Even a friend of mine who doesn't like P at all & kinda hated everything I sent 2 her admitted that she thought that guitar was da bomb!

Whats with the goofy bass line?

And the lyrics????

"Get dirty at the club again.
(I'm) usually 'round your waist like a chain but then I got the call.
So I jumped in my car.
I love you baby but not like I love my guitar."


Where is the wit? Where is the word play? Where is the poetry?

This one is almost as bad as "I Like It There"

So has anyone downloaded this song for their phone? What's the file format? What's the quality?

emesem said:

You must not like garage rock? Personally, "I Like It There" is one of faves of his from the 90s. I like it when he's all cheeky and loose.

What is a "goofy bass line"?

emesem said:

The wit :
I love you baby and I wish you well ,
I'll send you a letter when I learn how to spell

The wordplay :
You're high enough to call me ,but you can't reach the bar

The poetry :
have you even heard the song ?

Oh , and I Like It There is one of Prince's all-time best rock songs ....
thank god he's back to injecting some passion into his rock performances
once again instead of rock-by-numbers , the man is back on form

The stuff you quoted is very cheesy.
