Crap. Anyway, new Prince single/video.

All female band!

this is going to make me sound like a jerk but no wonder it sounds like cheryl crow

it's pretty bad.
i thought of bonnie raitt

love his hair tho

I dunno I kinda like it? Little bit 'Dirty Mind' in the hook, or something. My only complaint is that I was waiting for a big fuckoff dancey chorus and it never came ;_;

well, uh, the keyboards sound nice and prince-y at least

yeah, got that, too. but they're so quiet and underutilized, though, like he's saying "yeah, here's your precious "prince". now here's what i'm really about..."

Sorry...god knows i tried but couldn't make it to the end...

That actually wasn't bad. It wasn't great, but at least it wasn't a train wreck.

This is wack. Prince Autopilot again after "20ten" which was mostly really good. Cool look, though.

Groove's all right, but no tune at all. And he sounds real bored.

it kinda toodles along in 2nd gear but it never really shifts up into HEY PRINCE IS HERE

it's pretty bad.
i thought of bonnie raitt

I wish!

I actually really like this. Sounds like 'Take Me With You' a bit, particularly the synths.

if anyone else was playing this song you'd never say that

not true...it's a bad prince song, but so clearly written by him. if anyone else was playing it i'd think they were trying to do prince, "oh sheila" style.

i hear some take me with you

All female band!

Since Sheryl Crow's backing band is all male, yeah, it kinda makes you sound like a dick.

oh shit touché

more properly "shitouché"

"Black Sweat" was fine, but let's be clear, it is not in the same league as "Oh Sheila"

you play in your sandbox, i'll play in mine

Michael Dorf announced today a special March 7 tribute concert at Carnegie Hall, celebrating the music of Prince, with an incredible, star-studded lineup to be revealed soon. The concert marks the ninth installment of Dorf's annual series which has raised over $700,000 to date for music education programs for underprivileged youth.

Tickets for the event are onsale now at http://www.carnegieprince.com and the Carnegie Hall box office. Special limited VIP packages are also available via the website.

“Prince is one of the most prolific songwriters in my collection,” says Dorf, “and he makes my Top 10 when I think about the artists who have truly shaped modern music. In re-listening to his repertoire I realized how relevant, amazing, and danceable his work is. Carnegie Hall is going to party!”

Previous sold-out Carnegie concerts presented by Dorf have honored the music of such timeless artists as Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Elton John, R.E.M., Neil Young, The Who and The Rolling Stones. Each year 100% of the net proceeds from the concert are given to music education non-profits. This years recipients include: The American Symphony Orchestra’s Music Notes, Church Street School of Music, Young Audiences New York, FIKS (Fixing Instruments for Kids in Schools), Little Kids Rock, and the Center for Arts Education.

Those shows always sound fun. Makes me wish I was a rockstar so I could play at one.
