Song Of The Day : Prince / Cause & Effect

i am here. where are you?
ladies and gentlemen…..

cause and effect
hey, hey, hey

if had the chance to do it all again
i wouldn’t change a thing, except my next of kin
there’s something on the tip of my tongue
-got a taste for sin
if you stamp your passport full of regret
you have nothing to remember but a lot to forget
leave no enemies, leave no debt

made in the image of cause and effect
to no other man am i the subject
i am what i am because & effect
cause & effect
hey, hey, hey

If i could talk to myself back then right now
i’d say ‘son you might wanna, stick around
something amazing is about to go down’
if i could leave myself just 1 little note
one that husbands and fathers wrote
it say ‘you need to be a superstar or grow up,
but not both’

made in the image of cause and effect
to no other man am i the subject
i am what i am because & effect
cause & effect
hey, hey, he

cause and effect
ladies and gentlemen
rock/roll rock/roll

i am here. where are you?
ooooh oooh. haha. hey eh heh oh hoh

don’t let them say your paper’s worth more than gold
i see a generation lay down before they get old
and getting endlessly sold
you need compassion for one another
righter than wrong
that’s what needs to be at the heart of every past
and future soul song

made in the image of cause and effect
to no other man am i the subject
i am what i am because & effect
cause & effect
hey, hey, he

look at y’all. brains splattered
all over…moneyapolis

ladies and gentlemen
rock/roll rock/roll

Purple & Gold : Le nouveau titre inédit de Prince

Et qu’il le reste Inédit ! Qu’il le reste !

Donc, son Altesse est devenue fan de Football Americain, et en particulier de son équipe locale, les Minnesota Vikings qui ont le bon goût de s’habiller en Purple & Gold

Après Purple Rain et l’album Gold, l’occasion est trop belle.

Et donc, dans son enthousiasme, et pour les encourager (un gros match est prévu ce week-end semble t’il) le voilà qui pond une chanson !

Bon j’ai écouté, et il est hors de question que je poste un lien vers ce truc. Les mots me manquent

Et d’un coup, une peur me prend…. Purple Rain, Gold… Ca peut pas venir d’une équipe de foot ??!!!

Nooooooooooooon………………

Song Of The Day : Prince / People Without

(extrait de l’indispensable Small Club)

Un réveillon à Saint-Barth, ça vous tente ?

Bon ok, cette année Johnny n’y sera pas. Et ça, c’est vraiment dommage.

A titre de lot de consolation, vous pourrez y voir Prince, venu cachetonner pour 500.000$ à la fiesta d’un milliardaire russe.

Crisis ? What crisis ?

Song Of The Day : Prince / Witness

Between 1982 and 1988 Prince releases 6+1 of the most amazing albums of the 80’s : 1999, Purple Rain, Around The World In A Day, Parade, Sign Of The Times and Lovesexy. The Black Album is also released and immediately cancelled. A total of 75 songs + several b.sides (remember when records had a b.side ?). Among those, almost everything is brilliant.

But that was not all. Dozens of unreleased tracks appeared over time. Tracks he recorded and didn’t release, propably considering that they didn’t worth it.

“Witness” is one of those. I bet many artists would have picked it up as a single instead.
