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
Song of the day : Prince & The Revolution / Little Red Corvette (Live ‘85)

Song Of The Day : Madonna / Across The Sky (unreleased track from Hard Candy)
via Hard Candy
Not a very good track (like almost everything else on the album), but unreleased tracks are always interesting to listen to.
Song Of The Day : Julian Casablancas / 30 Minutes Boyfriend
You can’t finish 2010 without listening to “Phrazes For The Young”, the solo album by The Strokes leader
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.

Song Of The Day : Veronique Sanson / Bernard’s Song
L’ombre d’Isaac Hayes et du son Blaxploitation planent au dessus de ce titre de 1977. Ray Parker Jr y assure la guitare funky.

Song Of The Day : Jesse Johnson / Crazay (w/ Sly Stone)

Alors que le nouvel album de Jesse Johnson sort mardi sur les plateformes de téléchargement légal, un peu de nostalgie avec ce morceau qui aurait dû devenir un classique.
Et NON, Jesse Johnson n’est pas un clone de Prince. On peut même se demander qui a le plus influencé l’autre.
Song Of The Day : Osunlade / Crazy You
