Re: NPNY: Anyone know if Prince made any response
Prince's death would have as much impact on his fans as MJ's death. If it doesn't it will more than likely be because Prince will have died of old age. Beyond the fans; the rest of the world will take notice and move on. There won't be this annoying over coverage like MJ's death because there probably won't be any controversy to report I'm sure. "Today Prince died of natural causes. Considered by many to be a musical genius. And since we can't turn his death into a media circus; let's see what Madonna is up to" Can you tell I've had enough of hearing bout MJ's death. :) As for Prince destroying his fan base. Perhaps. But the last time I checked this was still a list where we discuss Prince no? Yes a lot of us will bitch and moan; but point us in the direction of some new (or unreleased) Prince tracks and we'll lap it up :) BTW if MJ's death has done anything, it's made me appreciate that regardless how much of an ass Prince can be sometimes; he hasn't made of mess of things and is still putting out music this late in the game. (knock on wood) Who would have thunk it? :) Victor still buy his new albums. Btw. Not really much Prince talk going on there. Membership is pretty low. I don't recall the last time we had a new subscriber. It took you a week to reply :-D -Derek> Lockhart, Daryle [GSM] wrote: Interviews all day!! him grow up and become whatever he became.

Re: NPNY: Prince Interviewed by Tavis Smiley: Fascinating Talk
Tavis is on again at midnight (or round bout that time) on PBS 13 on Time Warner Cable (or however you get PBS 13). Look and you will see that it says Prince is on the late night showing on both nights.

Re: NPNY: Two New Pics on LotusFlower site
I don't know. I looked at the image and realized that Prince is getting old like the rest of us. And maybe he's just not trying to hide the fact. I mean really; the guy's going be hit his 60s eventually and the ravishes of age will effect him too. God help us if he goes the route of other aging rock stars decides to attempt butt-less pants and 80s, "Purple Rain" hair to recapture his youth.

Re: NPNY: Re: [thebumpsquad] NEW Prince web site: PrincefamSunited.com w.NEW song
Only Prince could diss his fans with a song that most of his fans will be dying to hear and probably enjoy. Damn..pure genius. It's like getting beat down while Purple Rain is playing in the background :) Victor Belinda wrote: It is a great song, but the man is threatening to hit us with rocks if we come at him again. That's what he says in the song. If it's a publicity stunt. Good 4 him. Why not create ur own bad press. Get a jump on the CJs of the world. Nobody said he was a marketing genius, but any press is good press I guess. He needs to do something productive with that damn site. I love the song but I hear him taking mad jabs at us. But it's not like he hasn't done that b4. I'm still vexed about the 'fan is short 4 fanatic' comment. U'd think he'd have taken the word short out of his dictionary. *he he* :-) ~B On Nov 9, 2007 8:46 AM, Derek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: -- "Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out." -Anton Chekhov - NewPowerNewYork Mailing List website: Www.NPNY.Org - Unsubscribe?

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth Anyone Buy It?
I purchased it from Amazon..though I have already heard it. There's no pleasing you is there Derek? :) Victor Derek Kelly wrote: Just curious by a show of hands if anyone purchased "Planet Earth" today. I heard they were fly off the shevles and falling swiftly into the cut-out bin! I will probably purchase it before the end of the week so I can get it at the lower $9.99 price. Definitely not worth 14.99 to 16.99 to me...

Re: NPNY: Planet Earth...Listen to it.
Regardless of what musical style made the term iconic in music; we know Prince is just using religious imagery in the same way he's done countless time. I mean how is this any different than the song "7"; which is full of religious imagery. As for it being used for something trivial; I don't know. I read the lyrics someone transcribed and while I'm not exactly sure what he's singing about exactly; doesn't sound trivial :) Victor NPS wrote: Of course I understand that it has Biblical origins... still its invocation in popular music was pretty much made iconic in roots reggae. And no matter what the origins, his use of the term for something trivial is clumsy. The Lion of Judah will slay his enemies? What enemies? Sony BMG?

As for the Chaos & Disorder comparison..Chaos & Disorder is actually a good album IMHO. Of course I prefer my Prince being his own eclectic self rather than Prince trying to imitate the crappy popular music that's "hip" with the kids today. Prince DOES need to forget about what might be popular with the rest of the world and get back to doing HIS music though. Sit down with Wendy & Lisa (or alone since we know he can do it) and produce a quirky Prince album. And NO I don't mean another Purple Rain. I'm thinking more "Lovesexy" or "Come".
