5.0 out of 5 stars PRINCE (The Producer) has returned!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, October 29, 1999

This review is from: The Greatest Romance Ever Sold (Audio CD)

From his forthcoming album on November 9th 1999 that is being distributed through Arista Records, is this first single. First of all I love the cover. Parke has the best ideas! I love the plug on the back (He's holding a copy of the forthcoming album "Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic"). The song is amazing. When I first heard it I thought it was ok with a catchy chorus but after hearing over and over again I realize how brilliant it really is. It must be heard lots to be appreciated but that doesn't usually happen on radio stations around where I live, they play it once in awhile and that's it. That's why it won't be a big hit on the radio, they'll just keep on replaying that other sampled crap. The hook in the track is amazing ("So this is where you end - and you and I begin") and the chorus will just get implanted in your brain. The remix is awesome as well. It has an instrumental part in it that has sounds of synthesizers that Prince used to use in the years of 81-82 but it's not dated sounding at all. Eve has a fair and respectable part on the remix. chorus and a bit of the bridge), it should (sometimes) feature someone else on the track, it should contain some new lyrics (all new lyrics except for chorus and bridge) and it should be funky (It really is), not just some cheap programmable drum beat for the clubs with the exact vocals from the original version. Another point about the original version, I'm glad he album version will be about a minute longer. I hate when I get an album version on a single! I think i've said enough on this single. (I'm still a little upset that it wasn't up here in the stores meaning I had to pay about $16 on top of the price to get it to me from Amazon.com [Good old Amazon.com]). Be prepared for "Rave Un2 the Joy Fantastic" on November 9th because it's going to be good..........

Okay, since da man can do virtually no wrong musically, my review is positive. If he could run his web site and business like david bowie runs his, i think we would all be a lot happier.

and just who do you think the artist is targeting now as an audience?

(hint, look at 1999 - the remaster.)
