Prince offers an exclusive song to the Montreux Jazz
New version of «In a Large Room With No Light» by Prince - Exclusively available on the Montreux Jazz Festival’s homepage www.montreuxjazz.com (http://www.montreuxjazz.com) from Thursday July 15th.
Montreux, July 15th 2009. On July 18th Prince will conquer the Stravinski Auditorium stage and conclude the grand final act of the 43rd Montreux Jazz Festival. After the surprising announcement of two one-off concerts in one evening, another coup occurs: Prince recorded a song for the Montreux Jazz Festival, available exclusively on the official website www.montreuxjazz.com (http://www.montreuxjazz.com/), starting from July 15th. With his jazzy interpretation of the song "In a Large Room With No Light", we are given a foretaste of the upcoming concerts by the musical wonder from Minneapolis. "In a Large Room With No Light" is a groovy mix of soul, jazz and funk, whose melodic structure mounts to a guitar solo climax. The anticipation for the musical event of the summer is rising.
Listen to "In a Large Room With No Light" exclusively here (http://www.montreuxjazz.com/?lang=en&cat=news&subcat=news#flvPLayer__http://www.montreuxjazz.com/medias/videos/prince_video.flv__550__310__0)

Not as good as the original... what a shock! Check out 'Oh Yeah' on wendy & lisa's website... loads funkier!

Just how awful is this. The original is about 10000000 times better. I am really starting to believe that Prince died 15 years ago and an imposter has been in place ever since.
Putrid shit.

I'd like to know how a new exclusive track from Prince gets put out publically on the Montreux site whilst his own site that promised exactly this type of thing is left abandoned.
What an insult to the fans who shelled out a considerable sum to join Lotusflow3r.

That's because we mean nothing to him. I mean, we only put him where he is, and if it wasn't for us supporting him, he would be skint.
Anyway, I digress, Lotusflow3r is just a waste of time and MY money.
I'm sure there are others who will totally disagree....;)

Can you just let it go with the damn website?! It's the other way around, he's the one that means nothing to you, so why switch the tracks? He put himself where he is today because he chose to be there, we are just here to support it and he is thankful believe it or not. If you don't like the website, stay the **** off it and stop ranting about it. Jesus, you guys are so off topic on so many levels, it's like your waiting to say something negetive. :rolleyes:

Dude his recent albums haven't been great but they've still had their highlights! (IMHO Guitar, Fury, Incense and candles, Black sweat, Lolita, Wherever U go, Whatever U do, Tangerine, Hot Wit U, and almost all of the Gold Experience)

I wouldn't call TGX a recent album, its almost 15 years old and I agree is good.
As for his recent albums, the best by far, and IMO a true masterpiece is TRC, and thats 8 years old now. ONA Piano is also genius too.
The stuff that has been out commercially is forgettable, save a few tracks.

Funk was silent, Swanny just had lame comeback. Big deal.
And all of Prince's new stuff is awesome so please stop complaining....

I wasn't talking about recent, I was talking about within 15 years which it is, as you have said.

I guess it's better to hear what Fullofhotair has to say than be deaf.
"Fullofhotair". I got that a few months ago from another user. If your going to insult me, at least be original. Back on topic.
