1999 you will know and you should check his song Kiss, you might know it also. Yeah I checked there on google, he played all 27 instruments on his first album. He later said, "I was a physical wreck when I finished." It must have taken some work in the 70s to do all your songs on your own on analogue equipment playing every instrument yourself. Something like that will probably never be done again, especially for the album to sell Millions of copies as no-one else would be anywhere near as good at playing guitar, drums, keyboard, piano etc just couldn't be done.

Yeah I only got into him maybe 5 years ago after seeing he played every instrument on his debut album and self produced it I had to check him out. I think that only Prince and 1 other guy actually worked on the album and the other guy only co-wrote a small part of 1 song everything else was done by Prince himself, every lyric, all the singing, all instruments played live - something like 20 odd instruments, all the production, mixing etc done by him alone imagine having that talent

Purple Rain to me is one of the best songs of all time, I listen to it at least once a week, mostly on Youtube as I like to see it being performed :defeated: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUou3NA5KtA If you didn't know Purple Rain was recorded live from that performance, which was the first ever live public performance of it.

The song Shallow just came on my Spotify and at first I thought it was Bruce Springsteen.

Probably never, before her I really only listened to Johnny Cash and Tupac for music I connected with when I as sad or stuff but then I found some of her songs and liked them and then went on to like almost every song shes made and become a bigger fan, she's the only person whos music I actually look forward to coming out or ever have as I mostly only liked people who were dead before. Before finding her actually I never listened to new music ever or ever had a clue when new music was coming out, I didn't pay any attention to music as all I listened to was mostly 60s/70s music, 90s hip-hop, current hip-hop but was mostly only the popular songs and whatever was on the radio. But since getting into her and then reading stuff about her online from twitter and things like this and becoming a fan of a musician which I never was before then I got more into trying to look for other new music or listen to other peoples albums, now I probably listen to about 50-60 new albums a year although i've yet to find anyone I really like even close to her. Even though her music is new, to me it is classic music that will last decades so I will probably still be listening to her so long as im alive.

Does anyone know other songs like this... Where people sing/rap about objects/places/things as people?

It sounds quite like

Shes that rich now she just bought a house next to the Dodgers Stadium to use when she goes to games there

Seeing beautiful scenery ruined by McDonalds signs and advertisements on this trip is going to make her think deeply about nature and how it's being ruined. The album will be postponed and changed to LFL 2 with more folk songs about the degredadation of national parks, the oceans, wildlife and global warming etc Beautiful Plants Beautiful Problems Fish - Plastic On My Mind God Bless Yosemite - And All The Beautuful Animals In It

Nothing to do with NFR but an MMA fighter coming out last night to Born To Die https://uTHOT/e6fro

Lana needs to make a song named that which we can play at times like this.

I was thinking more these types of sounds from him Which I think would fit Lana and are fairly similar to stuff from her music.

Do you think Salvatore sounds a bit like it? it's more subtle but I always thought Salvatore was pretty much like the theme tunes of Scarface and the Godfather combined, it has more the pacing of the Godfather and the violin but the beat under it is like a quieter version of the beat of the Scarface theme.

I bought Tupac's Poetry book a couple of weeks ago. Thought I would share some while we wait... Sometimes I Cry Sometimes when im alone I cry because im on my own The tears I cry R bitter and warm They flow with love but take no form I cry because my heart is torn and I find it difficult 2 carry on If I had an ear 2 confide in I would cry among my treasured friends But who do u know that stops that long to help another carry on The world moves fast and it would rather pass u bye than 2 stop and c what makes u cry Its painful and sad and sometimes I cry and no one cares about why My Dearest One!! There R no words 2 express how much I truly care So many times I fantasize of feelings we can share My heart has never known the Joy u bring 2 me As if GOD knew what I wanted and made u a reality I'd die 2 hold u or 2 kiss u or merely to see your face my stomach quivers my body shivers and my heart increases pace 2 give me $ or lots of gold would not be the same 2 me I prayed and watched the distant stars and finally u came 2 me! Cupid's Smile II I ran outside 2 feel the rain and I stayed outside awhile When the rain was done along came the sun and this was Cupid's Smile! The Sun and The Moon Your ways R similar 2 the rays of the sun Warm 2 many but 2 strong 4 some The more u R needed the brighter u shine Watched 4 2 long and your brilliance will blind The eyes of mortal men who threaten u with Doom They regret 2 c u set but it is time 4 the moon Forever and Today U say that u'll love me forever but what about today As the dusks become dawns and the years pass on will u love me the same way If so let us rejoice and bathe in constant pleasure If not spare my heart today and I shall recover before forever And if my doubts and ?'s upset u, forgive my fragile heart I just wanted 2 know if you'd love me forever Before Today would START! I would also recommend the book if you are one of those fancy people who put books on your coffee table for people just to skim through if they want as its just like 60 or so short poems and they are quite nice, some are political, some are dedicated to people who died or friends of his and other mostly random and about love. It's called The rose that grew from from the concrete. I've never read any other poetry books, so I dont know if this is normal for them but the left page has it in his handwriting and then the right page is the poem like typed in normal book form (lol), I hope Lana does that also as it's nicer to read the real handwriting for some reason.

Yeah, also if you look up the song, the producer of the song I think worked in the studio it was recorded in and its the only song he ever produced. He must have just been there that day and they got him to do it since he maybe knew what he was doing more than her.

Not sure if they are considered techno but these are well known songs in Scotland https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yK0Zqt8mXs4 https://youtu.be/k_UOnd53ksg https://youtu.be/cf_oUwpIBhw

Just made me think, I wonder if she will publish her poetry under a name like that E. W. Grant. It sounds quite good.
