Er. "Say what you want about Prince"? I've honestly never heard anyone say anything but good about him. He has his "less than super spectacular" songs, I guess, but whatever misteps he may take (and I, again, don't know too much about his career - just the media stuff) - he still plays all those instruments, and makes up all that kick a** stuff.

I guess I was more enthusiastic because I thought this work he displayed on SNL was better than some other recent work I had heard. I hadn't heard him collaborate on a VOCAL that way in a long time. Doesn't mean it didn't happen, just means i didn't hear. :laugh:
Anyway, it struck me Mac-like in it's goodness. I mean, not like the Mac, but just a brilliant use of vocal tools of the artists. Great collab, a true, complicated, duet. That girl had a killer voice. It was like when you hear Stevie a la Midnight Special suddenly pop up with that massive "Why" harmony, and the "yeahahaha" after Christine ends with her own "yeaheaheah" and the two run together.

Ie, a sublime blending of voices.

I'd just like to add again that I hardly like any singers, or bands, but thought this performance kicked much.
