YFS... songs from bands that Prince helped make famous?

[Papa Deuce]

I was playing my iPod and a few songs from his proteges came on, and I thought, "what a good topic for this version of Your Favorite Songs....

Here are mine:

The Time.... Gigolos Get Lonely Too, The Walk

Sheila E.... Glamorous Life

Vanity.... Sex Shooter

OK, and on a lesser note, because these folks had stuff that was famous without Prince,....

Sinead O'Connor.... Nothing Compares 2 U.

Sheena Easton.... Sugar Walls

Before I list mine, a couple of sidenotes -

"Sex Shooter" is Apollonia 6, not Vanity 6 - Vanity was slated to play the "love interest" in "Purple Rain" but Vanity and Prince had a falling out prior to the shooting of the film, so her "part" (both in the movie and the group) was recast to another woman. Did you get "Vanity" on this one from an illegal download?

What do you mean by "famous without Prince"? "Nothing Compares 2 U" was written by Prince, although he had nothing to do with Sinead O'Connor's recording of it. However, Prince wrote and produced "Sugar Walls", so I don't know how you can say "without Prince" on that one. Can you clarify?

Here's a few of mine:

"Jerk Out" - The Time
"Can You Help Me" - Jesse Johnson's Revue
"High Fashion" - The Family

Sinead and Sheena Easton were famous BEFORE he wrote that song. They didn't need Prince to become famous.


Dude, I do not ILLEGALLY download anything. Can't a guy have a memory lapse without being asked if he had an illegal download?

 

[Jon Tuck]

Rick offered it from You Tube was that illegal? Just curious.

Now I get what you mean... but was Sinead really famous before her one hit?

If you're listening to an ipod, all but the smallest of them have this SCREEN where you can read what's playing.. where does memory come into it?

Dude... I don't download illegal crap, and I take offense to your question. But to answer it... who says I even looked at the screen? I heard it and thought Vanity.... Do you have any other questions about my integrity you want to ask?

You have to excuse him Papa it's popular these days to try and hang people in public even when there is no reason he's just trying to be popular

If anyone has any questions about someone's integrity the classy way to do it would be by PM.

I'm calling bull. everyone knows that when you are listening to an ipod, your eyes are locked on the screen

I took your word for it, and dropped it, after my first post. Why be offended more than once, at most? I may be giving you grief, but I'm not accusing you of anything, other than getting the artist wrong.

If I offended you, or anyone in this thread, I apologize.
