Actually as far as I can tell, and I've been a Prince fan since the first album, Prince was VERY heterosexual, not  homosexual.

I love the original Purple Rain. This version. . . it's okay.

Cheers Lon and Stone!

Unintelligent rubbish like that statement has no place amongst good folk such as yourselves.

I really like times 0:30-0:49 in the song!

Stone,

I am no longer a homo-phobe.  I went through a phase between 2007-2010 where I was annoyed and slightly anxious when I would see one and/or how they were living; hair style, clothing or sometimes lack of it, lisp and that certain bright eyed, almost goofy/girly look in the face.

Now, after many years of reading Romans 1 in my KJV, and having worked with one for the past 3 years in a wood-working shop, I have matured and learned that they are no different than any other curse that can be reversed with good living and a knowledgeable deliverer if need be. My co-worker is actually a rather gross example of extreme perversion making reprobate jokes to us workers nearly everyday. He is not your typical metro-sexual that perhaps Prince could be classed as where they keep their male-male acts in secrecy. Nevertheless, I have hope for my friend and will continue to witness to him to get out of his Catholicism and Knights of Colombus which haven't done a thing for him the past 15 years; he takes over a dozen pharmacological meds for bi-polarism and schizophrenia, smokes about a pack and a half a day and as mentioned; reprobate.

Thanks Mark and Lon!

When John adds chorus effect at 2:25-2:39; more good stuff!

I've been listening to those parts the last 1/2 hour and realised that I don't like his tone. Slightly too much midrange. I don't like Dimarzio pickups.  I would like to hear his guitar with the Duncan "Pearly Gates" neck pickup through a PEC 250K potentiometer and Marshall Plexi, modified by Eddie Vaughn with Jensen Caps. and vintage Allen Bradley's, Boss Chorus CE-2, Something that will bring instantaneous peace to a woman.  ::)

Exactly, litefootdan. I have said my peace.

This debacle of a thread needs a 'do over'.  I have high expectations for this forum and the vast majority of the time it delivers.  I have come to expect thoughtful and helpful advice on music, audio, equipment, etc.  What I don't expect is offensive, ignorant, disrespectful and quite frankly irrelevant comments.  So, lets get back to what matters most here...

Check out John Petrucci playing one of Prince's best songs "Purple Rain"...

In the context that I used piece or peace....both really do apply to use.....homophones.....look at you, wow.

Anyway, you're still a tool because you did not let sleeping dogs .....you no that word ..... .

Corey? Yeah, ........ .  Stay out of the States.......please.  

....I used no instead of know.....now here it applies.  Hater's are gonna hate.

No it's: stone of tone.  

Trump with the Nuclear Football = not a good thing. This is some extreme Executive Branch Power....I don't think he can handle.
