It’s official
I love u
mr.FWV
I will remove any thoughts of ‘making a suggestion’ out of my head
These are BRILLIANT !
Disclaimer: I have been out on my boat drinking beer since noon EST. That said… tee hee
LOL @ Andrew!
Look at the effect these 7″s have on us!!!
I know right? I love it.
Hey! Wait a minute! C’mon Ric, no comment on the ink stamp stamper of ink stamps? Or whatever it was I said? I thought that one was pretty clever? Maybe not. And, you owe me a comment on that last Cherrelle post, too.
Re:Mr Stamper of Stamps…any lack of reference here is simply down to the fact that I know it won’t be the last we see of him, and hear from you…LOL!
Quite true
”Let’s Pretend We’re Married” me recuerda a ”The Belle of St. Mark” de sheila E, Claro esta que es producido por Prince. EL es un genio y se copia asi mismo. de todas maneras el hombre es un icono de los 80′s.
convenido
Though I am not sure the word “edit” should be used so close to “Let’s Pretend We’re Married”, I will say thanks anyway.
? I don’t get it? Gonna have to ‘splain that one to me.
This song should never be edited. In fact, I even don’t like hearing it without DMSR.
Ah, OK, and yes, I agree 100%
Dear Mr.FWV
Hi mine Liebchen, It just shows how many of your ‘reader’s’ have their minds in the gutter.
(Move along so mine can pass lol !)
Musically ‘married’ perhaps – like so many fans of this blog.
And thats why I decided Not to make any ‘more suggestions’.
As for the subject of ‘Edits’.
I got the David Bowie – Station to Station 5 CD set + one CD has all the Singles released in the 7 Inch [radio] versions.
And since this was the first time I’d heard them they sound like Totally Different ‘recordings’ in a way.
They should be added to a re-issue of the the Album if the Label has any sense.
Until those days we rely on fabulous blogs like this xx !
How dare you besmirch the mindset of the readers here? LOL
That’s a Fucking compliment ! LOL
I went into a HMV shop and could find nothing
except a Chic Singles Album that was I think there 1st proper 7” A-Side Version’s ‘Collection’
And for Prince and all things Purple @the mo
You seem to be filling that ‘Gap’ in any Uber Prince fan’s
‘Collection’
