And Prince was supposed to originally sing Huey Lewis's line..

Yeah Prince fucked up by not showing up. :smh:

Prince - Hello

Hello Hello Hello Hello

I tried 2 tell them that I didn't want 2 sing
But I'd gladly write a song instead
They said okay and everything was cool
'Til a camera tried 2 get in my bed

Hello My bed Hello Hello

I was sittin' pretty with a beautiful friend ("Oh darling")
When this man tries 2 get in the car
("'Ey Prince, c'mon, give us a smile eh?")
No introduction, "How U been?"
Just "Up yours, smile, that's right, you're a star!" (Star)

U call 'em bodyguards but I call 'em my friends
I guess I'm used 2 havin' 'em around
And cameras by nature like rewards
That's the trouble I get when I'm Uptown

I'm not afraid to die (Don't be afraid)
Oh no, there's a better place ('Cuz there's a better place 2 go)
I eat what I want (U can eat what U want)
Whole wheat toast (Anything is cool in moderation)
And I'm happy, and that's for sure

Prince didn’t want to be on ‘We Are the World’ because it was awful

He did what he wanted and never explained. In 1985, at the height of celebrity sing-alongs for Africa, Prince was the lone major artist to refuse recording “We Are the World.” It was read as arrogance and selfishness, but as his protégée Wendy Melvoin later explained, for Prince, it was all about quality control.

“He felt like the song was horrible,” she told author Alan Light for his book “Let’s Go Crazy: Prince and the Making of Purple Rain.” “And he didn’t want to be around ‘all those muthaf—kas.”

Let it be said: Prince wasn’t wrong!

Instead, he gave his money to charity quietly and often, donating $1 million to the Harlem Children’s Zone in 2011. “I want to thank Prince — I am touched and blown away by his generosity,” CEO Geoffrey Canada said at the time. “This is unprecedented in my lifetime to see an artist come forward and invest in today’s children.”

If he had actually said that in a interview for MTV.. :lol:

Found out that Journey guy is a racist, I don't fuck with him or his songs. I used to like the group, too.

He is? probably didnt have nice things to say about Arnell Pineda(his replacement) after they met at the R & R Hall Of Fame ceremony

Journey star Steve Perry lashes out at Sarah Silverman over racist slur story
By Lauren Parvizi on March 19, 2010 at 1:21 PM
Former Journey star Steve Perry has taken aim at comedienne Sarah Silverman for suggesting he used a racist slur to describe her humor.

Silverman refused to name names in her interview with Playboy magazine, but hinted that the “onetime lead singer of a very popular band from the 1980s” was Perry, joking, “I’ll just say this: After that, I stopped believin’,” which the rocker took as a reference to the Journey hit “Don’t Stop Believin’.”

She claimed the mystery man approached her after a show and said, “You’re my favorite comedian – you have the best (n-word) jokes.”

But Perry wasn’t laughing when he read the article, insisting he has never used the “n-word.”

He tells Rolling Stone magazine, “I’m really shocked. She was so friendly and so nice. I don’t understand why she would go there, it’s so bizarre. I don’t use that word, are you kidding? That’s so derogatory.

“I walked up to her after the show and I said, ‘I can’t believe that somehow you seem to be getting away with all these slurs and the n-word, I just can’t believe how you’re doing this,’ and I looked at my friend and I said, ‘I can’t believe how she’s getting away with this,’ and she looked at me and kind of smiled. It wasn’t like I was condemning her or condoning her.”

But Perry has no plans to boycott the outrageous comedienne’s shows: “You’ve gotta see her show because she uses every ethnic slur known to man that historically has been very unforgivable.”

i agree. perry was a great vocalist.

his vocals put journey on the map (again); made them more popular

but, imo, his verse in watw, was rather weak.

dionne's, tina's, bruce's and al's verses were the best.
Exactly, fuckers wanna act like Steve Perry in his prime wasn't a master vocalist.
