Thanx 2 bizzie + DarlingNisi + Prince.org + PrinceVault.com!

Both songs were released on streaming platforms with the following artwork.

1 is entitled "FUNKNROLL!" which sounds like the Chili Peppers meet Onyx. The other is a cover of one of Prince's favorite songs of the year, the Alice Smith joint "Another Love". The original reminded Prince of some of his 80's work with The Revolution. The revamped version goes slower and WAY harder with a revved-up ending in the vein of Fleetwood Mac.

"Big City" is an unreleased track that was streamed (in part) as a live rehearsal on 3rdEye TV Show # 4 on 23 June, 2013. An instrumental version was first heard played live on 17 March, 2013 (am) at La Zona Rosa, Austin, TX, USA, during the SXSW show Prince performed for Samsung. A full version with lyrics was first performed live on 13 July, 2013 Auditorium Stravinski, Montreux, Switzerland.

It is assumed that a studio version was recorded in Spring 2013, although this has not been confirmed. It is not known if the track is intended for inclusion on a future project.

According 2 The PrinceVault:

"The Breakdown" is an unreleased song recorded in late 2012 or early 2013, most likely at Paisley Park Studios, Chanhassen, MN, USA. The studio version of the track was played by DJ Rashida prior to Prince's DJ set on 19 January, 2013, Dakota Jazz Club & Restaurant, Minneapolis, MN, USA (along with 2Y2D). The song has been described as containing a long, slow introduction with Prince singing in falsetto. It is unknown if this song is intended for any particular project, and nothing else is known about the track."

The track's lead vocals are performed by Hannah Ford, Donna Grantis and Ida Nielsen. The song's lyrics were written by Liv Warfield and the music was written by Prince, who also appears on background vocals. It is assumed that Prince also produced the track, but this has not been confirmed.

A beautiful acoustic song with Prince on guitar and vox only! In the same mood like tunes from "The Truth" (1997).

* ..."where is she talking bout needing one, and you have to feel that on her search, she is going to find one. We are told that Michael Bland plays drums on this track. There is a lot going on with this song, and Andy is able to keep the groove going. A lot is going on and it is working. It doesn't sound old, it stands out and it is fresh..."

- "Gone"

*..."which I am told was inspired by an old James Taylor and Carol King special. It just features Andy on vocals and guitar and it is stunning and as Andy put it, "Raw" and wanted to keep it that way even though her friend was really wanting to add strings to the song. It is quite good the way it is. I would have liked to have heard strings but it really doesn't need it..."

"Extraloveable was first released on the stand-alone digital single Extraloveable in 2011, to promote the Welcome 2 Canada Tour beginning two days later. While the recording was new, the track itself was 29 years old.
The original track was recorded on 3 April, 1982 at Sunset Sound, Hollywood, CA, USA (two days after re-recording Wouldn't You Love To Love Me? and two days before 3 x 2 = 6). The song was considered for inclusion on Vanity 6, but it is not known if a version with vocals by Vanity 6 was recorded. It is possible that the track was worked on further in 1983, as some of the lyrics could be interpreted as referring to Dez Dickerson's departure from the band and Wendy Melvoin's arrival.
In 1988, engineer Chuck Zwicky pulled the track out from the vault and remixed it, telling Prince it should be released. During Prince: A Celebration in June, 2000, computer screens at Paisley Park Studios offered names of a selection of tracks which users could vote on for inclusion on Crystal Ball Volume II, and while the track (now known as Xtralovable) was chosen by fans, the project was ultimately abandoned. It is not known whether this version was the same as an earlier version, or an alternate recording.
On 4 March, 2011, the website drfunkenberry.com reported that Prince was "about to unleash" a "25 minute live version" of Extraloveable (written as Extra Loveable), but nothing is currently known about this version (Extraloveable had at that point never been played live, so this may be a live in-studio recording), or how it was planned for release. The version eventually released was a studio version, likely recorded later in 2011, featuring a rap by Andy Allo (who first started performing with Prince in May, 2011); the track was likely recorded at Paisley Park Studios, although this is unconfirmed.
Prince stated in a radio interview with Toronto radio station 104.5 CHUM FM (also released as a podcast) that he had three versions of Extraloveable, and that they would all eventually be released; he also stated in the interview, however, that the released version was the 1982 recording with some minor tweaks, while it in fact appears to be an entirely new recording."

(tentative title)

When she comes / She never closes her eyes / Leaves no doubt
and each time I dig her eye we realize that she’s hypnotized
When she comes / There’s no place she’d rather be
Than therein to please / In my warm embrace
when she’s next to me she’s in ecstasy…. She cries….

Read the article from Dr. Funkenberry.com.

"Star (Sweet Dreams)", "Back in the Day", "Waiting" were titles seen as notes on the mixing desk of Studio B (Paisley Park).

"...and the artist played us the song "Stand up and b strong", an anthem devoted to reminding folks to tough it out during hard times, a perfect message for now." [Ebony July 2010, Page 90]

The song is a well known unreleased tune from 1986.

Don't miss our nu special page 4 the 3 4thcoming albums [HERE]

The track seems to be recorded around 2000 / 2001 - like many songs from Prince "The Chocolate Invasion" or "The Slaughterhouse" and is in sound and production not to far away from "Hpno paradise", "High" or "Silicon".

 

"Prince’s new album is finished and he’s just looking for a non-record label vessel in which to release it."
Hopefully those trax will be released 2009!
 

"...Right now, he's cranking newly crafted funk-pop-psychedelic wonders Boom, Forever and Dreamer, an ode to Martin Luther King Jr. inspired by discussions with Dick Gregory. He declines to play The Divine, a song so "mind-blowing" he doubts he'll ever release it. "The minute the harmonies hit, I put it away," he says.On a love song, his voice takes on yearning as he pines for the feel of a lover's lips and the move of her hips. "That's what happens with years of celibacy," says Prince, survivor of two broken marriages. "It all goes into the music." He pauses. "This time, it has to be the right person..."

"Here I come"

On December 27, 2008 "Here I come" was 'streamed' (as *.mov- later *.wmv-file with the audio plus some pix of Bria Valente) on the web site www.mplsound.com.

Artist web: www.briavalente.com

On 25 April 2008, "Prince and The Band" played live on the Tonight Show With Jay Leno to promote his 26 April performance at the Coachella Music and Arts Fesival in Indio, California. He also debuted a new song entitled "Turn me loose". This very fonky uptempo tune recalls in a typical Prince-James Brown-style tracks like "The Work" or "Musicology". The song is NOT identical to the Sly Stone song "Turn me loose" (from "A whole new thing", 1967)!

"You don't really know me you just think you do | it's against the law in 13 states what i'm gonna do to you
oh baby, you got to Turn Me Loose | if you really love me you got to give me what i need | or get your stuff and get cuz i'll just make you bleed, Turn Me Loose!
The board behind your head, about to split in two | whatever's holding up this bed'll be here when I'm through |
oh baby, you got to Turn Me Loose!
if you like these blankets you better throw them on the floor | the weather girl's a friend of mine, cuz when it rains it pours..."

On September 24, 2008 the L.A. based Radio Free 102.3 KJLH (www.kjlhradio.com) start playing 'exclusively' the STUDIO (!) version of "Turn me loose". This version - btw a great fonky tune and in style of "Get on the boat" (from Prince's "3121" album, 2006)  - is now circulating thru the internet.

According 2 Dr. Funkenberry's Celeb News (from 10/04/2008):

"Prince On The Move, Just Not Turning It Loose:
No wishing for Prince’s Turn Me Loose on I-Tunes…or on any format for that matter!
Turn Me Loose was just a leak. The DJ got the cut from Prince’s studio after begging for it after just one listen! He promised not to play it on air, then couldn’t resist.
The song is not included on any cd and was recorded for posterity’s sake and placed in the vault...."
 

On February 4, 2007 Prince played both songs live at his Super Bowl halftime show.

Two brand new Tamar / Prince collaboration to be released on the 4thcoming Tamar Davis album "Milk & honey" (earlier titled as "Beautiful, loved & blessed"):

"Holla & shout" - this mid-tempo song sounds very similar to the En Vogue track "Hold on" (from "Born to sing", 1990). Near the end you can hear some Prince vocals or more or less the spoken words "Holla, holla, holla....holla & shout, beat down 2 it, 2007, 2008, 2009, whatever - stay with it...".

"All I want is U" is probably the B-side of the single "Holla & shout", a piano ballad with some latin elements... recalls the mood of "Hallucination rain" and "The war"!

Both songs are written, composed and produced by Prince and Tamar.

This guitar-driven and catchy rock tune war premiered live at Prince's performance at NBC's Saturday Night Live show on February 4, 2006. "Fury" recalls some Jimi Hendrix classics like "Purple haze", "Hey Joe" or "All along the watchtower" combined with Prince's more rock-orientated stuff "Endorphinmachine", "Zannalee" or "The same december".
"Fury" is expected to be released on Prince's 4thcoming album "3121".

This brand new song - written by Tamar & Prince, all instruments by Prince - appeared on a promotional CD-single and 12inch vinyl (Radio promo) at the end of January 2006. "Beautiful, loved & blessed" will be included on both 4thcoming album releases by Prince and Tamar. A regular single release is to follow soon. The track will be available as download  from the MUSICOLOGY DOWNLOAD STORE on February 7, 2006!

Tamar full name is Ashley Ta'mar Davis, member (lead vocals) of the band Angaza.
You can view her [Biography].

Prince is involved in co-production and co-writing on the Tamar's debut CD (rumoured 2 be released in March 2006). Tamar will appear in the latest incarnation of Prince's live band, New Power Generation, and has additionally been tapped to open all of the dates on his 2006 world tour as a solo act.

"Beautiful, loved & blessed" is a soulful mid tempo song with a mid-90's-(NPS) production style, with some bits of "Come on" and not to far away from tunes like "Color" (by The Steeles), "Love sign" and the unreleased " A 1000 hugs and kisses" (both with Nona Gaye). Tamar and Prince are sharing the lead vocals.

Another brand new Prince song and cut from Prince's 4thcoming "3121" album! "Black sweat" - produced, arranged and composed by Prince - appeared on a promotional CD-single and 12inch vinyl (Radio promo) at the end of January 2006.  A regular single release is to follow soon (rumoured February 28, 2006). The video premiere take place on 02/02/2006.
The track will be available as download (audio and video!) from the MUSICOLOGY DOWNLOAD STORE on February 7, 2006!

"Black sweat" recalls some grooves and instrumentation from "Bob George" to "Kiss" over previously club releases from the last years - like "Nothside", "My medallion" or "Sex Me, Sex me not". A fonky tune, sparse arrangements - synthy sound plus Prince's falsetto!

This previously unreleased Prince song (and video) was offered on December 13, 2005 by the MUSICOLOGY STORE. "Te amo corazon" - spanish for 'I love you, [my] heart (or sweetheart)' - is the new Prince single, the CD-single will be released on December 20, 2005, and is taken from the 4thcoming album called "3121". 
"Te amo corazon" is another beautiful Prince-ballad (like Sweet baby or And god created woman), very relaxed and with some salsa influence.

The video was filmed in Marrakesh, Morocco and directed by SALMA HAYEK. The clip's co-star is actress MIA MAESTRO. [more]

Hornz: Maceo Parker, Candy Dulfer, Greg and Ray | Bass: Josh Dunham | Drums: Cora Coleman Dunham | Timbales, bongo and persussion: Ricky Salas | Congas, bongo and percussion: Herbert Urena | String arrangement: Clare Fischer | All other instruments and vox: Prince.

There's also a remix of "S.S.T" (6:57 min.) - called "Plant Life Remix" as promotional 'White Label' release (this means a DJ promo, usually a vinyl record in a white cover with just a sticker and no label print). This remix - still NOT officially released - was produced by Plant Life (www.plant-life.net) and has been aired by radio KCRW (see playlist screenshot!).

Announced by the club - "Time 2 Jam in Glam Slam! 2 Jams spinning all weekend." - this tune was 'released' along with the new song "Glass cutter (demo)". "San Jose Jam" is an fonky instrumental (based on "D.M.S.R.") and was recorded live at the San Jose soundcheck in June 2004.

This previously unreleased Prince song was offered on July 14, 2004 by the MUSICOLOGY STORE. "Silver tongue" was announced as "the virtual B-Side 2 "Call my name" [with] lyrics by Nikka Costa and Music by Prince". This "demo" is another 'piano + vocal' performance that would fit perfectly on the studio album "One Nite Alone" from 2002. "Silver tongue" recalls the motive of songs like "Condition of the heart" (from "Parade", 1985) and "U're gonna c me" or "One nite alone" (both from "One nite alone", 2002).

This previously unreleased Prince song was offered on July 4, 2004 [America's independence day!] by the MUSICOLOGY STORE. "The United States of Division" is a playfull and fonky joint - announced as virtual B-side to "Cinnamon girl" - this tune is a political statement and musically somewhere between "The Exodus has begun" (from The NPG's "Exodus", 1995) and "Judas smile" or "The Daisy chain".

Prince performed live a new song called "Black sweat" on June 25, 2004 at the Chicago concert. The earlier rumoured title "Workin'" - based on the chorus "I'm workin' - workin' up a black sweat..." is wrong. "Black sweat" was announced by PaisleyPark9 (N.E.W.S. forum of the NPGMC) on June 26, 2004:
Dateline - Chicago June 25: The new jam featured in the acoustic set is titled: "BLACK SWEAT".

I don't want to take my clothes off | But I do | I don't wanna turn nobody on
Unless it's you | I don't wanna dance too hard | But this is a groove
I'm hot, and I don't care who knows it |I got a job to do

CHORUS:

I'm workin | Workin up a black sweat | I'm workin | Workin up a black sweat
I'm workin | Workin up a .... uh uh!

I don't wanna shake my 'do loose | Unless I do | I dance & I make you lose your mind, baby
Make you act a fool | Hot comb & a bucket of grease | On a brother, on a brother right |
Oh somebody come fix my 'do We're gonna groove tonight

CHORUS | BRIDGE

I don't wanna break your pride | ....but I got to | You better take your woman & hide
'Cuz I'm about to | Show her what's really good | Break her off like you knew I would |
Got a new dance, y'all It's called: "Shake-A-????" | CHORUS

Prince's coverversion of "Red house" - retitled as "Purple house" - was finally released (May 4, 2004) on the Jimi Hendrix tribute album called "Power of Soul". The album features cover versions of Hendrix songs by various artists like Eric Clapton, Carlos Santana with Living Colour singer Corey Glover, Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble, Chaka Khan and Sting. You can order the CD, view the tracklist and hear short samples here: The official Jimi Hendrix Store (www.authentichendrix.com).

This previously unreleased song was offered on April 5, 2004 by the MUSICOLOGY STORE. "Magnificent" is a fonky mid-tempo song somewhere between "Jam of the year", "Pope" or "Wasted kisses". Declared as 'Prince - Reflection Single' (?) on the download page. However simply 'magnificent' - would have been a cool addition to the new album!

This previously unreleased song was included in the collection "The Chocolate Invasion" (available since March 29, 2004 from Prince's MUSICOLOGY STORE). "The Dance" is a mid-tempo tune in style of "Goodbye" or other typical Prince ballads from Emancipation (1996) like "Soul sanctuary", "One kiss at a time" or "The Sun, The Moon And Stars" (from Rave in2 the joy fantastic, 1999). It's likely that the song is from the mid-/late 90's or an outtake from the Emancipation sessions.

According to Sun-Sentinel, People in News from 03/03/2004, article "Prince is Prince again":
[...] He [Prince] says, "There's a new song on the new CD [Musicology] called "Call my name" and the song basically talks about the fact that no one had really said my name for a long time because I changed it." [...]

A short snippet of "Call my name" was played on 03/15/2004 during the Doug Banks Morning Show Radio where Prince also gave a phone interview / talked with Doug, CoCo, AJ and Free. "Call my name" is track No. 5 of the album "Musicology" and contains the following lyrix "Call my name - heard your voice this morning, calling out my name, it had been so long since I heard it, but it didn't really sound quite the same, but it let me know my name, had never really been spoken be4, be4 the day I carried U through the bridal path door, ever since the day i haven't wanted anyone but U, anybody who really knows me knows the truth - I just can't stop writing songs about you...".
This mid-tempo tune is very similar to "West" (from "News", 2003) with lyrics and recalls songs like "I hate U", "Man o' war", "Shhh" or "Beautiful strange".

"What do U want me 2 to?" is a previously unreleased Prince song, offered by The NPG Music Club (Glam Slam VIP room on 11/13/2003) for club members (quality: 96 KBS/44 KHZ). The mid-tempo tune in the mood of "The ballad of Dororthy Parker" or "Reflection" recalls the typical Linn Drum sound (used by Prince in the mid/late 80's), that can be found in material from the album "Sign o' the times" (1987) up to tracks like "Props N' pounds" and "(Jukebox with a) Heartbeat".

"Musicology" is a new and unreleased Prince song, described as funk-tune and not 2 far away from the NPG's New Power Soul material. A video was shot for his 'new single' on Saturday, October 11th 2003 in Los Angeles, CA. "Musicology" is also the name of a room inside the web of NPG Music Club feat. interactive music instruments/samples. The song is - more or less - build around these samples with Prince on lead vox, a fonky tune with the following lyrics (see end of transcription!).
A sneak preview - and lil' world premiere - of the video was shown on The Tavis Smiley Show (02/19/2004) where Prince was interviewed and performed an 'unplugged' version of "Reflection" feat. former Revolution member Wendy Melvoin!

Available since 11/04/2003 from the NPG Music Club (streaming MP3 files in 96 KBS/44 Khz - in the REFLECTION room!); extended versions of previously released songs from 1979, 1981 and 1983.
According 2 PaisleyPark9 (Site Admin of The NPG Music Club):
"On the xtended version of "Let's Work" Morris Day (of The Time) plays the drums on the second half of the tune (the 4 on the floor house section). He and PRINCE switched LIVE as the tape was rolling during the kickdrum breakdown."

During the 'World Tour 2003/2004' Prince premiered/played live some unreleased songs in October 2003 (Australia, Hong Kong and Hawaii). "Life o' the party" is more or less a remake of James Brown's "Hot Pants" (from 1971) with additional lyrics; "On the couch" - somtimes tentatively titled as "(Don't make me) Sleep on the couch" - and finally "Illusion, Coma, Pimp + Circumstance" made it finally on the 4thcoming CD "Musicology" (2004).

In the room VAULT III (of The NPG Music Club - May 26, 2003) there's a new Prince album called "News" listed!
The tracklist contains four songs (each 14:00 min.) and so far there's a sample of the song "East" (1:07 min./MP3/96 kBit/s) available. The other trax are "North", "West" and "South".
"East" is an instrumental (part) with a loose rhythm, heavy guitars - maybe a jam somewhere between "The ride" and "The war" - but the full song must be discovered! Maybe an experimental journey in the mood of "The Undertaker" jam?

All trax were played live during the 'One Nite Alone' Tour (October and November 2002) in Europe and Japan. The title "I love U Baby, like U have never known" is tentative! The lyrics to "U want me" were displayed as 'reading' in the VS-ROOM of The NPG Music Club. The song "Telemarketers Blues" was introduced during the Xenophobia Celebration. The live version of "U want me" was eventually released on the DVD "Prince LIVE at the Aladdin Las Vegas"!

This so far unreleased song was made available since the relaunch of The NPG Music Club (on April 18, 2003). The melody and arrangement is very like "Circle of Amour" (from "The Truth", 1997/98). On May 29, 2003 "Reflection" was offered in lo- and high quality on a special webpage (from the Reflection room). The best version (hi-quality) is in 256 kBit/s!
Prince performed an 'unplugged' version of "Reflection" feat. former Revolution member Wendy Melvoin at The Tavis Smiley Show on February 19, 2004.

This unreleased remix of the "So far so pleased" (feat. Gwen Stefani of No Doubt, original version released on Prince's album "Rave un2 the joy fantastic", 1999) was played by DJ Dustin at Paisley Park Studios at the Celebration 2002 week. This version could b the so called 'club/dance' remix indented 4 the still unreleased "The Hot X-perience".

"Twisted" is a song title from one of Prince's lyric books called 'Beautiful strange'. Therein U'll find the lyrics to the latest (sometimes unreleased or unfinished) tunes. Prince used this book (another lyric book is called 'One nite alone') during the recent tour. "Twisted" - a very jazzyswingin' tune and sometimes wrong titled (after one of the lyric line) "2 heads R better than 1" - is an old song written by Annie Ross and Wardell Grey (recorded by Annie Ross, Joni Mitchell, Bette Midler and others). It has nothing to do with the song "5 heads R better than 1" by The Hornheads (www.bone2bwildmusic.com)! The song was performed live/on soundcheck during the 'One night alone' tour.

This song - performed live during the 'One night alone' tour - was finally released (studio version) on the latest Prince album "One nite alone" (2002, club-only release). Please see also [COMING UP]

This song - performed live during the 'One night alone' tour - is a jazz-flavoured instrumental. "Xenophobia" sounds very similar to the song "Overnight, every night" (released by Eric Leeds on his '91 album "Times Squared" as CD bonus cut) - this track is originally a leftover from the 'Madhouse' sessions, written by Prince, Eric Leeds, Levi Seacer, Jr. and Sheila E.
U can hear a sample of the 'horn-driven' "Xenophobia" by entering The NPG Music Club (background music!). A live version (11:23) was included on "One Nite Alone Live EP". Rumoured to be the title track of the 4thcoming album with the same name - see also [COMING UP]

Just before our love got lost you said
"I am as constant as a northern star"
And I said, "Constant in the darkness
Where's that at?
If you want me I'll be in the bar"

On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada
And I sketched your face on it twice

Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you
I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
I'd still be on my feet

Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
I remember that time that you told me, you said
"Love is touching souls"
Surely you touched mine
"Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time

Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
And you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you
I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
I'd still be on my feet [2X]

I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
And she said
Color "Go to him, stay with him if you can
Oh but be prepared to bleed"
Oh but you are in my blood you're my holy wine
Oh and you taste so bitter but you taste so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
Still I'd be on my feet
I'd still be on my feet
