Prince Will Check You Out At His Online Checkout
Prince has launched LotusFlow3r.com, an “entirely new galaxy” that, it looks like, will be the launching pad for all things Purple in 2009 (the Flash animation promises new tracks by Prince “and special guests” as well as video and an online store; there’s also a screen grab from Purple Rain in the page). Three songs—his dreamy reworking of “Crimson and Clover,” the confident strut “There Will Never B Another 1 Like Me,” and the quietly stormy “Here Eye Come,” which I’m pretty sure features Bria Valente—are streaming from the site as well, and man I could listen to that guitar on “Crimson” all day.
