Prince
Uptown
There are many songs that remind me of certain people for individual reasons, however I guess this song reminds me of a 'collective of people' rather than some 'one' person.
I had the pleasure of seeing Mr Nelson during his epic residency at the London O2 Arena a few years back with a large and motley bunch of Welsh gits, as part of an extended weekend amidst a friend's birthday bash and other miscellaneous tomfoolery.
He didn't actually play this, but when I think of Prince it's either this or Controversy, which he DID play. HOWEVER, when I saw Mr Oizo, he didn't play Controversy sandwiched between Flat Beat and JT's Sexy Back, did he?
No, he played Uptown. Why? Because it's killer-sick that's why.
I'm riffing now, so I'll get back to the point;
Great weekend.
Great people.
Great song.
Simples.
