#prince #kiss
1986. The year your mamajama graduated high school. Fun times dancing to this song! ❤
Prince was probably the most talented person of the 20th century. Seriously. Man could play 20 different instruments (his electric guitar skills were insane) and was a master of singing, songwriting, dancing, and lovemaking. He was the reincarnation of Porfirio Rubirosa. A latin playboy endowed with a ladykiller so extraordinary that they literally named the restaurant-style pepper mill after him. Unafraid of social mores, Prince pushed the limits and... Okay, that's enough. I'm an atheist male who refuses to pray to any deity but... I posthumously worship Prince to this day.
so true prince will always be the greatest solo artist and performer god rest his soul
I wish you could have met him in person and sat down with him during the latter part of his career before he died. My wife and I were fortunate to do so. He would have respected your beliefs. Whereas he accepted the impact of his celebrity status on many, he didn't vibe well with people idolizing him. While in our company he literally told someone who referred to him as a celebrity to rather "celebrate the craft, not me. But worship your Creator who blessed me these talents- Jehovah God"
NicknLex....just to get an idea of how huge Prince was. Upon his death France turned the Eiffle Tower purple in his honor, "Los Angeles City Hall is decorated with purple lights in memory of Prince. The music industry, nation and world took time to memorialize Prince in the best way through his signature color: purple."
They did all that for the legend prince and didn’t do anything for queen elizabeth lol
@@Musiover00 "Photos and videos taken across all seven continents show flags lowered to half-staff, landmarks lit up and mourners gathering to pay their respects to Queen Elizabeth II.
In Australia, an image of the Queen was projected onto the Sydney Opera House. Brazil’s Christ the Redeemer statue was lit up in the colors of the United Kingdom’s flag. Mourners gathered outside Buckingham Palace as a double rainbow formed overhead."
And that took place all over the planet for an entire year!
In Kenya we have Jacaranda trees that shed purple flowers we call it purple rain🔥🔥
The most complete artist ever.
Ooh if you start doing Prince I’m all over it. You MUST do When Doves Cry. And Sign O’ The Times. And Paisley Park. And Joy in Repetition. And Take Me With You. And DMSR. And Darling Nikki. And Lets Pretend We’re Married. And Let’s Work. And 1999. And Alphabet Street. And…oh shit this list could go on and on. Just enjoy the funky ride!
Damn just say all of them!!😊
Can't imagine not having heard "Kiss" or claiming you don't know any Prince songs. What's the world coming to?
They are lying
Over time I've developed huge respect for Prince. The comparison to Michael Jackson was probably natural in the 80s, but ultimately Prince is quite different. Stylistically more versatile, writer, multi-instrumentalist, producer and performer. An incredible talent who could take a minimalist idea and turn it into something very exciting.
And please, get your arm checked. One never knows about long-time issues.
I never understood the comparison. Prince was a complete package. Musician, singer etc. Michael, an entertainer. Good but no comparison at all.
His live performance at the Superbowl was something else. He was told by his team that there was a huge downpour of rain and lightening and they asked him about canceling the show he said you know what I want. I want it to rain harder. He performed it anyway. The dancers in high heels were sliding all over on the stage and all the electrical crew and others were worried about getting electricuted... Prince did not skip a beat... Definately one of the top Superbowl performances ever!
Exactly
And you should see the video just to see one of his best videos and his style. Note that although it shows Wendy playing the guitar, it is actually Prince himself playing that. He could never play that opening chord of Purple Rain the way she did on her Ric, and she could never play his rhythm guitar masterpieces live the way he had in the studio.
Note, by the way, this this is a masterclass in minimalist funk that does NOT have a bass guitar (or synth bass) in it. Few would even attempt that; fewer still could take it to #1.
And by the way, when this song was #1 in the summer of 86, the #2 song was Manic Monday by The Bangles, also written by Prince.
Yall definitely gotta do more Prince, he is unrivaled in terms of performances and musicality
For one of Prince’s most incredible vocal performances, I recommend “Damn U” 🤯❣️
And you didn't watch the video .... His charisma was phenomenal. Never equaled.
27...that's how many instruments Prince played.
😱!! That’s crazy! Thank you!
Prince played 27 instruments, wrote , produced , engineed, acted , directed and handled the majority of the business aspect of his business. He was a activists for other musicians as well as himself. Yes he danced and designed most of his cloths. Prince sang and played every instrument on his first two albums. Having known him personally he was beautiful inside and out . He has my love and respect as long as I draw breath. #peaceandstaywild
The Prince of cool. Love this funky tune🎶Thanks guys. So glad you are feeling better Nick and great to see you Lex!💞
You have to check out Prince at the super bowl half time show in the pouring rain the promoter was so worried Prince would have to cancel because all the electric instruments but Princes reply was CAN YOU MAKE RAIN HARDER that's how awesome he was
"Let's Go Crazy" full-length album version. Prince is a guitar God! ❤
"You don't have to watch 'Dynasty' to have an attitude." A very of the Era lyric! (if you don't know American TV in the '80s!) (It's so good to see you two together!)
Great reaction NicknLex. it’s a big rabbit hole. For his sheer musicality and swag I would check out the video performance from the all Star performance of While My Guitar Gently Weeps, at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Its jaw dropping guitar solo ann epic performance. Then there is a whole lot more an amazing catalog. ❤️❤️
As well Prince inspired Stevie Nicks to write Stand Back and then came and laid down the keyboard tracks for her on the song.
The video is so awesome as well. It’s Prince at his best, his funkiest and his sexiest. Such an Iconic R&B pop song. One of the best.
What?! Never heard Kiss?!! Oh my....don't get me started about the Prince era in my life. Love this cut. Delighted that you two have it in your memory bank now. I'll bet you never forget it.
Yes!!! Please go down the Prince rabbit hole! You won’t be disappointed! Just the top five you mentioned would be amazing! You guys are awesome! 😎
You forgot to forwarn them,
that many a soul has lowered themselves down into that rabbit hole, and then cut the line back to the top because they couldnt stop wondering throughout the purple labyrinth that is known as PRINCE.
It is a great place to be!!
Prince is my favorite artist ever! I loved your reaction and excitement for this song. He was so different on every album. React to the song I'm Yours from his 1978 debut album For You.
That song is absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! Funky, soulful, and rocking. Insane.
Prince is a rabbit hole , a gigantic Catalogue to be detected! As I said : Time, Purple Rain, 1999, when doves cry,
For all who may be interested - Nick reacted to Sign O’ the Times many months ago, in a marathon titled Funk and Soul. Check it out!
Definitely do more Prince!
Now, you have to go watch the video...or look for a live version -- even better! He was all about performance and fantastic guitar solos and dance and style and...He absolutely commanded the stage. His videos are actually restrained in comparison. "Baby, I'm a Star" live is a good one or look on UA-cam for his appearances at Montreux Jazz Festival. He always worked with the best musicians which meant they could follow his lead and throw down the jazzier improvisations.
Have a lot of respect for prince as an artist! He had so many ideas, styles and was a fantastic musician! I think it would be cool for you to do more reactions to him for sure!!
#nicknlexrequest Kiss is one of Prince's biggest funky hits, but the ultimate slice of Prince funk is Housequake. The guitar solo is by Wendy Melvoin. You should definitely check out Wendy & Lisa (Coleman)'s music (Honeymoon Express, Are You My Baby, Why Wait For Heaven, All Nite and Sweet Suite (Beginning At The End) are a good spread of their musical variety).
Prince is one of my very favorite musicians, entertainers, Love his music, he plays every instrument on his albums, his music is incredible
The 1985 concert in Syracuse had some epic performances like "let's go crazy" and "purple rain". Prince's Superbowl halftime show in 2007 is the greatest of all time. His covers of "creep", "motherless child" and "play that funky music white boy/Inglewood swinging" are must sees. That's just the beginning.
Prince was all over the place..! A Master of many genres! 😊
Yes a musical genius.
You guys should watch Under the Cherry Moon. Hilarious satirical film, and Prince’s debut as a director. 💜
You guys should check out the official videos when it comes to Prince. His performance skills are unmatched. Prince is like a one man army. He literally does everything. He taught himself to play over 20 instruments and can sing in 4 1/2 octaves. Check out Let's Go Crazy next (official video) Its a great funk/rock/pop/new wave jam!💜

You guys could spend a year easily reacting to Prince. Purple Rain, 1999, When Doves Cry, Little Red Corvette, please react to them all!! He was a true musical genius.
Nice reaction guys! Seeing that you guys like guitar songs (mainly Nick), here's a link to Prince playing one of the 27 instruments that he has mastered. Keep in mind, he DID NOT rehearse with band!!! There's a lot more back story, which I'm sure everyone will fill you in. Enjoy!! ua-cam.com/video/6SFNW5F8K9Y/v-deo.htmlsi=PROJpZh1QLAg5xsR
I always regarded Prince as the more intellectual elder brother of Michael Jackson, always a bit more humour, which is totally absent in Michael Jackson, more provocative, and groovy like hell! 😅
The video is fun to watch, he played all instruments except for the snippets where Wendy Melvoine's guitar work. It will take you years to watch his live shows. He is fantastic.
When you do Little Red Corvette by Prince make sure its the official music video as well so she can see his dance moves
You should absolutely do more Prince. I feel like there's just so many songs it's hard to even know where to start LOL but everything is good❤
I saw him live in 1987, Stockholm, and it’s to this day the second best concert I’ve been to. Out of this world. It was the ”Sign O’ The Times” Tour. I think it was his peak. That megashow, those musicians. I had my jaw dropped to the floor through the whole thing while dancing in my chair.
Omg, you have to see the video for this song; it is amazing.
You missed out bc there's an extended version where he THROWS DOWN LIKE NOBODY'S BUSINESS!!!
To me Prince and Stevie Wonder are the most prolific artists ever. Nobody can do what they do.
Wow, I've written this b4. I whole-heartedly agree.
Motherless Child live!
Minneapolis, MN. Prince Rogers Nelson- my home state. He has so many hits; Purple Rain, 1999, Little Red Corvette, Nothing Compares to You, etc.,
If you check out Purple Rain don’t do the music video. It doesn’t do the song justice and doesn’t make sense if you haven’t watched the movie. These two live performances are the best imo. ua-cam.com/video/bm03wqLY3Nc/v-deo.html Purple Rain live in Syracuse 1985 long version of the song.
m.ua-cam.com/video/VbEv8C9Cff0/v-deo.html Purple Rain 1985 American Music Awards
Suggestion : Scandalous, official video, to see his moves. This is perfection in every aspect.
So many songs.
I would have to say the enormous amount of songs out there thus far that you can stream and and that were on his albums,
that output is probably less than a 10th of what this man wrote and recorded.
And I am NOT kiddin.
Google it for yourself- several sources reveal that in his vault are stored about 8000 hidden treasures from him socked away in there just waiting to be handed to the public.
Back in the late 1970's
Warner Bros studio had no idea that they were about to unleash a Frankenstein's Monster onto the world.
A little Monster named
PRINCE
Rabbit Hole Opened!! Enjoy the Funk...
The big Prince - MJ rivalry was fueled by the press in the 80s. They both respected each other. Prince was a musician as well as an entertainer. Many of his albums were all him, instruments, vocals and production.
Shout out to Soda!!! And glad you had so much fun with this Prince classic!
YESSSS to more Prince. 😉
The funniest thing was that after this video shoot, he went back to his crib to shoot some hoops with his crew
You really don't remember Prince songs? How fluently time is, another great Prince song! Check Purple Rain, and his While my guitar gently weeps guitar solo, please! 🙏
you did this on Patreon.. glad it made it out here
I've heard this song many many times, but this must be the first time with earphones. Never realized he was making kissing sounds!
Thank you.Really.Thank you.
Sign o the Times, Raspberry Parade, Sometimes it snows in April , Erotic City, Time, the list of great songs, innovative deep funk sounds and also great ballads is endless....
@@kbrewski1 Ja meinetwegen, falsch gehört 😅
This is a great reaction love when musician lovers react. I would suggest if you do decide to react to Prince in just audio & not video, i highly recommend listening to him with his lyrics. He was a master lyrcist as well.
One thing Prince mastered, was silence. Unlike the "wall of sound" big from Motown, Prince would put pops of silence, which keep you glued to the song. Way back in the days of iMacs, I used the first guitar riff and "kiss!" or "oooh" whatever he says at the very beginning, as my computer "you did something wrong" sound. Wish I could still do that.
Prince and MJ didn’t have an actual rivalry. Janet’s Jackson’s producers were Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis, Prince’s lifelong friends and members of the band “The Time” that often toured with Prince.
Prince considered it a stab in the back that Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis left him. He could be quite petty about things.
@@you2449 He fired them because they did it behind his back. The story is that he was also proud of them and made it known, then the group reformed and the friendship never suffered, according to Jerome.🤷🏾♂️
What Michael and Prince rivalry? I don't recall this and I lived through it😂 they're both very different styles and we loved them both.
I had just become a daddy for the first time. Must play this to my grandchildren now.
This is off the movie motion picture soundtrack Parade -Under the Cherry Moon which has some other great songs, Mountains & Need Another Lover Like Hole in Head...also not a bad movie, hes actually not a bad actor as well
hey guys, check out Sheila E's song "Love Bizaar" Prince wrote the song for her and sings backup, Nick and Lex, you will love it.
He has many complex songs, but are more obscure like Crystal Ball and the program song, 3 Chains Of Gold.
You should definitely listen to The Most Beautiful Girl In The World by Prince too, this song will blow ur minds!!!! ( I genuinely loved the reaction)
I think James Brown could have done this song. Shades of “Papa’s Got A Brand New Bag”.
He wrote the song but threw it out, another band on his label remixed the song and covered it. Prince heard the new song and wanted it back promised to credit them but off course Prince NEVER credited them, instead claimed the new version as his. Dirty!!!
I fell on an icy parking lot last Sunday... I’m fine but sore. Thankful at 55 I didn’t break a hip! I can relate to your fall scare! Bruised but still moving on! 😊
You really need to watch the Prince videos. His sex appeal rivals none.
Maybe my favorite song from him. So danceable! (Tom Jones recorded this song, too, and it is kinda awesome.)
Michael Jackson’s brother, Jermaine, has a son named Jermajesty, so I doubt Michael’s son was named Prince Michael Jackson in tribute to Prince. Michael even had a second son named Prince Michael II, whom he called “Blanket” for god only knows what reason (he has since changed his name to Bigi). So I’m guessing Michael’s sons’ names are based on his own personal eccentricity and ego and nothing more. His daughter, Paris, got the most normal name out of all of his kids.
check out his movie Purple Rain, you guys will be blown away.
Cool reaction. He got the basic guitar from a 1930 s blues record. He gave the song to s band mate to start a new band, they finished the song, prince told them to go get something to eat and put the finishing touches on it. In. Three hours he redid the whole song and said 'im keeping this for myself" u will enjoy the music video. You will dig the extended version of kids, it turns into two different songs. This is it
ua-cam.com/video/84KAVLm55ns/v-deo.htmlsi=IIhuudlFDbMpiAFD
Definitely watch the purple rain movie, it LL put the songs in better context
I noticed Nick's smile when he said he had to dress you though 🤣
MJ named his son Prince after his grandfather, whose name was Prince also.
Tom Jones covered this song unbelievably when he was in his 70s fire
while this would not be my choice for an introduction to prince, it does represent a timeframe of a master. having said that, i really don't know what i would choose for you guys to first hear... the cliche is anything from purple rain. i think i would start with dirty mind. regardless, be diverse in your choices, his music is every music.
This song was originally suppose to go to Mazarati, one of his other bands, but he changed his mind, took the bass line out of it and put it on his soundtrack for Under the Cherry Moon. (Parade)
The entire Purple Rain album is a must react to, as well as the 1999 album.
And as good as the videos on some of those songs are, unfortunately they are heavily edited, so the album versions of the songs are the must listen to versions👍🏼
Great reaction! You guys should react to every song you mentioned on that list. That's a good starting point.
You can’t do this song without watching the video because he is a true performer and another reactor said it great that prince can steal your girl away, and he can also steal your guy. He is just sexuality personified.
Lex I hope your left arm heals fast and you get all your range of motion back!
Damn, i wish they would've watched the music video
Check out Erotic City by Prince as well.
I miss him so much I can’t even listen to him anymore. And that was after 35 years of Chasing the man. His death broke me so hard that now I have to listen to heavy-metal to heal…and now I’m obsessed with love craft and Metallica.
Mazarati 100 MPH ( ua-cam.com/video/0P5wJBoQL4w/v-deo.htmlsi=r88UwhDXYuIwGFAb
Love Prince ❤ Tom Jones did a good and popular cover of Kiss.
The rivalry was Prince vs Rick James.
Now go back and hear the 12 inch. Sick!!!
You should listen to 1999 you'll love to Jam this one out
The backing vocals are him!
Did you know that there is no reverb at all on this record?
Prince and MJ had great respect for each other
