Donna/Nadara/Baby, Baby, Baby/Down a Long Lonely Road/Miss You: Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast



On episode 143 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics PodcastI’m talking about five songs pulled from Prince’s vault recorded in late 1978 or early 1979 at his France Avenue home in Edina, MN. “Donna” and “Nadara” (or Nadera or Nadeara) are sensitive ballads written about mysterious (to us at least) women. “Baby, Baby, Baby” and “Down a Long Lonely Road” are sketches of songs without much substance. “Miss You” is a short but sweet melancholy ballad of lament. Some of these songs are more fully fleshed out than others, but all are worth a listen or two.

Neurotic Lover’s Bedroom: Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast



Prince lets his freak flag fly on “Neurotic Lover’s Bedroom,” the song he recorded after receiving a drum machine as a gift from his new manager. On episode 141 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics PodcastI’ll be diving into the depravity alone, no spotter on standby, to help me navigate the kinky side of Prince’s teenage mind. Let’s rock!

Make It Through the Storm/We Can Work It Out: Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast



After the New York City setback in 1976, Prince hired a manager and returned to the studio. Two songs recorded in 1977 that were never officially released by him, “Make It Through the Storm” and “We Can Work It Out,” are the focus of episode 140 of the Press Rewind – Prince Lyrics Podcast. With lyrics by Chris Moon, “Make It Through the Storm” doesn’t get the complete breakdown treatment, but the story behind the Prince-penned “We Can Work It Out” makes for an amusing narrative for his earliest record label interactions.
