Physical vocal recovery and emotoonal over ehela, from thst out of this world vocal work. Not even today we have a prince walking around. What time to be alive while He was alive what an example He left us on this earth.
Prince's European fans were the most dedicated, especially the ones from Belgium and Holland. He toured there almost every year in the 80's and 90's. I got hooked on him after seeing his 1986 Parade concert. It blew my mind. I saw him perform live 57 times, some of which very rare and memorable aftershows. Because he often treated his fans to impromptu intimate live jams in small clubs. I remember one in Brussels where I was so close my nose almost touched his knee ! He was by far the most talented live performer ever, and his fans adored the ground he walked on. I still miss him every day 😢 But it's nice seeing people discover his work and appreciate his enormous talent.
Bonnie Boyer, rest her soul, was right in the pocket of gospel rooted singers Prince loved. I was lucky enough to see her with him on the Lovesexy tour which was to put it lightly the most unforgettable concert experience of my life. He lost a lot of money due to the stage set up but it was phenomenal and did what it set out to do - make us remember it forever.
I was lucky enough to see him live over 20 times:) That includes being invited to several after-shows and after parties where he also performed. After his concerts he would frequently have an after-show or an after party. He usually started playing at 1 or 2am and played until dawn. It was epic 😎 He also pulled me onstage to dance once 🎉
❤ your reactions. I've seen Prince live and later worked with him at his request at Paisley Park. The artist wanted me in one of his videos. Off stage Prince is just as cool , kind and funny. He will be 4ever in my life. #peaceandstaywild
Wooaw I LOVE THIS!! Can you altso react to Partyman, Gett Off or Money dont matter tonigt…….mmm love PRINCE….I wich all thing with him 🤭💋💋💋 love ur react……
My favorite version of this song! Yes, every concert was different. Prince always wanted to hear the attendees sing along with him, and he had us trained to stop, when he said "On the One!".
The laughing background singer is drummer Sheila E., the woman with the great voice is the late Boni Boyer, and the doctor is Matt "Doctor" Fink, Prince's keyboardist from his band "The Revolution". - Thanks for your reaction, please do more Prince!! 💜
Definitely a drum loop. Sheila E., one of the back up singers was the drummer. And I remember Bobby Z. (drummer from the Revolution) saying that during Purple Rain tour he had to use a drum sequencer on When Doves Cry (I think) track because Prince was really the only one who could sustain the complex rhythm playing live.
This is from the concert movie Sign 'O the Times. They used concert footage from the Netherlands and a concert at Paisley Park (his studio/home) for the film. Of course he had a standard set list and it was definitely rehearsed but he also loved to jam!
One of his band members said they had to learn several different versions of the songs because he was always changing it up. I saw Prince twice, 2004 and 2011. Best concerts I’ve ever been to.
Boiling it down to the simplest element of a Prince concert for an audience member: just pure fun. You’d go, not knowing what you’d see but assured you would have a great time
The thing with Prince is that he appreciated his Audience. They paid hard earned money to see a show and he knew that and so always kept his ticket prices affordable.
There’ll never be another like him! I saw him over 20 times with afterparty/concert in the night and every time it blows my mind! I think it felt like an overdose (without any health-problems😉) The music,the funk,his voice,his instrument-playing,his style,the man(no, I’m not gay) it completely overwhelmed me everytime and surly the most others in the hall. The Atmosphere when he comes up on stage..i miss that so much like nothing else in the world. i‘m so thankful 2 live in his area and be a little little part of it❤️ Peace,Love and b wild!
Dr Fink with the stethoscope, holdover from The Revolution, and its a drum track because the drummer is Sheila E on this tour and she is singing background out front beside Bonny Boyer.
You got to this one quicker than I thought you would. Thanks so much!!! I love that you pointed out his vocals. You’re right, they are often overlooked. My theory is that he was so good at so many things that it caused people to miss the greatness of each part. I mean, Rolling Stone initially left him off their greatest guitarists list, he’s not in the Song Writers HOF, etc. One of my favorite things about this song is that the backing vocals actually come before his lead vocals. When the SOTT album came out, I would play this song over and over and sing the different parts each time. That’s the great Boni Boyer on vocals there. I believe the drums were a loop for this song. Sheila E., Prince’s drummer on this tour was singing backup (she was the one who started laughing) on this song. Sheila is an amazing percussionist and drummer. I’ll have to request something with her for you to check her out. Really enjoyed your insight on this one and am looking forward to the next 💜💜💜
Thanks so much Jenn! This was definitely 🔥 and I loved his vocal performance on this tune! Prince is definitely bringing it on so many musical levels! Can’t wait to hear more! Have a great one! 😄
Saw him live several times. UNREAL. Like no other and NEVER the same. Each time was a life altering experience. There will never be another. You capture the essence of his performances well with your reactions and analysis. Keep up the good work bro.
Always good to get a muscian perspective....Prince was an absolute professional his work ethic was lengendary,and he rehearsed for hours i saw him live a few times just like you mentioned in this video it was an experience.
Take a look, or think about maybe doing “Prince plays Santana medley”, I think you’ll like it! Love your channel. Your energy and enthusiasm towards the reactions is great to watch!!
Saw him at a fairly small venue, the Masonic Temple in Detroit, for a 'Hit-and-Run" show during the Parade era (the show was only announced on a local R&B radio station and the tickets sold out in 45 minutes); Wendy had us sing "Happy Birthday" to Prince midway during the show 🎂🎶💜
I wonder how many people knew the pain he and his wife suffered through while he kept everyone else happy. I know some of that had to come out in his music.
What you're witnessing is Prince's informal introduction of his new backing band, The New Power Generation (NPG). Prior to this, the Revolution was his backing band. Gone are Lisa and Wendy Melvoin, who had provided vocals, guitar, and keyboards in the Revolution with Bonnie Boyer (vocals/ keyboards), Sheila E. (drummer/ vocals) and Cat Glover (dancer/ bkg vocals). Prince, too, was a drummer and a master of drum programming, so what we're hearing on this track is his programmed drum track. "Forever in My Life" was near the end of the night's performance so his minimalist approach to this song was to bring down the heavy production of the night's set and take it to church! I was fortunate to see Prince live on 4 different tours and he always brought something new to each time he took the stage. Check out from SOTT film "(It's Gonna Be) A Beautiful Night". You'll get to see Prince and Sheila E switch out drumming duties. Sheila E takes the mic for a mid song rap and Prince takes over the drums! "Housequake" is another fun song from the SOTT album/ movie.
you should react to It's Gonna Be a Beautiful Night from the same movie. If you want to see high energy. I was lucky to see Prince 5 times. 1992, 1998, 2 x in 2004 and 2014
Thanks for your great videos! You should check out „All the critics/ housquake“ and „Empty Room“ from the Montreux Shows 2009!!! The performances are stunning!!! PRINCE, G.O.A.T.
I went to this specific concert in the Galgewaard, Utrecht, I knew the set list and was one of the first to start with the "Oh hey oh" chant jumping whole concert and a famous Dutch female singer who was standing behind us from the Dolly Dots, her name is Angela Groothuizen, was grabbing every thing that fell out my pocket and handed it back to me. Often I Imagine you could hear me starting the clip with my chant! Great experience! :)
That's Dr. [Matt] Fink - he was one of the keyboardists in The Revolution who stayed when Prince disbanded the group. also, when you used the word "breathe" in relation to the music, it remined me of something he used to say a lot about funk misic being all about "spsce" I think was the word.
lol, considering all the typo’s, I have to thank you for the positive response 🤣🤣🤣 (I do hope you got “space” as the word Prince related so closely with funk 😳😳😁😁 - thanks …
Drums is probably Sheila E. I saw Prince with the "sign of the times" tour in Munich, think this is from the concert/movie of the same tour. The tickets said "wear something peach or black" :) Overall, probably the best concert i've seen in my life!
@setonhillstudios it was Epic....mind you I'm old enough to have been to Queen, Rolling Stones, Kiss, AC/DC, Blondie, Bon Jovi, Guns n roses, Metallica, Aerosmith, Nirvana and many more. Pretty much all of them were Epic. There is one band I really want to see and that's Sabaton, must find a time and date for that 😊
The Doctor Matt Fink always dressed as a doctor. Princes blood type is C Sharp. This is cram a concert film. It was filmed live in Paris. He added overdubs in the studio so the audio is not 100% live
One correction: Dr. Fink started out dressed up as a Prisoner (the old black/white ) prison uniform, But, Prince later wanted the group to dress up in their costumes. As a matter of fact, David Z always dressed up as a Carbon copy of Prince himself. ❤. But, I didn't know the full story behind Him choosing the Doctor outfit. **I have Prince's Autobiography Book.... Self-entitled.
U REALLY won't appreciate this performance until or unless u hear the recorded version from,"Sign of the Times" album..Then u will love this version even more. Live performances by Prince always had 1 motto with them as once told by Jimmy Jam during a tv interview back in the day when he says that The Time were rehearsing for the tour with Prince and they were playing the song as it was recorded and he stopped them mid-song and told them,STOP! U HAVE TO DO BETTER THAN THE RECORD! And they changed the groove right there..Also he said it was not out of the norm for Prince to take your instrument and show u how he wanted songs to be played,like Jimmy Jam and his bass..He also said that it was honor and respect to have someone to do that and they could play your instrument even better than you can lol...
The man with the stethoscope is Dr. Fink. The rest of the Revolution had been let go by this time. This is a transitory Prince band between The Revolution and the New Power Generation which would start to coalesce as they discovered who was going to be staying. The saxophonist is also the same as before: Eric Leeds. Later on, by about the time of Batman, he was using Candy Dulfer on sax, but not yet. This album dropped in '87 and is one of his most loved, but genre-wise, it was a bit all over the place. It was the first OFFICIAL Prince album to have so many songs that it took 2 compact discs to put it on. This timeframe was about when the CD was still new, but most people were still buying cassette-tapes so of course, you know they had the cassettes and the vinyl records too, which would have also been more than one of. Dr. Fink was with Prince the longest of anyone other than I think Kirk Johnson, who was a background dancer and bodyguard/confidante of Prince, though some blame him for Prince's death, not directly, but indirectly.
Boni Boyer is the female vocalist. She’s from the Bay Area. She was in sheila e’s band mid 86-early 87 when he absorbed her into his post Revolution band. She was around til 1989. When he got rid of that band. Sadly she died in 1996 from a brain aneurism.
@@setonhillstudios no worries! Yeah I think she’s the blueprint for later singers such as Rosie Gaines, Shelby J, Liv Warfield etc. He loved Chaka khan, mavis staples & Aretha Franklin as a kid so it makes sense.
Interestingly I was wondering if you were gonna pick up on the drum performance technique. You have a keen sense of detail. So the slim chick in the middle with the tight dress and the big hair who was laughing at his adlibs is legendary drummer and vocalist Sheila E. who was Prince’s protégés and drummer during this period. What they did for this particular song in the show was program one consistent beat into a drum machine using real drums so Sheila wouldn’t be stuck behind a set of drums just so he could have a moment when all his band members were on the main stage with him for this one. The rest of the show, the drumming is live.
Awesome reaction💥 But this videos is a must to react to of 💜 PRINCE 💜 🎯2007 SUPER BOWL FULL LIVE PERFORMANCE 🎯 IT'S EPIC IT 🎯🔥 🤟🏼💪🏼 💜IT'S A MUST THANK ME LATER LOL 💜 ✌🏼Not only could he sing he was a badass guitar player no doubt 🔥
@@setonhillstudios a legend is an UNDERSTAMENT Please Stop With the led zeps and featles They could never compete because Prince was very competitive...they could never funk with us because THEY NOT LIKE U$
Can you do new millennium cyanide Christ by meshuggah next, do the music video it’s 🔥 everyone in the video is Air everything (guitar drums headbanging all while wearing shades ofc) either the exception of Jens using what looks like a pen as a mic, trust me you’ll love it
It really got spiritual with "The Cross" ( one of my favorites) The emotion in this MAY have been due to proposing to Sheila E said during this song. And that's Katt Glover next to her (Danny Glovers niece)

Always luved Prince's acoustic guitar tone. Always heard an homage to John Mellencamp's acoustic guitar sound here.
If he busted into Jack & Diane it'd make total sense tone-wise
Was fortunate to see him twice. Was unfortunate to only see him twice.
I guess 2 times are better than none! Such a legend! 💜
My favorite version of this song! Yes, every concert was different. Prince always wanted to hear the attendees sing along with him, and he had us trained to stop, when he said "On the One!".
Willing And Able is another great video from Prince

Seen him around 30 times between 86 and 2014. His after shows are legendary.
Wow! That’s so awesome that you got to see him so many times! Love it!
Sheila E was far more than just a background singer‼️💜 The “sign of the times” concert movie was superb. And yes, those are programmed drums.
Saw him live on the Purple Rain and Lovesexy tours and yes, they were experiences like none other. He's the GOAT of all Goats 4ever.

JFK jr and his wife used this song as their wedding dance. It has always been a fav of mine.

Saw him and the Revolution in Stockholm Sweden 1986. Great concert but I am sad I didn't get to see him live later on.
That’s so cool you got to see him live though! I bet it was EPIC! 💜
@setonhillstudios it was Epic....mind you I'm old enough to have been to Queen, Rolling Stones, Kiss, AC/DC, Blondie, Bon Jovi, Guns n roses, Metallica, Aerosmith, Nirvana and many more. Pretty much all of them were Epic.
There is one band I really want to see and that's Sabaton, must find a time and date for that 😊
It’s a constant debate which tour was the best ever by any artist 86, 87 or 88
There's a great band out of Italy called Wind Rose the song is called "Diggy Diggy Hole" and it has an epic drum break in it
