Prince's pop life, song by song, in chronological order.
With “Doves” now on deck for his next single, Prince was in the market for a suitably killer B-side–a role “17 Days” would fill with aplomb.
Prince dives into “Turn It Up” with impressive sincerity and single-minded intensity, as if “horny radio” were the role he’d always dreamed of playing.
“Wild and Loose” is centered around one of the most prevalent scenarios in the life of a touring musician: the backstage (and back-of-bus) dalliances between the band and their young, female admirers.
