Found this website & wanted to share.



4. Goldiesparade.co.uk is a fan site run for non-commercial purposes but purely to share Prince’s legacy with the fan community and to the world at large for purposes including commentary, news reporting, research and critical assessment.

'In 1998 I became the hands behind this website, creating a fan space independently owned and creatively grown, it’s filled with 500+ pages dedicated to Prince’s music which forms the soundtrack to mine and countless of other readers worldwide. Quoted on MTV.com, GoldiesParade.co.uk brings fans up-to-date with straightforward digest of the real uncensored news on what they want to hear about the greatest musician of our generation. The site contains information on every tour Prince staged and every release officially issued.

Prince had a knack of hiring band members who were both delightful to meet and love what they do. This website is also homage also to their work: The Revolution, New Power Generation, 3RDEYEGIRL, Hornz, Diamond and Pearl, Twinz, even you Tony M, we fondly remember you all. Rest in peace Prince'

'Prince rocked my world then and continues to do so even now. After I got all Prince’s albums and quickly came to cherish and admire how each was and so different to one another: their diversity and the fact we got one album, sometimes two, per year. Then I discovered The Time and other related artists and my musical horizons expanded into corners I never imagined would. Finally, there was those countless concerts, where I made many of the happiest moments of my life. My first Prince show was at Earls Court in 1992 and my mind was blown. Seeing him play stadiums, arenas, theaters and clubs and getting to the front row of his aftershows, so close in fact that in Las Vegas 2006 he reached out and handed me his guitar pick.'

Following Prince’s sessions creating his twenty-eighth studio album Musicology, a demo version of a new track, titled Silver Tongue debuted shortly after its recording, released as a WMA download exclusive from NPG Music Club on 13 July 2004. The lyrics to the track are by Nikka Costa, fulfilling a long-standing request from Prince to write a poem – to which he added vocals and the music.

Costa first met Prince in 2001 when she was invited to perform at Paisley Park for Prince: A Celebration. Having sent Prince the lyrics in early 2004, he recorded two versions of the song, at Paisley Park Studios: the original demo as released on npgmusicclub.com in July 2004, followed with a full studio version. The studio version remained unreleased until 2024 to mark the 20th anniversary of the Musicology album

It’s one of my proudest moments to have written a song with him that he wanted to record. ~Nikka Costa
