Prince: Girl of my Dreams, Can’t Stop This Feeling I Got, and We Can Funk 1986 session

- Originally “girl of my dreams”, “can’t stop this feeling I got” and “we can funk” was a medley done by him and the revolution during the dream factory sessions. A few years later, both “can’t stop this feeling I got” and “we can funk” were re recorded and released on his most obscure album “grafiti bridge”. girl of my dreams has yet to be released but I doubt it wouldn’t be on a grafiti bridge deluxe with can’t stop and we can funk included. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to find the original medley anywhere on the internet so I found all three songs on RUclips and put them all together to get an idea on how it would’ve sounded like. Please enjoy because Ik this isn’t gonna be here forever and like and subscribe for more content.

All songs were eventually reworked or updated and released. CANT STOP THIS FEELING I GOT and WE CAN FUNK are on the "Graffiti Bridge" sdtk. GIRL OF MY DREAMS was recorded by T.C. Ellis and released on his "True Confessions" album.
Thank you and I’ll make sure Ill update that
I remember having this on bootleg 89 right before Batman came out
yep we can funk was reworked w George Clinton for Graffiti
Every song that was reworked became horrible. These are the best versions. No contest.
@@LemonsAndSalt69 Agreed! Hopefully these versions will be on a Parade super deluxe edition some day..........
Michael Jackson was number one to me until Prince showed up. Prince inspired me to play guitar, bass,piano and drums. These people have left us a lot great music. Why can't people just let them rest in peace? That man said that he didn't want anyone touching his music. Why can't the elites, Warner bros or whoever just leave this man alone. He don't need people out here putting out his music. NO ONE CAN DO IT LIKE THE MAN HIMSELF. Let this man rest in peace.
"ALL HAIL The NEW KING in town!!!" 😅🎵🎼🎶
In an interview Prince was asked how much music he had in his vault that was recorded finished. Prince said it was too many to remember. He said I think its in the hundreds. The interviewer said are you ever going to release any of them. Prince response was I probably won't but someone will. So Prince knew this would happen.

Paul mccartney is my favorite musician....I love michael....I will still say prince is the most talented artist ever. he was a unicorn...James brown, Jim hendrix, and Quincy Jones combined...and then some.....he was a self contained artist that was better at every aspect of song from its infancy to the point it gets performed live in concert...the songwriting, instrumentation, the vocals, the production, choreography....its just not fair to other artists how insanely talented he was.
My favorite version of We Can F**k will always be the ‘83 version 😊
Miko was a great guitar player ❤
This we can funk version is slamming
I had this recording on a bootleg CD I bought in the early 90's while I was in college. Some great songs from this period!
I remember the first time hearing these when I bought the bootleg in the 80s
Me too!
Me 2
I had the purple jewel box Lp of bootlegs from 79-89. I bought back in 1990. Can’t stop is not the original track he had Claire Fischer put strings on, I have the bare track without reverb. Also the We Can Funk I have the reversed echo with reverb on the vocals the volume is increased. You can hear Susannah singing with him clearly. I was 19 when I first heard this and it turned me on, I went downtown playing this in my Walkman. I was gonna have lunch and ended up in lady’s house in her bed. Wow...what happened I just played Prince and I’m in bed with some stranger.
Ig the power of prince can only lead you down that road 😂
@@niteline8429 I do feel guilty because my mom was like “how was lunch” and I wasn’t really interested in telling her at all. I came back in time for dinner she said I was gone for a long time, I played dumb like “oh I didn’t notice”.
I have the same ones!
He did RIGHT by not releasing these projects in 86' and waiting till they fitted on Graffiti Bridge and whether the industry liked it or not was solely on them....
Disagree 🤷🏻
Just blows my mind how these classic grooves, especially this version of "We Can Funk" have so many epic versions just chilling some where. The George Clinton/Prince version of We Can Funk is dope. George Clinton's version is dope. Prince's version is fire!
1986 was a Wonderful time of purple music. Prince & the Revolution were going places musically that could no have been replicated. I thought these were a part of another 'musical' When The Dawn of the Morning Comes?
Dumping the revolution opened major creative doors…..Wendy and Lisa were great for what they did but they were very limiting. They could not go beyond rock,pop, classical…
I remember picking up the 3 x vinyl Royal Jewels bootleg box set from a record fair in early 1990 and I obsessed over these 3 songs in particular for quite some time. It just demonstrated Prince's amazing ability and musical range. Funky as f*ck too.
I was 20 and had been in to Prince for 5 years at that point and as someone else mentioned - what a way to discover your musical formative years by being around such a rich and prolific spell of Prince's, so very lucky.
I'm really hoping for a Parade Super Deluxe Edition that hopefully will include this session on it. What a genius and so sadly sadly missed!! x
Heard these songs almost 10 years ago on the unreleased Chocolate Box album
She want a BOX of chocolate every day
prince the man
The way I’m used to hearing these songs!!!
Me too!
This really should have been a suite of songs on an album. Slammin’!
love the slower paced version of "We Can Fu--"
I’m so lucky to have been 16 in 1986. What other generation was indoctrinated as well musically as I was? Goddamn!
i was 17 in 86 til Nov 86 when i turned 18. 70s kid, 80s teenager - what a great time to be young
Same here I was 15 in 86
I can testify, I was 15. My mom liked his music too. I had my own money and could buy my own cassettes.🤩
Same here.@@shanellmeredith8035
The wonderful, fuzzy sounding cassette copy I had played a little faster than this but it's still the same memory and good feeling listening to it...especially when he calls out Niko for his solo.
Classic 💯 ❤️🔥
Although the Estate has given us a LOT of great stuff now, the problem their 'archivists' have is that they see a song called "Can't Stop This Feeling I Got" and just think "oh that's been released already - next" 🤦🏻♂Same with We Can Funk. There are actually 5 to 6 versions of that song!! Personally I like this one the best - it is POUNDING!!! For me it really personifies the title. The released rework sounds watered down.
Definitive versions of these tracks in best quality I've ever heard - had the hissy 5th generation tape bootlegs in the 1980s. Prince at his absolute best. Paisley Park estate should release this properly mastered etc.
He's a good lad.
Fascinatingly, I remember hearing this sequence of songs on cassette in the eighties. Unsurprisingly I liked it and listened often.
This upload is the best quality I've heard this so far. Nice.
These songs were on my cassette bootleg of The Black Album, along with “Joy In Repitition”.
@@thesuperblackworldof... - Good. I had that one too.
:-)
@@thesuperblackworldof... weren’t all of these on Chocolate Box
@@neonsparky looks like…this was from a live studio session recorded with The Revolution. The songs were recorded back to back in one shot.
Had the outtakes of this in the early 90s.
always surprised when i hear something for the first time after loving me some P music since '79! never heard girl of my dreams until 2021 - wowwwww and thank you!!! keep the purple flame burning.
Love this picture of prince
I DO love this version of "We Can Funk." I had this on bootleg cassette and lived with it at the time. When Graffiti Bridge came out I was so excited to have a digital version of it. Needless to say, I was seriously with the GB version....
Great song sweetie pie Prince LUV it its cheekiee 💜💜⭐⭐⭐
Love. This picture of prince
Yeah Prince ya the guy of dreams I mean it cause I have dreamt about ya hahah💜💜💜💋💋💋💋💋 great songs I can't stop this feel I got too Prince hahahah 💜⭐💋
JESUS CHRIST IS COMING SOON! REPENT FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS AT HAND! (MATTHEW 3:2) REPENT AND TURN FROM YOUR SINS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!!!!!!!
Save the prayers for people who need it!!
This is my favorite version of We can Funk. Was this played live? it sounds like it's live not a studio recording.
I think they played all 3 songs live in the studio
My favorite as well! I love the way his voice sounds on this ❣️
Sounds live studio recording you can tell by his vocal ❤
Funk
I guess played live with later overdubs. Sounds like this was intended as a suite, a whole side of a vinyl album. Should have been released - should still be released properly in this format. Definitive version of We Can Funk.
I would have sang Girl Of My Dreams to My Crush and played it religiously on my college radio shows! Peace!
one of the most amazing musical progressions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Prince is the Boss"
awesome artwork
We Can Funk 🎶🎶💜🎶🎶🕺
I had the bootleg record of this back in the late 80's
Only God knowa
Ty i met Rogers Nelson in 1980 and we had a God connection ty again and God bless you
Ty God bless
Love this songs of prince
Awesome bro
This post is only for the true PrinCe fans❤
Thank you 4 this🤘🎶💜

Fantastic!!
I never heard this wow
🔥🔥🔥🔥
WE CAN FUNKKKK IS FIYAHHHHHHHHH
Will there be a parade deluxe album?!! Or Around the world in a day deluxe?!
I’m still praying for both to get a deluxe album
💟💜💟💜💟💜💟💜💟😍
THATS ALSO THE TUNE TO J####U OFF CONTIVERTSY 1980
How come these weren’t on Sign deluxe?
Probably because most of the songs on here are from grafiti bridge
Well then here’s hoping we get a Graffiti deluxe soon
@@nicksimon7364 🤞
wouldn’t 86 be on a possible parade box?
@@spaceship5194 no because these songs would’ve been meant for dream factory/ sign o the times but since he didn’t release it on there and instead put it on graffiti Bridge it would make more sense if it was on a graffiti Bridge deluxe rather than a parade deluxe
Girl of My Dreams sounds like a Little Richard song!
😋🙊😇.
I have a cassette of the original recordings of these songs that prince sent me when I was like 16/17 the original title of all my dreams was welcome 2 the rat race .I also have the cassette of the black album the he sent me all in his handwriting and a copy of the controversy book
SIT DOWN!
@@Bryan_Kanaloa stand up
@@Bryan_Kanaloa 😂 They don’t even TRY any more do they?!? 🤣
Funny you say that. My best friend and I thought that In a Large Room with No Light was Welcome 2 the Rat Race when we first heard it.
I hope you've stopped smoking crack in the last 2 years.
I like it A lot more than you can ever get it now ☂️☂️☂️☂️⚡⚡⚡⚡🎓🎓🎓🎓🎓🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝🐝👄👁️
