PRINCE HAS LOST HIS FUCKIN MIND!

You may have thought he was crazy, but now its been confirmed.

PRINCE HAS LOST HIS FUCKIN MIND!

First off, I am a big fan of his music. He is an amazing song writer and performer. I saw the Coachalla clip of him playing Radiohead's "Creep" and it was great.

The short version of this is that Prince under his company- NPG Records has told YOUTUBE to remove the video clips citing copyright laws. No one can see the clip including the song writers and owners - Radiohead. Radiohead wanted to see the clip after hearing so many things about Prince's rendition of one of their most successful tunes and could not see it.

It is common knowledge that Radiohead recently released an entire album for free (more accurately- pay what you want) the album proved highly successful and critically acclaimed though actual sales figures were never released.

But here we have an artist claiming copyright laws for a song that is NOT HIS. Radiohead band members are apparently trying to remain civil about this and have requested that Prince UNBLOCK the clips and allow them to be viewed again on youtube and other outlets.
