    Woah! I had no idea they were fans.

    For anyone too lazy to look it up:
    Information Society is a synthpop band best known for their 1988 single What's on Your Mind? (Pure Energy), and fairly well known for additional singles Think, Walking Away, and Peace & Love Incorporated. Their act was sort of a parody/homage of the British synthpop groups that exploded in the 1980s, so they sound similar to Depeche Mode, Duran Duran, Erasure, New Order, Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark, etc.

    He also collaborated with Ween?? Man...

    Also: They found 99 items, but a Prince ain't one. :p

    Wait... Prince was doing a Transformers-themed album with anyone?

    I so want to hear it! :) 

    Some of the other stuff looks pretty interesting, too. Will be interesting to see what is done with it all, if they let us plebs know.

    Very cool! I hope we get to hear it someday.

    I'm actually more interested in the Ween collaboration. I've always known Ween were big fans of his (they even covered a song of his on an album) but I didn't know they worked together at some point.

    Awesome, thanks for posting those. I'd seen the first and third ones but I hadn't seen the second one. I'd love to know what Dean & Gene's take is on their collaboration with Prince (and Ozzy!).

    And I am dying to know what lyrics he wrote about Transformers. Had no idea he was a fan. Such a cool guy!

    This comes as quite a surprise, would love to hear it, even though I don't really like his other music. But I like manic Monday and nothing compares to you, so...

    Would be great if we got to hear it.
    I loved the album he did for the first Batman film and a TF themed Synthpop album would be awesome.

    wow, that's unexpected! I'm a huge Prince fan so would love to hear the vault stuff, though not as much as I'd rather he was still alive.

    Sweet! I like most of his music, so I hope that we all get to listen to it sometime in the near future. :thumb
