Prince - "Joy In Repetition" (live Biloxi 2004)

Prince
"Joy In Repetition" LIVE
Mississippi Coast Coliseum, Biloxi
May 1st, 2004
Lyrics:
He like 2 frequent this club down up on 36th
Pimps and thangs like 2 hang outside and cuss 4 kicks
Talking 2 no one in particular, they say "the baddest I am tonight"
Four letter words are seldom heard with such dignity and bite
All the poets and the part time singers always hang inside
Live music from a band plays a song called "Soul Psychodelicide"
The song's a year long and had been playing 4 months
When he walked in2 the place
No one seemed 2 care, an introverted this-is-it look on most of their faces
Up on the mic repeating two words, over and over again
Was this woman he had never noticed before he lost himself in the
Articulated manner in which she said them
These two words, a little bit behind the beat
I mean just enough 2 turn U on
4 everytime she said the words another one of his doubts were gone
Should he try 2 rap with her?
Should he stand and stare?
No one else was watching her, she didn't seem 2 care
So over and over, she said the words til he could take no more, (no more)
He dragged her from the stage and 2gether they ran through the back door
In the alley over by the curb he said tell me what's Ur name
She only said the words again and it started 2 rain (rain, rain, rain)
Two words falling between the drops and the moans of his condition
Holding someone is truly believing there's joy in repetition
There's joy in repetition
There's joy in repetition
There's joy in repetition.
There's joy in repetition
She said love me, love me, what she say?
She say love me, love me
Joy, why don't u love me baby
Joy, why can't u love me baby
Joy, come on and love me baby
Joy in repetition
Alright, joy in repetition
Alright, joy in repetition
Alright, joy in repetition
Alright, joy, all my wishes add up 2 one
Love me, joy, love me, joy, love me, joy
Love me, love me, joy, joy, joy in repetition
Joy, joy in repetition
Joy, joy (love me) in repetition
Love me, love, joy, joy, joy in repetition
Joy, and I'm gonna say it again, joy, joy, and I'm gonna say it again
Joy, I'd like to go way up high and say, love me, joy
I'll say love me, joy
Joy, joy in repetition, joy in repetition
There's joy in repetition

I missed my concert in Biloxi. Was in hospital with pneumonia. I wanted to check myself out or come back after the concert😢. I've been searching for any music from that show since 2004. Thanks for sharing.

THERE'S JOY IN REPETITION! Thank you so much for sharing this! Anytime I can hear a live version of this or the The Question of U, I am so grateful!

Maceo Parker following Prince's verse's is just beautiful musicianship. And with that being said, of all the great saxophone player's he is the most soulful. And I don't mean any disrespect to King Cutis, Stanly Turrentine or Charlie Parker . Who are very soulful players in there own right. If you've ever listen to Maceo's work with James Brown and the Parliament Funkadelic plus the work he did with Prince you'll know what I'm saying.
