"I probably feel just as gobsmacked as you and everyone else here. What we've witnessed is very special," La Havas told a BBC 6 Music News journalist in attendance at the living room show, where Prince rolled out two new songs from the upcoming Plecturn Electurn album, including first single, "PretzelBodyLogic" (which he debuted on TV sitcom, New Girl, following this year's Super Bowl).

"[Prince is] sharing music in the way it should be shared," La Havas added. "Just off the cuff, whenever you feel, just let people know, tell your friends and then� play."

The living room show doubled as a UK press conference, where Prince discussed a wide range of subjects, including his desire to charge a mere $10 (about �6) per ticket for the band's tour of England.

"This is a new band, people are getting something new," Prince said in regards to budget ticket prices, calling the UK tour "open ended�we're going to be here until people don't want to hear us anymore."

He also teased fans with talk of revealing music from his legendary "vault" of unreleased recordings, in part to counter the numerous demo versions of older material floating around on the web.
