Prince and Nona Gaye Perform Love Sign on The Today Show

Venue: Today Show Location: New York, New York, United States Date: July 12, 1994

In July 1994, Prince performed 'Love Sign' with Nona Gaye on 'The Today Show,' right around the time he was promoting his album 'Come.' Released just a few months earlier in the same year, 'Come' was notable for its more mature themes, reflecting his artistic evolution. This live performance underlined the chemistry between Prince and Gaye, who is not only his collaborator but also the daughter of the legendary Marvin Gaye. Interestingly, during this period, Prince was navigating a tumultuous phase in his career, including a legal battle with his label, Warner Bros., over creative control, which ultimately led to him changing his name to an unpronounceable symbol. This performance captured not only the vibrant energy of 90s pop but also a pivotal moment in Prince's artistic journey.
