I LOVE it! It's a charming as hell power pop ditty. Sounds like a Dirty Mind B-side. The lyrics are some of his most self-aware in a long time, and they're also humorous. This is just a fun, groovy song, and a nice surprise.

I like it...think he's going for some radio play with it's catchy after a couple of listens...

I was thinking it'd be cool if he did a remix contest with this one. Release the individual tracks and have a prize for the best remix and maybe release some of the best ones. There are so many people out there who would love the chance to work on a Prince song.

I finally have the song (don't ask ) and I really like it. Reminds me of an early 80s b-side...and that's NOT AT ALL a bad thing.

Got thrown off by expecting a rocker. I should know better by now.

It's a fun pop song. Not a classic, but not a throwaway. Something fun to listen to on a sunny day.

NO MATTER WHAT I DO, IT WON'T APPROVE ANY PASSWORD I PUT IN. I WANT TO PURCHASE THE DAMN SONG, BUT IT WON'T LET ME THROUGH. IS ANYONE ELSE HAVING THIS TROUBLE????

OK i'm willing to pay for this, but the 3121 site is giving me a hard time on this.

Anyone willing to help me out some way?

I agree, I can't stop listening to it

Very cool song , I've had a problem with some of Prince's funk and rock efforts of the last few years but I've never lost faith in him when hes produced a pure pop song , and thats what this is , he can still turn it out , loving it .

I totally dig it... create vibe. Reminds me of his golden period.

Tragically, I, Aerogram, old timer, am still without a song in my heart.

When I try to register, it rejects my proposed password. I tried different ones with the required 7 characters and 1 non-alphanumeric character... to no avail.

I was excited about this download after hearing new snippets on Howard Stern. I just dl'd and listened once. I think its cheesy. I am usually excited to show off new music to friends (esp. Prince). But I think I will keep this one tucked away in my hard drive and listen to it over and over. Hopefully, I will learn to like it. But I'm still not going to play it in front of anyone.

I'm having the same problem! I think I've purchased it 3x and it keeps saying duplicate with no link. I went up to "ur account" and still no link. Help!

I'm no idiot when it comes to purchasing music online, but 3121 is really giving me trouble. It won't let me download.

Help me!!!!!

me too, this sucks|!!!

Murph's verdict...


a fun little song...Not a homerun by any means...But a nice little single through the gaps...But what's most intriguing about it is the production...It seems like he's gone back to the basics...Very early '80s, B-Side sound...And it's weird, which shows him going at least in the right direction...

Guitar.....hmm looks like Prince is doing b-sides again. That's nice it could be a b-side to an 80's Prince album for sure. Cool.

ps. For all the peeps havin' trouble with the password you need to add a non letter or number like a * or a % or a # to your password.

I think it's picky about which non-alphanumeric character it will accept. It hated on my hyphen and wouldn't let me in until I used an exclamation point.

LOL, im sorry 4 offending u guys, i me and a friend, who is not a Prince fan, wanted 2 c if everybody was speaking the truth about the song or not. We were trying not 2 get a biased opinion. It is bcuz he mentioned that Prince fans r biased, like with the Prince vs Michael Jackson thread. So it was just an experiment. Thanks 4 the fun time. U guys r harsh.

Moonbeam said:

Don't sleep on the asterisk (*) either. Worked like a charm.

I'm glad so many people like it. For me...nope.

Wow dislike outweighs the like on this thread. At least you guys are very honest which it is cool.

Still pondering.... Order "Guitar" or order "Guitar" not?

Moonbeam said:

Hey, wait! The exclamation point is mine. Find yourself another non-alphanumeric, you punk, you!

im feeling very let down right about now.
