Player Versus Mr. Goodnight

Player is superior to Mr. Goodnight...shame it's unreleased...and such a shitty quality (still the 30YOUF Vol. 1 is a great improvement)

Oh, yeah, Player is superior. "Don't make me serenade U like a beggarman..."

Such a great unreleased track.

I agree.....waaaay better and it actually sounds original & fresh, unlike Mr. Goodnight which is kinda enjoyable but it sounds like some recycled R&B garbage.

This has allways been one of my fav outtakes biggrin


Player

So there U are
About time U showed up
Yeah, I know what U heard
But let me talk

Baby, take a look outside your window
And see your future standing there
I've been here 4 a while now, baby
Or maybe U weren't aware
I knew that U heard every single story
About all the friends that I've got
But baby, if U give me 7 years of your time
All the friends I would have not

CHORUS:
Player - If I had U girl, I wouldn't be one
Player - If U'd let me in the mix, we could have fun
Player - If life was a movie, U'd have the main part
Girl, U're number one with a bullet on my charts

Don't make me say I need U like a beggar-man
Why don't U let me come inside?
I'm the type of male that a girl like U is in need of
Sho' U right
I could take U sailing in a glass bottom boat
U could drink wine while I read poems that I wrote

I'm sick of fishing in the big sea, baby
I wanna check out the settling down
I wanna dock my boat in your fairway
In your kisses I wanna drown {x3}

CHORUS

If I had U girl, I wouldn't be one

Friends, whatever they told U, they lied
My life's an open book, I ain't got nothing 2 hide
I need U like a beggar, yeah, I got no pride
Open your heart, let me come inside

CHORUS

Baby, take a look outside your window
And see your future standing there
I've been here 4 a while now, baby
Or maybe U wouldn't care
I knew that U heard every single story
About all the friends that I've got
But baby, if U give me 7 years of your time
All the friends I will have not

Player - If I had U girl, I wouldn't be one
Player - If U'd let me in the mix, we could have fun
Player - If life was a movie, U'd have the main part
Cuz girl, U're number one with a bullet on my charts

Player {x3}

So that's my day in court

There is absolutely no reason to believe that Player is any better of a song than Mr. Goodnight, other than it is one of those "magical, mystical" unreleased Prince songs.

If Mr. Goodnight was unreleased and Player followed Future Baby Mama on Planet Earth, you all would say that Player was crap.

He is exactly who we thought he was

You are wrong.

It's because Player is simply a great song, and always has been regarded so. The comparison only comes in because of the similar sing-speak style of vocals.

I don't get this 7 years thing,why would she need to give him 7 years b4 he can convince. He said the samething in "Let's Pretend Were Married" "If Your free 4 a couple of hours, if u ain't busy 4 the next 7 years" Shit he don't need 7 years with me he can give me one night with a bottle of "Mad Dog 20 20" and i'll be hooked! razz
