You can hear Prince's vocals on it and the sound is definately Prince with No Doubt mixed in.

Gwen's vocals are so average now compared to her pre Tragic Kingdom days. The song does not suit No Doubt, but it's a well written song.

Hmmm...I remember reading that no one in No Doubt besides Gwen had any involvement with that song.

In any case, it definitely has the "sound" of the Rave era to me.

Yes,and I heard that Tony the bass player was particularly upset about that since he was a huge Prince fan growing up. Typical Prince, sticking with the woman only.

By fresh i mean it sounds quite new and original compared to 3121, Musicology or PE. All of those play on his earlier music. Not that its a bad thing

It's not a 'Prince song' you know, it was written by No Doubt.
It was a leftover track from their 'Return of Saturn' album,
which Prince then reworked for them. Similar story to what
happened with Kate Bush's 'Why Should I Love You' track.

There was so much fantastic material left over from ROS, it's crazy. That really was a truly fantastic album, one that I would put in the top 50 albums of all time.

I Love No doubt!

I remember when I first listened to Rock steady the album, how much I preferred it to Prince's Rave from a couple of years before, and wished Prince had release something on par/similar to it!!!
