I always loved the lyrics and the arrangement of this song.

Only with it had more of it...too much instrumental after he stops singing.

I LOVE the song. That and New World together like that, man it's a 1-2 punch!

I loved his first real attempt at techno (Eye Wanna Melt With U) and I even enjoy Loose!, but I absolutely cannot stand The Human Body or New World

I liked it at the time, but it's not one I revist.

I do, and always did love New World though.

I liked it very much from Emancipation. Very unique and different from Prince's usual tactics

I admit...the first time I heard the beginning..I wasn't goin to give it a chance,but when I kept listening SHIT...i fell in love ! It reminds me of the nightlife. I wish the song was longer.

I hate it with a vengeance... but like NouveauDance, I really love New World. I think they are nothing alike.

New World really does go with it though...they go hand in hand.

The uptempo cuts off of Emancipation were pretty good I have to say..most of the songs I pulled from the 3 discs are the uptempo songs...even though the production was kind of flat..either not enough real instrumentation played a part or the drum machines used were too thin and full of treble however it did give a cold mechanic vibe to it..in some places it worked, but it was a little much.

This and New World are funky little house cuts. I love them.

Yes! I HATE when people refer to it/them as Techno! "Loose" would be considered Techno.

It's just pop music. All of it. It might have influences by things like techno or country or whatever else. But Prince writes pop songs. He can't not. Put "Loose!" before a Techno professional and see how they laugh at the effort.

Prince simple proving he hasn't got a clue how to do house. Weak track.

Truth.

Truth.

With everything Prince does he puts a Prince spin on it, but house (electronic dance music, whatever) is really not something he's ever done successfully. Of course, he had electro-funk totally in the bag, so he can't really complain.

chile

The Human Body feels things that it should naturally feel, that perhaps, morally it shouldn't?!? (in some cases.)

Absolutely briliant track. I love it. A song that proves that Prince has the skills to do house music.

i love that song

Like it!

One if the highlights on the album.

I really like the song because of its smoothe but racy appeal.

"Can U freak me dirty?"

LOVE THIS SONG!!!

Someone who makes a living doing techno music?

Someone who has professional knowledge of techno music?

Technically, it is something you study.

I agree entirely.

Honestly, Prince probably ushered in the first "house/techo" song and did it extremely well in Controversy. I dare people to say it isn't, and btw he has made some decent house efforts. I'm sure if Prince put his mind to it, he could rock out anything on Naked Music's catalogue. If you like house, that's the label to get.

What song on Controversy could be considered house? "Annie Christian"? lol

Yes, Naked Music does have a good catalog, but if U want funky house try Purple Music.

same here. new world is a great song.

i seem to remember a remix of the human body on an npgahdio show that i quite liked and

did play a lot. or perhaps it just preceded another remix (hot with u). i'll have to see if i can

dig up the ahdioshows somewhere along my cdrs.
