Sounds great from what I've heard.

loving it alot cant wait to hear the full version

sounds good..is he imitating a phone ringing?

sounds like Damn You part 2

Sounds like it would make a good mash up with Roberta Flack's & Donny Hathaway's The Closer I Get to You.

Throw in elements of La La La La Means I Love You.

Very classic R&B... certainly nothing like what's suggested by RNR Love Affair & Screwdriver.

It sounds kind of like Goodbye from Crystal Ball to me.

this actually sounds like a re-recorded version of something he wrote way, way before

he every got married to anyone.

i'm starting to get a little bit excited about what 2013 will actually bring us but i dare not

say it out loud or write it down.

Has a nice 70s vibe to it. Not convince I "love" it yet, but very promising.

got a sort of emancipation / rave drum machine

but not bad

I really dig what I'm hearing so far...more in line with the ole skool Prince ballad sound that I like...

Any guesses on what time period this is from? I can't tell how recent this is. Sounds like it could be from around the Emancipation era.

The bit I heard sounds beautiful.

I'm liking this a whole lot more than R&R Love Affair or the Screwdriver song. I really hope it gets released.

Who told you that this is "new"? It's a new leak, but is it actually a newly written and recorded song? Who's the source?

i like it...hope to hear the whole thing.

Lyrics in the snippet: "All by myself I wouldn't trust my heart to anyone, Cos somebody let me down So hard I fell...."

The snippets r getting shorter and shorter, but from what I heard it sounds nice 4 what it is...a ballad. Screwdriver got me more excited!

It sounds looped, not saying it is.. and the "ooo" sounds muddy

idk I still like to hear a full version

This sounds so generic in it's arrangement and composition! Like a parody by Prince standards of some rainstorm hour on an R&B station in the 80's. Glad he didn't put it out with this production.

The song kind of reminds me of Emancipation-era material (notably, "Betcha By Golly Wow!"). I definitely need to hear the whole song to arrive at a real opinion of it, though.
