Dinner w Delores vs Fixurlife up

Why does Fixurlifeup remind me of Dinner with Delores?

I have not havd a chance to pull out Chaos & Disorder 2 take a listen but that is the 1st thing I thought of when playing Fix.

Im guessing Fixurlifeup sounds like Dinner With Delores to you because your dealer has sold you some substandard merch this week?

The two songs sound nothing alike whatsoever. Im actually perplexed as to how you could even remotely compare the two songs.

Ok. Like I said, I haven't compared, it reminded me of it.

Is it how he's picking out the strings on the riff? It's not something prince does that often but the riff in both songs is based on strings ringing out rather than chords or fancy fretwork.

Whitecaps sounds like Wooden Ships by Crosby Stills and Nash to me.

Breakdown reminds me of Moonbeam Levels. shrug
