Revisting Breakfast Can Wait

So, back in 2014 when Prince dropped this single I at first giggled at the cover, when I listened to the song I rolled my eyes. I don't know what has come over me lately, but when I heard the song again yesterday on my Spotify I realized. THIS SONG IS A BOP!

What the hell was I thinking?! This song is so good, it makes me want to break my celibacy and call up one of my old....

Anyway, have ya'll revisted a P song that was lowkey a bop?\

That song is sexy as hell. My clear favorite on AOA.

It's one of his more bland and uninspired songs.

It's ok until the chipmunk voice, but I've never been a big fan, and I was disappointed to see it on AOA.

Fallinlove2nite is a better song and would have been a better fit.

Yes this is exactly when I hit skip, similar to Sticky Like Glue when he starts talking about the coolest movie ever, its all brick

.

I do appreciate that this is another of the late-era songs that references and seems to come from dreaming, which fascinates me.

if it was just a dream, call me a dreamer 2

I wasnt here for that too. But the rest of the song kind of makes up for it. Although, the high pitch chimpmunk voice had me like

Love it! Even the "chipmunk voice" part is cute, that's his style. "Come here baby, let me put u on my plate" dancing jig. Was a bop from jump touched. Haven't checked the remixes yet tho lurking...

For all time I am with you, you are with me.

It is one of his creative songs, just like Positivity, meaning there is no other song on this earth that sounds similar. The chipmunk voice is a brilliant addition. I like it. It's sexy.

Hmmm...I don’t know about that. It’s just a slow funk groove millions of songs like it on this earth.

I've always liked it.
Takes me back to the mystery and excitement of the beginning of the 3rd Eye Girl stuff when it was released with Screwdriver Remix and RNR 7.
Could have done with it being left off AOA though in favour of an unreleased track

Lol. I didn’t have a problem with the chipmunk voice (is that really Prince y’all?) but I couldn’t concentrate on the song after that shyt.


:-P

At first I was shocked to hear Mr Chipmunk then I thought it was funny. I had an altogether different response to the monkey impression on X’s Face.

I do think this is an ok track and it is a grower, but the subject is very inappropriate.

If this was performed by a guy in his 20s then maybe it wouldn't seem so cringeworthy!

I believe hitting skip while listening to a record denotes immaturity or emotional problems.

I wish there was a serious psychiatric study about this, to see if science corroborates my theory or if I'm totally wrong nod

IDK, I guess people in their 50's still have sexual impulses, don't they?

Maybe singing Head or Sister at 55 woulda been odd, I'll give you that, but this track is pretty intimate in the end, it pretty much describes an everyday life situation that people of any age can experience.

On the scale of Ballad to Bop this song is definitely a Banger.

Sex before breakfast is inappropriate for people older than the 20s?

My brother ruined this song on these two verses.

" I ain’t tryin’ to make you blush But I just wanted to tell ya, I think you’re gaaay."

"Hotcakes smothered in honey
(Wait a minute)
I’m gon’ have to pass
Fresh cup of coffee, no, no
I’d rather have you in my ass."
