vinyl two, side c ;

6. ALBUM VERSION 5:29

7. JASON NEVINS EXTENDED REMIX 6:41

8. NEPTUNES REMIX EDIT featuring Q-Tip 3:42




catalog nr : 0 7822-13750-1 6, printed in USA



It seems that Prince did all the vocal parts for the
Nevins mixes again. Because the song's on a different
(up-tempo) speed. Both different mixes have other vocal
arragements towards the end of the mix. It means that a
lmonger version of the original take probably excists, so
this could be the longer version that will be on the later
to be released RAVE version.



The "JASON NEVINS ROMANCE BEATS (6:03)" is nothing more
than beats. The only Prince thing to be heard here is the
line "TGRES" in the beginning of the mix and that's it.
No further instrumentation except for drums en fill ins.
Bad mix if you ask me.
But i like both edit mixess of the song. They're even more
radio friendly in my opinion. Both mixes are dance mixes.
Jason nevins' remix sounds like the eighties on acid. I
like the new guitar parts in here as weel as the new synth
parts. I wonder who played them... They don't sound like
they're from the hand of the little man.
I don't know... but it's sure good. Neptunes mix should be
on the album instead of prince's version...
