I like the song and I'm glad to see that P is back to feeling comfortable enough to share his views on worldly issues and to try to guide us to "the purple rain" again. Lead on baby---if anyone can get the idea across to people, you can.

"b" side is no excuse. Some of Prince's best music were b-side tracks....

Yeah Anxiety, Brando's dead, ya dummie. Oh beHAAAAAVE!!

It's funny, b/c my favorite part is the part everyone on the Quake seems to despise: Do-do-do do-do-dooo, Do-do do do do-do-doooo, Do-do-do do-do-doooo, Doo....
No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

Sex is not love. Love is not sex. Putting words in other people's mouths will only get you elected.

I would like to add that I dig the arrangement of the lead-line that is reminiscent of those on the Jackson 5 LP “Maybe Tomorrow”. I think the song was “I Will Find a Way”. Jus’ more of them ol’ school joints to keep the party movin’…

and 77 cents for members..even a better value!

I like this song a lot. Just as good as Magnificent. As Anx mentioned before...somewhere between Chocolate Invasion and Slaughterhouse.

Perfect for and 4th of July Sunday BBQ! Show your patriotism and let your Freak Flag Fly! B-Side/A-Side whatever....it kicks booty.

I like that part too. Kinda strange and fits in weird...but the song goes between this cool new funk and a retro 60's 70's groove.

It's more interesting than anything on "Musicology". Not that that's saying much, and neither's the song.
There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently

I like it, but I can't help thinking it would probably be quite a bit better if it was sped up just a bit and Camille sang the vocals. cool

I wish these were more positive reference points for me. After buying "Magnificent" - totally unimpressed - and hearing The Chocolate Invasion and Slaughter House - totally unimpressed bordering on sheer, overwhelming irritation - I doubt I'll bother tracking the song down. But that's just me... I'll stick with Musicology for the time being, and hope that he continues to differentiate between material good enough for mass release and throwaway rejects.

But that's just me, and no offense to anyone who likes those songs/albums.
