"Gotta Stop Messin' About"...Do You Like? I remember this song being the first B-side to any single I've ever heard by Prince. Although I haven't heard it in a while (yes, I know it's on the HITS-B Sides), I still can imagine him in his bikinis, high heels, and guitar strap wailing on that guitar and jumping from the speakers.
I know he's older now, but man, I would love to see some footage of him jamming out to this song. "Ow!!!!!, Ah, Ah, Yeah!!!!!" | |

Never liked it... But here's a grain of salt for you - as much as people love "When You Were Mine" I've never liked it all that much I know it's a great song, I always sing along when he plays it live & all but it's a take it or leave it kinda thing for me. I think I've just heard it too much... | |

I really like Gotta Stop I think it really compliments the Dirty Mind album. If Dirty Mind ever gets reissued Gotta Stop should be a bonus track. Love the line 'What goes on inside your head that makes u want 2 take them all 2 bed' if you've gotta pay for things that you've done wrong I've gotta big bill coming at the end of the day- Gil Scott Heron

I love this song a lot. It is the B Side to the "Let's Work" 12 inch.
I saw it performed live on a bootleg copy of the "Dirty Mind" tour live from the Ritz in New York. Andy is a four letter word. | |

I really like the New wave rhythm of it ...and I agree, it should have been reissued on the Dirty Mind CD as a bonus track... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

Love it. Almost all his 80's b-sides are fantastic. The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.
