Nobody really talks about this, but I think the intro to this song is one of Prince's most unexpected, moving, interesting and effective moments. Just after U Got The Look fades out, this violin sample fades up, cut off by a spruiker saying "Look at the bargains over here, ladies..." and a cheap organ playing Here Comes The Bride. I get shivers from the little vocal bit that crosses over the channels after that. Then all those ad-libbed vocalisations over the music. Wow.

I agree i think that is one of his most moving songs, i dunno about unexpected though...
i am goin to listen too it now also.. lol IIWYG.. kicks arse.. lets just put it thatta way..

Indeed it is a great piece of music. The live version from the sign o' the times concert movie is even better. Perhaps his greatest moment on record?

It ripped this song from Mtume note for note.

When I first heard it I couldn't believe it. I was like damn!!!
I think was his way of getting back at Mtume for using the beat of Nasty Girl for Juicy Fruit. But since Mtume was hardly known to the masses it's like no one has a clue. I'm surprise there was never a suit.

The whole damn song is genius.
