Chasing	GIRLS & BOYS (Appreciation) What a classic tune - what a wicked synth line, what a brilliant and exciting recording. I will never forget the first time I heard it when I spun my Parade LP - awesome . . if only if only it was mixed with Life Can Be So Nice and that had the extended horn solo on the vinyl! Nonetheless, show your love ????

AsianBomb777	Love the entire album. Originally, THAT was my favorite song off the album, though it is kind of long and drawn out now when I listen to it. My favorites currently on PARADE, are Mountains & Life Can Be So Nice

"Girls and Boys" was one of the first Prince tunes I had in my head for about 2 months straight. Something about the song made a connection to me, and I wound up whistling it everytime I walked down the hallway in school. Neat-o tune from the Parade album. Classicness.

Prince knew how nasty this tune was. On some recordings of the Parade tour rehearsals, whilst jamming on Girls&Boys he can be heard saying -

"If i heard this on the radio i'd be scared to death... the new record by culture club! ha ha"

"if i heard this on the radio, i'd quit"

You do as I say

subhuman09	One of my favorite Prince songs period. (Parade is a definite favorite as well.) (Although Gold Nigga could be well-something useful to someone?.)
