Cherry Cherry

I just love discovering Prince songs I'd never heard before. Yeah,I know I'm late, but can someone tell me when and where it's from?

Are you referring to "Tina Cherry"? Which is not a Prince song.

Cherry Cherry is on the NPG EXODUS album. I hate to say this but I DON'T LIKE IT. It shouldn't have been on this album.

I really like it. GET WILD, THE GOOD LIFE, COUNT THE DAYS. Those are all on there. It's a funky album.

Why thank you LMK!! I love your sig. I'm a big DeeLite fan myself. I swear to God if you play the album Dew Drops In The Garden all the way through, all your troubles go away.

I'm also a Rocky fan.

Yes,it is a cover of an M.C Hammer tune.
Prince even uses a few "classic" M.C Hammer samples.
It was also written by "Hammer" under an alias.
"Hammer" actually has written some of Princes biggest chart hit's using an assumed name.

"Cherry Cherry" and "Count The Days" are the only two songs I like from the "Exodus" album. The segues between each song are absolutely corny as hell.

I find it quite strange that you start a number of threads about the most
vile and horrible tunes put down to tape in recorded history yet at the
same time call a song like "Cherry Cherry" 'rubbish'

Cherry Cherry and Exodus are the only songs that I listen to from this cd. I may give the cd a new listen, maybe discover a few songs that I did not like before.....

Cherry Cherry's ok. I can take it or leave it. I'd prbably like it better if Prince were actually singing lead on this and not Sonny T.

Good luck finding it. Also it should be noted that Prince does not sing lead on all of the songs. He and Sonny T share lead vocals on most of the songs or Sonny sings lead and you can hear Prince harmonizing or ad-libbing in the background. I think Prince may have sole lead on "Return of the Bump Squad".

Again i could not bear to listen to it even once 'cause I thought it was some corny 50's shit so I switched it off.


I hear a few seconds sometimes, then I quickly switch it off.

Eh, different strokes for different folks I guess, because that old school feel to it is what stopped me cold, made me listen and want to know where it came from.
