 the only purplepeating sob who deosn't like this song, it's commercial aor at it's worst...the only song I skip on musicology. I like the lyrics and context, plus the video is cool, but the song is so pop. If I wanna listen to cinnamon girl I listen to this guy.
  As a Prince fan, I hate say it but I prefer Neil Young's song over his any day. | |

A great "pop" tune. What the hell does that mean anyway? Its popular? Is that so wrong? The whole albums is "popular" because it sold lots.
"Pop" is not a genre, unless you subscribe to the layouts in record stores. Besides, how many "pop" tunes have lyrics or a video like Cinnamon Girl? I say, give us more like this P! . | |

Serious said: raveon2tnek said: the lyrics are an integral part of the music. they both cannot be taken in isolation. what part of the music dont you like? Like i said, I don't wanna listen to lyrics like that coming from someone who refuses to vote. Moreover I can't stand to listen to the song, so even if I liked the lyrics, I still could not stand the music. The verses are a rip-off of "Money don't matter tonight" IMO (and I never was a huge fan of that song in the first place) and the chorus just makes me  . Everytime my boyfriend or I listen to the song played on the radio or TV we just  and hope nobody realizes that it is by Prince and asks as if we are a fan.i rest my case on this issue. i shall no longer join issues with you on this one. peace and be wild{whatever that means!} | |
