Does anyone else Jam to "She's Always In My Hair" too... isn't this song just one of the funkiest cuts he has?.... I can dance to this cut everytime I hear it. Ya'll let me know whatcha thank of this song?

This is easily one of his easiest dancing and funky songs. Clearly the best B-Side.

I have a "not so good sound" quality mp3 version but I'd love to hear it for real
Is it on a CD cause I do love this song

If you're willing to pay 40$ for "the Hits/B-Sides"...

He should have put this on around the world in a day.

I always crack up at what people dance to I would never dance to this song. Not that it's not great, it's a killer fucking track, but certainly not music I feel like dancing too

thekidsgirl said:

It's only on the 3cd hits/b-sides compilation. And it's shamefully edited. To get the full version you'll need to track down the Raspberry Beret 12 inch, but it's well worth it.

I agree but it sounds very synthy and 80's unlike most of "around the world in a day"

I love the song too. Could do ballet to this song. Was this one of the songs chosen for that ballet thing that Prince was involved with in the early 90's? I seen the VHS ONCE in my whole life. Anyoone got the show with Prince songs arranged into ballet pieces? How is it like?

for real huh

Is it just me, or in FYE, do I only see seperate versions of "the Hits 1" and "the Hits 2", but no seperate "The B-Sides" this really bothers me because I bought the first two seperately and I don't wanna rebuy them just to get the bsides but I want it so bad!

RazzBeret said:

I guess you're a marketing guinea pig. They threw in the b-sides to entice people to buy both, and I'm glad they did cos they're worth every penny.

RazzBeret said:

But I have the Hit 1&2 I ain't buying them again

...well I didnt really "buy" the first 2 (gifts) but still $40 bucks?!

one of my favorite jams. P would reward us with the crazy b-sides back in the day.

thekidsgirl said:

try and sell them then buy it. or use them as a gift yourself...the hits 1 was what got me into Prince...

thekidsgirl said:

You can get it cheaper on Amazon or BMGmusic. I'm like you though, I really want the B-Sides, but I'm not re-buying Hits 1 and 2. Oh well!

I wish I could just find someone with the whole set but everybody I know
just bought the 2 Hits CDs separately since the 3 disc set came out later
I guess?

I remember the day I bought this one. I rode my JMC Racing Bike across town to Fred Meyer with $5 and some change. I bought the 12-inch, they bagged it for me, and with my heart racing, I got back to my bike, fumbled with the bike lock, and rode back home. I remember some kids teasing me as I rode by them, but nothing could break my spirit. I finally got home, got into the house, opened up all the doors and windows, went to my mother's old Packard Bell television with the turntable inside the top, unwrapped the record as fast as I could, let it spin, put the need to the record, turned up the speakers, and...

It was all worth it!! I've always LOVED that song, AND the 12-inch mix of "Raspberry Beret."

Well, I'm sorry that I'm only 14 and don't have a job and don't earn a lot of money, I think I'm doing pretty good by owning all of his albums except 3!

Love this song. Excellent guitar playing.
Love the strings. Love the touch.

A classic

bountyhunterseven2000 said:

Yep, those were the days! I also remember the day of release of a new Prince album (e.g. Around the World in a Day, Parade, etc.) and having to go to school that day all anxious about riding my bike across town after school got out so that I could get the new music as soon as possible! And then when I got home, I'd be dancing all over the house -- my friends thought I was crazy... but it was great!!

RazzBeret said:

Hey Razz, you got a used record shop in town? If you do, check out their CD selection, they might have some of what you need, and at a cheap price. Just make sure to examine the CD for any bad scratches before buying it. It's also a good way to stock up on vinyl singles and 12-inches! If ya got a turntable.

My favorite Prince song. I love the different versions of it.

Great song but I like D'angelos version better. This is one of those rare occasions when the cover version of a song is better than the version.

andykeen said:

wow, me too

When I first heard this song my first thought was "lol get some better shampoo guy LOL!" Then, years later, it hit me that he probably didn't mean she was literally in his hair.

andykeen said:

Oh, yeah! really good

I don't agree that it's better than the original. D's version starts off very promisingly but gets boring and repetitive as the song goes on. Unlike P's original
