I love Thunder. Im fact, I'm playing it right now. Mellow1 said it perfectly, it was a great way to open Diamonds and Pearls. I can see these lyrics acted out in my head everytime I play it. Great track indeed.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

It's good, but it goes on a little too long without really staying particularly interesting.
The world is a comedy for those who think and a tragedy for those who feel.

A little. Great live though, i remember queing outside Maine road, Manchester on a hot summers day in 92, when he was soundchecking. Thunder was one of those songs. I Couldn't wait to get in. Awesome.

I agree with all the overprodution comments....beat is too mechanical, too fussy.

And "Come and save your soul tonight"? Laaaaame.
