This song is incredible... are there any ladies on this site that can play some guitar like how he does it at the end of this song?

I really don't get this thread.

No but I keep on trying all the same

Nothing beats the March '81 NY show of this song; towards the end where he says, "Why you wanna treat me so bad...Bitch!" That's rock 'n roll.

I remember the R&B stations playing it to death back in the day. Only someone like Prince could get away with such airplay on R&B stations with a hard rock jam. The boy was definately bad.

This song got me interested in Rock back in the day. The solo is still one of fav and I think one the most inspiring solos of all time.

By Club Nouveau. That is a good song by them. but if u talking about a prince song, i have no idea what u talking about.

Out here in So. Cal., they played it a little bit. But yeah, P was the only cat that could have done that at that time. I remember diggiing "I Wanna Be Your Lover", then I saw the album cover and thought P was trying to look like one of the cats from the group Switch. Anyway, when I heard "Why You Wanna" and then "Bambi", I was hooked. Even as a kid, because of those two songs, THAT'S what sold me on Prince.

I'm talkin about how he rips it up on the guitar and wonder if any chicks can do the same. I bet Wendy could.

there's no "wanna" in their song title.

great track

I always dug how Prince would end this song live, and then play the music for "I Feel For You" with a wild guitar solo over it. Totally unreal.lol..Prince could have put out one hell of a rock LP back then if he wanted to.

This is a great song. One of my favorites from the "Prince" album. In fact the first 3 songs are all home runs to me.

I absolutelt Love this song

I'll gladly admit that this is the song that planted the seed in my head and made me into a total P fan, the ripping guitar rifts at the alpha and omega of the track was my initiation.

this along with lets go crazy were the reasons i picked up a guitar.....
