Who here likes these tracks?

Schoolyard is creepy to me. Poor Carrie.

My version isn't the greatest so maybe I need to go look up the lyrics

Schoolyard is a funky and funny jam that I liked since I first heard it.

Cookie Jam is a jam as well.I wanna hear the original Parlet (the George Clinton spin off group)'s version.

The original song "Cookie Jar" is by "Fuzzy" Haskins, an original member of the Parliaments (later Parliament) with George Clinton. It can be found on his debut album "A Whole Nother Thang."(1976)

The Parlet version is slamming too.

Indeed ...
Prince's version is closer to Parlet's version than to the original release by Fuzzy Haskins

Kick-ass song

Thanks for the info!

I kinda like the drumbeat of "Schoolyard" - the snare and the kickdrum are very cleverly displaced.

It took me a while to figure out where the "one" is...

i've actually had "schoolyard" in my head for a couple of days now-
i love this track. i wish i had a cleaner version.

this and "teacher, teacher" are two of my favories unreleased tracks.
i guess it's cause i went to 12 years of strict catholic school and
the thought of being dirty in or around the school was so exciting/forbidden to me.

"i don't know what to do with you when he gets ya....

put you in his cookie jar,save you for a rainy day"

for some reason this song makes me think of the munchkins in the wizard of oz.

I thought Cookie Jar was a Parlet cover?

Cookie jar is one of my favourites and school yard is pretty good.
