It's definitely one of them "Irresistible Bitch/Cloreen Bacon Skin" songs, where P was just goofing off on bass and came up with the lyrics on the fly. I guess he was feeling it, tho. I kinda like it too, just for the humor.
I'm sick and tired of the Prince fans being sick and tired of the Prince fans that are sick and tired!

huh? I like this song! It's not a throw away at all, some cool production, speeded up guitar...

It's certainly not a throw away! And that bass is one of the best.

I'm not that keen on it anyway, but a B-side is a B-side. I prefer the bootleg version however, at least it comes with a more charming reduced sound quality.

If take the 45 version and change the speed to 33 rpm. You get a great Sly Stone Family Affair feel. A really cool thing for P to do.

demon YOU'RE CRAZY!!!!! demon

You have just unleashed the crazed fambot in the Mistress.

What the hell is plugging your motherfucking ears? This track is perfuckingfection!

He was bad!
He was fresh!
All the women say he was the best...


This is some bad shit! How is this not getting under your skin?

If you like anything Prince has ever done, you will swoon when he says,

I'm gonna shake my hips to the east
Shake my hips to the west
Until you make up-a yo mind
That my hip is the best-ah,
I said-a uh!


Absolutely classic. Shit like this is exactly why I love Prince.

P.S. You're crazy.


hmm

I agreed when I first heard what I thought was the extended version.
I bought what must be the UK 12" or something; it only has the edit of Love or Money on the B-side, but I didn't know this for years. When I finally heard the long version I realised how great it is. Similar to La, La, La, He, He, Hee, the edit sucks compared to the full-length.

eek

I always thought the lyric was:

"I'm gonna shake my head 2 the East, I'm gonna shake my hips 2 the West. Until U make up your mind, that my investment's the best"

But then again, I'm a bit deaf.
