okay after listen #2, i'm not trying to be funny or sarcastic, but while doing something else while listening to the song, it sounds like he is saying...."i'm on cortizone" instead of "te amo corazon".....i swear to you it sounds like he is saying that when you aren't paying attention

no lie, try it and see what you think...

Concerning that he just had a hip replacement and a pianful divorce after his wife had a 22-month pregnancy, not bad for a 47-old guy who is bald, eh?

Anyway, I love the song.

I hope it's one of Prince's misleading tricks to get people to buy the album. Since the general public these days never gets past mellow or midtempo, hopefully he's trying to mislead them into buying an album full of hardcore funk totally unlike the lead single. The same strategy as the lead single "Kiss" and the "Parade" album but in reverse.



Don't hold your breath. smile


Believe me, I know better than to hold my breath. I'd be dead by now. lol

Prince production. It's cool and I can't deny genius...but would love to see him just jam with others and let it go. It sounds so produced sometimes, its hard to imagine this song sounding spontaneous. Then you hear the 1st outtake of "Old Friends 4 Sale" then the final Vault version..ohh boy, then I just imagine.

Heck with it, I live for the live shit..and thats why I wanna go see him and hang in there over the years. The live shit is where its at. This guy gets it down too good on the albums sometimes! I still like it cause the options of who else to listen to suck (minus Bowie).

I listened to the song and watched the video a few times and the fable of the Emperor parading down the street in his "new clothes" kept coming to mind. I want to believe this is the shit but I think the Emperor, in this instance, is really just naked.

It's like chili without a really saucy kick or something.

very prety song, his best in way too long, those that dont like it are the ones that been digging the corny stuff from the last decade,
love the music, would love an instrumental version of this.

Just saw the video and heard the song. It's cute ...short and sweet.

I must say I am glad it's not a long assed power ballad with a big bombastic ending along the lines of the stuff on Emancipation.

OK, I just now saw the video on VH1. It's what I expected....some adult comtemporary bullshit....but it's not as bad as I was expecting it to be. I have heard worse from Prince such as "The One" which is what I was expecting it to be similar to except with a Spanish vibe.

It's what others have described....it's a "pretty" and "beautiful" song....exactly the kind of shit I don't like. I like "hard" and "kick ass" and if it's gonna be a slow song, it needs to be a "nasty" "fuckable" bedroom jam like "Do Me, Baby".

By the way, I hope that DAMN "waldo" ass orchestra doesn't linger throughout the whole album.

I like the first verse. This is the kind of song that goes in and out, like beets out of a babies backside. It is safe and non offensive--not very eclectic, especially since albums lately have been complexity contests.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!

That's exactly what I found once I really started to listen to the song instead getting all swept up by the admittedly gorgeous video.

An enthusiastic co-sign thumbs up! thumbs up!

Prince went "Antonio Carlos Jobim" on that ass!! Great song. It probably will take most listeners (even some within the NPGMC) a little time to catch on to his new direction however. This is because they listen with just their ears and not their heart and mind. Nevertheless, the song is rich in latin rythms and the Santana like solo is off the hook. I can't wait to hear the entire album.



I think that its actually going to be much much harder for orgers and those within the NPGMC to catch on than it will be for the general radio listening public who hasn't followed P's every move over the past umpteen years.

This song is a flop! It will get very little airplay if any. Hopefully the lp contains a gem. I've played it half a dozen times, still don't like it.

Didn't have any preconceived ideas about TAC...I kinda like it now, pretty smooth, and it feels like it's going to grow on me.

In fact, it reminds me of another song and I can't quite put my finger on which one... hmmm

Jughead... nod biggrin

I prefer 'The one', a million times. I've listened four times to 'Te amo corazon' (disbelief I still can't get past the horrible title, what's next 'Ich liebe dich, wienerschitzel'???) and at first I thought it was mediocre, now I think it's horrible.

I mean 'The one' at least has some emotion in it. This one, I dunno, even Prince himself seems bored as hell.

I'm not sure whether I will check out the video. I've already had a bad night...
