Girl IS indeed from the golden age of b-sides. I LOVE IT.

The summer after my freshman year of college was when ATWIAD came out, and it was one great single after another. All these colorful picture sleeves with paisley labels. Pardon the drama, but it was a super sweet time to be a Prince fan.

That same summer I was at First Avenue and found myself standing RIGHT NEXT to Prince, who was wearing a bright red jumpsuit, and that Liza Minelli hairdo he sports in the Raspberry Baret video. I was too terrified to say anything to him, plus it was sort of understood that you didn't bug him at First Ave, since it was his hangout.

The song "Come" has a better sex solo....and it's a 12" that he just decided to start the album with.

I agree with all the wonderful things already stated about the amazingly unique and totally PRINCE, song that is the "Girl" 12".

In fact, this thread has inspired me to go listen to it right now. smile

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

NO WAY! Girl is from the glorious time of amazing B sides. Nothing embarrasing about it at all!! not even close! It's the type of song that completely differentiated Prince from other artists and helped establish a very hardcore set of fans. It's not meant to be for the casual top 40 pop listener, but if you want to have a full picture of what Prince was about during the 80s, the B sides provide it.

I love Girl tis a truly great track.
It should have made The album. ATWIAD.




"Girl" was in fact an earlier track, a leftover from the "1999" era which was resurrected as a B-side.

Prince left it pretty much intact, which probably explains why it would not have fit within the context of ATWIAD.


.

Yep.

Girl is one of the greatest songs ever recorded; just the synth melody makes me cum in colours of the rainbow. This is what I talk about when I mention his innovative side. He will never reach this pinnacle again. And, if you do not like this tune, then you have no sense, and you should quit the org and become a monk or nun.
All you others say Hell Yea!! woot!
