SCHOOL YARD

How many people here love this song. I know I do.

I remember it being mentioned in a Rolling Stone article. I love Rosie's vocals on it.

Camped out in his dressing room under a gaucho hat, Prince plugs in a tape bearing some early versions of some songs he's written on tour. Prince says the first song, called "Schoolyard," is about "the first time I got any." Funny and funky, the song is an inner-city Summer of '42 that tells the story of a fumbling sixteen-year-old-boy trying to seduce a girl to the strains of a Tower of Power album. "I think that's something everybody can relate to," he says.

I agree. Schoolyard is cool but it has nothing on Rebirth... NOTHING
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that
