Ya gotta love I Wish U Heaven Part 2 and 3, don't cha?

...Take this beat, I don't mind
I got plenty others and they so fine
I said take this beat, I don't mind
I got plenty others and they so fine

Take my coffee, but don't U touch my cream
Make me holler, make me scream
Your sister ugly, that's the truth
She pees in the backyard, sleep on the roof

Take this beat, U know U need it
I give U a white dove, why'nt U feed it?
I gave U sweet love, U put it in the corner
Gave U candy, U say U don't want it

Take this beat, I don't mind (Lord)
I got plenty others and they so fine
Take this… take this beat

Teal-blue overcoat on my back
'67 T-Bird, heart attack
I got peace-sign sneakers, pleated slacks
Don't fuck with me, I'll slap yo' ass!...


That has got to be in your top 10.

There are various unedited mixes of it about, but it wasn't scheduled to be released as a single (either A side or B side), or promo-ed in this format.

Has anyone heard the extended version of "Dorothy Parker"? It was pressed in extremely limited quantities (as a test pressing, I think).

"Mountains" is great too!

I have a 6:10 version of "Dorothy Parker". It's pretty cool. The first 3 minutes or so are instrumental (I love that drum beat). I filed it under Prince DJ mixes. Not sure if it's the one you're talking about.

Raspberry Beret.

Surprisingly, the 12" version of this song takes a very dark turn halfway through. The tight cheerful little pop song becomes something very different indeed....!

I also like the Party Man 12" version.

Oh yes there is!

I was listening to it this morning - it is absolutely awesome.

I just wish Prince would release a perfectly produced version of it.

Other 12" inches I just thought of that are fantastic:

Shockadelica - FAR better than the basic version.
Pop Life - like Raspberry Beret, I find it makes the song a lot darker in tone.

For fuck's sake, there is NO 12" mix of "Computer Blue"! There are longer versions knocking about, but there is no specific 12" mix of the song.

Wish I knew for sure, even if it was unofficial. The regular version goes through an incredible arrangement, so I can imagine an extended version (if there is one).

There IS a longer version, in fact there are 4 longer versions, but it's no 12". It's just a longer version, that was supposed to be on the album but was shortened to include Take Me With U.
