Gett Off or Violet the Organ Grinder I don't usually start a thread like this with my own answer to it but while Gett Off is cool,Violet the Organ Grinder is an all time favorite! | |

like a puppy, I licked your devotion
from your neck, from your eyes, from your ears when you cried, I became your emotion & if you ever cry like that again, I'll be here 'cause I am Violet, the Organ Grinder & I grind all the livelong day I live for the organ I'm grinding I'll die but I won't go away | |

Gett Off
Perfect performance by Prince, Tony M, & Rosie Gaines. | |

Violet!
But speaking of Gett Off: what did he mean with "something about a little box with a mirror and a tongue inside" ? Sounds like something creepy from a David Lynch movie, not something sexy. | |

Gett Off... one of my 5 fave Prince songs " A mind changed against its will, is of the same opinion still" | |

Violet all the way. Gett Off's lyrics are more clever, but I think Violet -- both kind of dark and sexy -- has a funkier feel. [Edited 3/10/07 10:13am] Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

TI only discovered Violet The Organ Grinder last year. The video is pretty good, but I like Gett Off. "Old man's gotta be the old man. Fish has got to be the fish." | |

Violet but I love me some GETT OFF 2.
I live on the organ A master piece | |

Violet sounds kinda of nasty and funky from the lyrics. Gett Off I hear before. But, Violet just gets to me. I have to go with Violet. | |

Yep, Violet for me too.
Way darker, sexier and angrier. A real "look what you're missing" song to an ex-love so a little warped (which i like!). "Playing hard to get is getting hard to play". | |

Violet's never done it for me at all. Gett Off isn't one of my favourites, but it's good fun. Violet just sounds like it was cobbled together in a few minutes. | |
