Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad

am I the only 1 who thinks this is 1 of Prince's more underrated songs? Im a big Prince fan, but I was born the same year this song came out so I couldnt really appreciate it at the time. lol But after watching the video for this song and listening to the Prince LP, this song is GREAT! The guitars are so mean.

I love it. I think it's mostly only underrated though by some of the newer/younger fans.

The album version is great, but I think the version from early on (on the Dirty Mind and Controversy eras) is best. Where he breaks it down, yells "BITCH!" then goes into an extended vamp. The Houston 1981 video is a great one.

Great song...great falsetto throughout, especially on the line "I CRRYYYY when we're apart." One of my fave tunes, definitely!

I freaking love this song! I have no idea why Prince won't sing it anymore, at all. Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think he sang it since being with the original band right?
