HOT THING I was listening to the extended version of this yesterday and thought does this sound dated (20 years old) or could it be a hit today? | |

Yes it was a hit 20 years ago, probably could be a hit today, Prince's music is timeless that's why we can still go back and listen to it! | |

The original radio edit was widely played on the radio down south. And the remix and the original versions was played in the clubs. So while it was not a chrt hit per se it waas an underground hit. |

it hit the charts. that's the definition of a "hit" and the fact that it got as high as it did, solely as a b-side, says a lot about its popularity (and more about its potential) at the time. "Half of what I say is meaningless; but I say it so that the other half may reach you." - Kahlil Gibran | |

Most of Prince's music is "timeless", but considering all he has recorded, there is bound to be some stuff that sounds dated. | |

Thanks folks for your response but my point is does the song sound dated or could it sound like it was recorded recently? For me, I love the oriental- sounding synths and hard groove but I suppose the Linn drum gives the game away. | |
