I always felt they wrote wise in terms of Prince, realing nailing down his Psyche...Hide the Bone really speaks as to who Prince is...I thought great lyrics in terms of Prince singing something honest about himself....control freak issues to the fore....

I see the song more full of sexual metaphores...but I have a dirty mind! biggrin

Definitely agree - that guitar is sooooo funky as is the George Clinton style refrain. Too funky... I can't stand myself!!! Hit me in the back, ya'll!

man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81
