Don't say that no man has ever tasted your ice cream Baby, U're the purple star of the night supreme U'll always be a virgin 4 no man deserves your love I only pray that when U dream I'm the one U dream of I pray that when U dream U dream of how we kiss Not with our lips, but with our souls Stop me if I bore U Why is it that I think we'd be so good in bed? Can U hear me? Why do I love U so much? It's so strange, I'm more comfortable around U when I'm naked Can U hear me? I wonder if U have any mercy, don't torture me  | |

Snap said: Only in Australia... and actually "Automatic" was the A-side and "Water" was the b-side. Not that either was written before the other -- I think he just wanted a final chance to get both songs heard commercially, thinking perhaps that "Automatic" would have a wider appeal, or at least be more radio friendly, especially considering that it was edited down to 3:38, but never having heard the edit, I'm not sure if that's 3:38 from the very start, or from somewhere inbetween. "Automatic" is definitely a fan favorite, and is often mentioned by several fans as their favorite song of all Prince tunes. Interestingly enough, Rolling Stone's review of the 1999 album makes no mention of "Automatic" whatsoever. "Automatic" was chosen as one of a handful of 1999 songs to be included in Prince's famous 1st Avenue (Minnesota Dance Theatre benefit) performance in 1983 where he debuted not only Wendy Melvoin but no less than 5 of the 9 songs which would later end up on the Purple Rain album, in addition to "Electric Intercourse" which was later replaced by "The Beautiful Ones." Thanx 4 the history lesson. I love hearing all about stuff like this. I guess they neglect to mention it just cuz of the "nature" of it... I really don't think it'd be suited 4 mainstream radio (unless of course they edited it)... but I don't think it'd work editing. Interesting... so at First Avenue, he had Wendy & Lisa backing him for that song? Now that's a visual 4 ya... especially considering how "Computer Blue" came out with their input. had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |

This and Lady Cab Driver are my 2 favorite songs along with DMSR. Shit nevermind, everyting on this cd is awesome. This has to be one of the best funkiest cds ever..... Prove me wrong!
If you want more proof then listen to a couple of live shows for this tour. "
First I need a picture of your mother, to verify the fact that there's not another one in the universe so supreme!!" |

I don't really know the definition of "funky" the way u guys put it, but at first, it was a funky/bizarre album for me. It was pretty much thanks 2 everything after "(Does Not Compute) Something in the Water" that didn't follow the mold created by the first half of the album. Another case of "he did the unexpected" and caught me off guard. The album is chock full of argueably, his best material in 80's, or even his whole career. But I haven't heard SOTT yet, so I can't be sure if it's really his best until I give that a listen. had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone | |
