Does anyone else here really not like Splash?...

I think it's a very average song that sounds really off key. W&L usually added magic to what they touched but this...

I especially like the fake brit/cockney accent when he sings

"spleesh" instead of splash
"fowen" instead of phone

It does not impress...and it didn't years ago, either.

Is he referring to what I think he's referring to by the term "splash"? Or do I just have a dirty mind? wink

It would be fine filler on an album, wouldn't skip it, but it's not anything special

i love 'Splash'

here's the brit/cockney lyrics..hope u likee! music

I called ya on the dog & bone
Ya knew it was me all along
Ya didn't even say ello
Cause ya dan't need dicky birds ta let me know
All the fings that ya do ta me
You fulfill my every fantasy

Splish - I'm under ya power
Splosh - I could go fa haaahrs
Splash - You could devour me
Splosh - And I'd only want ya mawer

Oh, when ya make purple dove ta me
There's fings I never fort I'd see
I cherish [...]
[...] in every sea
Oh, I love when ya play wiv me
Ask your mum if you could stay wiv me

whip lash - I'm under yer power
whip lash - I could go for haaahrs
whip lash - You could devour me
And I'd only want ya mawer

aaahr love is a rivum
Togever we'll ave so much iced bun

Ya go from room ta room
Leaving traces of ya bags of wheat perfume
If I could I'd aristotle it
Everybody should know the feelin' I get
When I'm in your cool embrace
Yer fish & chips, yer arms, yer pins & pegs yer chevy chase

Johnny Cash - I'm under yer power
Eye lash - I could go for a haaahrs
Quick dash - Ya could devour me
Pat Cash - I'd only want ya mawer
I want ya mawer and mawer and mawer

Pie & mash
Loada trash
Fast cash
Stock market crash
Ogden Nash
Bangers & mash
Frazer nash.

Funny, the first thing that came to mind when I heard these lines:

You go from room to room
Leaving traces of your sweet perfume
If I could I'd bottle it
Everybody should know the feelin' I get
When I'm in your cool embrace


was Splash, a new Prince perfume and body splash.

I gotta say, I love this song!!!! I heard it years ago when he had that one site with "the valut" which had a bunch of songs you could listen to. When that site was taken down I was sad because it meant no more of the song but when I found out it was the "jam of the week" (thanks to person who posted it) I was able to enjoy it again. Though I had to drive to my friend house which took 35 minutes (usually 15 minutes but traffic was nasty) to hear it because my computer wouldn't play it,(super slow).
