Yeah. Original.
Lotta people seemed to slag this off at the time, hence the remix in a diff vein. But I always loved the original more than the remix.

Original by a mile, vocally at least.

You know how you have those moments in certain Prince songs that are so perfect that they just make the hairs on the back of you neck tingle, and make you stop, smile and think: "damn, it moments like this that keep me coming back!"

His vocals at 0:45 into the original is one of those moments for me: "I need to get out of this city, I need to get you outta my head" - Sheer perfection - just magical.

Another of those 'moments' I just heard a few minutes ago. 0:30 into Digital Garden when that sweet smooth percussion glides in, that always sweeps me into a sweet trance, all the way up to and including the first 2 lines of vocal perfection "Love like the rose in bloom, all of the rainbow children feel it soon(?)" Chills.

I guess I don't know the remix, "Man 'o' war" is a nice song.

Do u think that 3121 is still in the shade becuz Prince is deconstructing the Digital Garden? Or becuz when it comes back on wer'e gonna see a really smashing picture of him? U guys know I mean that in a good way... cool
