If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.

Lolita dancing jig

I mean, it sounds a little like studio plastic and it's better live like many of the 3121 tracks... but "Baby Knows," I don't get into very much... Sheryl Crow had a little too much influence razz
my favorite part is when he says "and perfume... smell like the weekend..." just his voice gets a smile out of me... but other than that, I'm not too crazy about it.
The chorus's lyrics are WEAK giggle not that "Lolita" is one to talk in that area either.

If I fit the bill, id be a helluva Lolita cool
had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone

Not a real fan of either.

I always hated BK on the CD but live was ok.
Lolita on CD is good but live nah.
I just can't believe all the things people say !

Lolita sounds like a Time reject from back in the day.

Baby Knows... hmmm, I like the harmonica but that's the only good thing I can bring myself to say about that track.

Like both, but love Lolita. It's great fun.
And like the way he reclaimed ownership of the 'fellas n girls' thing he started years ago (from Justin 'every thing I do sounds like a rehash of something else' Timberlake).
Lolita wins for me.

Lolita

If U were mine we bump, bump, bump



Baby Knows sucks...he sounds like a old white lady...the whole album sucks...my boy (who really doesn't know much about Prince) was looking at the disc and said "This album isn't that good is it?" I asked him why? He said "Just looking at the cover it looks bad." He was correct...the album, the packaging and Larry G. all up in the mix was bad....

I need u to shake Ur lil' ass n hips
I need u to grind like Ur working for tips
And give me what I need while we listen to PRINCE"
