I believe its the best pop single ever released, there has never been a song before or after that still sounds so fresh and orginal to this day..... And oh my good who could forget the dance remix!!! Man that's the tune right there

I love, "Little Red Corvette."
"I guess I should have known, by the way you parked your car sideways, that it wouldn't last..." has got to be the most classic opening line 2 a great song...as classic as the car itself. cool

Got nothing but love 4 this song. Always have thumbs up!

Before I came here, I came across a bunch of his videos. Completely by accident, I assure you. I wasn't looking for Prince videos.
This was the first video I picked out because I knew it was one of his more famous songs.

I had no idea how much I was gonna like it and I didn't think I'd be this crazy about it dancing jig
The perfect pop song!

And the video's not too shabby either wink
When he dances during that guitar solo, my eyes were glued to the screen. Ain't seen nobody move around like that... except maybe Prince (during the "Baby I'm a Star" performance at the end of the movie).
I've got a little soft spot for this video and no matter what countdown its on VH1Classic, I'll watch, even time my clock as I catch it at the beginning. I look at him in this video and there's almost like this innocence about him. That's probably the last we see any of that. After that video and the others from that session, he's a star wink
had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone

Probably the best lyrics he's ever written.

Little Red Corvette memories from the 02 last year, Tuesday 28 August to be exact - mmmmm - Prince, so near, yet so far, we were on front row, P with his back to us sat at piano, white silk shirt blowing gently, bathed in red spot light, played the most beautiful 'ballad' version of this song that I have ever heard. very moving, we wept! .... anyone else.....?

I've written several threads on songs from P's masterpiece album 1999. And this song is one of them. I definately prefer the long version. Man his "Mayday, Mayday" is off the hook. The prominent bass guitar added to this makes it soooo much more funkier than the album version. Great lyrics, great music, great crossover song. He couldn't And didn't miss with this. Hell, I don't doubt that many Stones fans couldn't get with this.

That song has my favorite guitar lick of all time. (The one that comes right after the first "And the ride..." at 5:06. It makes me wet every damn time - even after 25 years.) And hellz yeah - the bass on the 12". And the scream at 6:30.

I'm a puddle just talking about it. drool

Damn...good ear to pick up on that specific guitar lick. I know exactly where you're talking about. Mind u now, it's not just the guitar but it's also doubled by the bass guitar too.
