You can hear Prince's vocals on it and the sound is definately Prince with No Doubt mixed in. Ohh purple joy oh purple bliss oh purple rapture! REAL MUSIC by REAL MUSICIANS - Prince "I kind of wish there was a reason for Prince to make the site crash more" ~~ Ben |

Gwen's vocals are so average now compared to her pre Tragic Kingdom days. The song does not suit No Doubt, but it's a well written song. | |

Hmmm...I remember reading that no one in No Doubt besides Gwen had any involvement with that song. In any case, it definitely has the "sound" of the Rave era to me. Check out The Mountains and the Sea, a Prince podcast by yours truly and my wife. More info at https://www.facebook.com/TMATSPodcast/ | |

Yes,and I heard that Tony the bass player was particularly upset about that since he was a huge Prince fan growing up. Typical Prince, sticking with the woman only. | |

I burnt a groove in my CD playing that song on repeat...Love it. But do you really have to dis prince and praise him in the same sentence? 1 over Jordan...the greatest since | |

i love the intro of the drums on that song then the synthesizer line man, he has such an amazing body of music that it's sad to see him constrict it down to the basics. he's too talented for the lineup he's doing. estelle 81 | |

By fresh i mean it sounds quite new and original compared to 3121, Musicology or PE. All of those play on his earlier music. Not that its a bad thing [Edited 4/23/08 8:24am] Its hard 4 me to say whats right when all i wanna do is wrong | |

The only reason I bought a No Doubt album in the 1st place. | |

Danceable filler at best. No hard feelings. | |

It's not a 'Prince song' you know, it was written by No Doubt.
It was a leftover track from their 'Return of Saturn' album, which Prince then reworked for them. Similar story to what happened with Kate Bush's 'Why Should I Love You' track. | |

I remember when I first listened to Rock steady the album, how much I preferred it to Prince's Rave from a couple of years before, and wished Prince had release something on par/similar to it!!!
