I Adore this song because it is so happy, and the instruments used are very soul opening. "Play in the Sunshine," is very fun and uplifting. cool

I prefer the live version of this song, but even the studio version is great. I like the subtle little jab at Morris and the Time in it too.

"Aah, pop goes the music
When the big white rabbit begin 2 talk
And the color green will make your best friends leave ya
It will make them do The Walk
But that's Cool
Cuz one day, everyday will be a yellow day
and let's play
"

Yes.

Yellow's a happenin' color
If U're a banana
Countin' the days until U're a prune
But blue's a better color
If U're lookin' 4 a lover
2 show your pretty colors 2

I like this comment. I'll go with this one. smile

I remember being 4 years old and loving the hell out of this tune the first time hearing it. It was one of the most fun and refreshing songs that Prince made in a while. AND IT ROCKED!!!! headbang

Who would've thought of mixing electric guitars, drum machines and synthesized marimbas??!!! eek Man, that was the great thing about Prince's musical imagination: anything was possible and accepted. The music had no boundaries and it still sounds as fresh today as it did 21 years ago. The freakin' nerve of some orgers who felt that this was a weak track and could've been left off the SOTT album.




This performance in the SOTT movie is also one of my favorite scenes. The band was tight, the music was a-rockin'-and-rollin', and the vibe was very much swingin' and energetic. There was an optimistic spirit in this performance in this performance and in the song. It was all in the name of fun, and that's how I feel about this track. thumbs up!
