Something in the water (does not compute) Hi all,
i am new to this forum. I am a massive prince fan having seen him in concert a few times and also owning all his albums and rare bits and bobs. I just wanting so start a debate about how good the song is 'Something in the water (does not compute)! I used to hate this song, but i was playing 1999 a few weeks back and this song came on and i was just like 'wow'. Now i can't get enough of it. It is catchy/experimental and interesting/different and yet strangley appealing. what does everyone else think? | |

Prince use to always use the N word, along with every other bad word in the English language. I saw a video of him on one of his birthdays, he was cussing so much I started to really get turned off! ![]() | |

Are you sure the word he uses is not "player"? he definately says 'y u wanna treat a MAN so baad' but he sounds kinda deranged after with all tht screaming then 'bitch! u think ure special dontcha'..etc. like a creepy psychoboy it's not one of my favourites yet but it's interesting. | |

Talk about mishearing a lyric. But I have to say I like the 'demo' version much better. | |

Infact since I've had my iPod I've discovered Prince songs that I'd not paid that much attention to until they were stuck in my ear. Another one off 1999 is Lady Cab Driver. I wa obsessed with that song last year... Infact I now declare 1999 to be my favourite Prince album and for years I thought it was Sign.. Weird...?? ![]() Shut up already, damn. | |
