Look no further than the 1999 album cool

That's one of my favorite features of 1999, Little Red Corvette and Automatic. It also MAKES the song "Something in the Water (Does not Compute)."
That's one of those things Prince became infamous for, minimalistic tracks with Linn-drum that work perfectly.

had 2 run away... pride was 2 strong. It started raining, baby, the birds were gone

bigbrother	I was thinking 'Girl' or 'If I was Your Girlfriend', although I'm not entirely sure if they used the Linn. Also, 'SOTT' has a beat that is in my veins it's so funky!
