overall it's a pretty good song i think, i just felt that the "motherfu**ers" in there were not a good choice. it sounded like he felt he HAD to swear to make it more... um, "contemporary"? thought the lyrics were trying too hard to be shocking with the profane language. (hey! i swear! look at me! i'm cutting edge!!) smile otherwise it's a good song i think.

This is such an oddity of a song. It is soulful, melodic and quite soothing. And suddenly, when the lyrics come on, the incongrous profanity hits you like a ton of bricks. Hah! I'm sure it was meant to be some sort of joke, like an iron fist in a velvet glove.

I like the video even more. The scarf over the face thing was fun, Mayte was all ghettoed out, neat video clips too.

I don't love it, but I rarely skip it so that must mean something. Then again, I only have it on Girl 6 & how often do I really spin that?? lol Gotta love a chorus where the word "motherfucker" is emphasized like never before... wink
heart prince I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it prince heart

Damn, there´s a video of that song?! Never heard about.. Would like to see more from that Exodus thing anyway.. Tora Tora with his scarf was pretty cool/odd... headbang

by the way, I think the whole album got pretty much of dirty language, so why would "Mutherfu·$" be strange in that song? when the rest of the album is full of shitty today-never-spoken-language-of-prince..

Don't Love It. Not one bit.
