It's a good, compact slice of funk. The guitar solo is a nice break from the Purple norm. I hope it's on one of the new albums.

And ya'll fools had me thinking it was the worst thing since Chaos and Disorder.

I liked this song alot. I was just starting it like 'ho hum....they said it wasnt that great..' And when he got to that line about throwing the sheets on the floor.. "when it rains it pours!" I damn near flipped my wig. I was like

".....[b]Wintess my ass..more like a Witness 4 the prosecution"[b]

The sing is good. I enjoy it more than 4ever Colonized Mind and Crimson and Clover (the latter being the best of the bunch from the Lotus previews so far to me not counting the Mplsound previews).

Can we talk about it from a late bloomer here.

Check this thread, pretty much sums it up.

I have not heard the studio version, but the live version is in my opinion its a lot better song than the crap whats being released these days yes he could probably do better but what has he left to prove, nothing some people dig the song others wont.

Turn Me Loose Is So Bad Prince Should Retire

Leave the weak James Brown rehashes to the bar bands, dude. You used to be capable of so much better than this. Will you ever again focus on songwriting?
Prince used to be Sexy MF, now he should be called Lazy MF. Dude, is way too overconfident these days.

it is pretty terrible.
i sat by the computer and listened to that LA station and kept missing it.
i finally tracked it down 'somewhere'.
and i stopped listening about halfway thru.
it is just so repetitive and boring.

Prince "Turn Me Loose" Lyrics


you don't really know me you just think you do
it's against the law in 13 states what i'm gonna do to you

oh baby you got to Turn Me Loose
if you really love me you got to give me what i need
or get your stuff and get cuz i'll just make you bleed

the board behind your head, about to split in two
whatever's holding up this bed'll be here when I'm through
oh baby you got to Turn Me Loose
if you like these blankets you better throw them on the floor
the weather girl's a friend of mine, cuz when it rains it pours

oh baby you got to Turn Me Loose
turn me loose now..

you don't understand, I don't do this nightly
but if I get it once you'll want me to, more than likely

oh baby you got to Turn Me Loose
i'm much too hard to handle, we could never be more than friends
speaking of which you need to leap out of bed, and never come back again

oh baby you got to Turn Me Loose
Renato, speak brother

it seemed to happen when Musicology came out..all of a sudden there were a mass of people that hated everything Prince touched.

Didn't that start with Controversy?

Sometime I am suprised that Prince even still makes music with all the negativity on here. I wonder what it was like before the haters started coming on the org. it seemed to happen when Musicology came out..all of a sudden there were a mass of people that hated everything Prince touched.

The haters were here back in 1999 when I joined.

Really? Maybe I just wasnt on the forums enough.

They were around. It wasn't like it is now where it feels like a war could break out at any moment but there are a couple of people here from that time who still complain regularly. 10 years of that shit.
