Aint' it tho'?
I love this track. Its everything some of huis harshest critics were asking from him imo. There's a lot of 'space' to it and you can really feel him stretching. I really wish he would do this live. | |

wouldn't associate it too much with funk though... I think it's funky in it's own way. Not bottom heavy Parliament funk but still funk. Like Hendrix Band Of Gypsy's funk groovin. . [Edited 3/14/09 17:07pm] | |

i didn't like it at first but it did grow on me. i like the way it changes tempo. it's time for a new direction / it's time for jazz to die | |

 Yup! I've been lovin Wall Of Berlin!
It's catchy, cute, cheeky and all that tearin up he does on those guitar tracks!! 
The runs where he changes the tempo are awesome and I love how he puts in a nice meaty guitar solo at the end and not just a little teaser one like he does a lot. On Wall Of Berlin he lets it rip!
Can't wait to get this one on the album!! "Hyperactive when I was small, Hyperactive now I'm grown, Hyperactive 'till I'm dead and gone"

Oh yeah, I like too near the end when
the guitar soloing is beginning and in the background he goes: "knock it baby!" "Hyperactive when I was small, Hyperactive now I'm grown, Hyperactive 'till I'm dead and gone"

Always reminds me of Cross Town Traffic. Which is by no means a criticism. | |

I love that it's a song about sexual fantasy/role play. "In my mind I'm in some German town...she said u wanna four-leaf clover in the round?"..."We just met -- or at least we pretend -- it's so fresh knocking down the Wall of Berlin"..."Who u gonna be tonite, baby?"..."Is that the Queen of Sheba or an alien dream?" IMO, this kick-ass track is the perfect balance between dirty mind-ed Prince and JW Prince. LOVE IT!!! | |

Surprised to hear so manycoming out in support of this song!
It does rock! The guitar is rockin on this tune and the tempo changes are solid The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.
Remember there is only one destination and that place is U All of it. Everything. Is U. | |

wouldn't associate it too much with funk though... What is rock about the Wall of Berlin? What because it has a guitar in it? Some of you are hilarious Dance... Let me see you dance | |

It's a fun, upbeat little song...I like it. Prince, in you I found a kindred spirit...Rest In Paradise. | |

I think the drumming is great. Sounds like Blackwell knows a bit about Mitch, which must come in handy these days, if you're playing drums for Prince. | |

Isn't the Berlin Wall reference out dated by about 20 years? | |
