Love it. Always have.
When spring break is over, I'm gonna teach it to my Junior High Praise Band. We're gonna end the song like this: What if God is one of us? What if God is some of us? What if God is all of us? I think God is all of us! I know God is all of us! I know God is all of us! I know God is all of us! God...is all of us! | |

I like the song.
I'm just another slave on the bus so what do I know. No More Haters on the Internet. |

It's a nice song. | |

The only thing that I find a bit  is changing the word slob to slave.
I know Prince likening himself to a slob is a bit far-fetched but still the use of slave is clunky IMHO but then Prince was in his whole WB dispute when he recorded it I guess...Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. |

Don't hurt me What cha think?
[Edited 3/17/09 20:29pm] absolutely his best cover .i really love the fact that he samples himself(love..thy will be done) in the song | |

I hated how he reused the exact drum programming from "Love Thy Will Be Done".
I actually never liked any covers that he's recorded. Playing them live is cool but I don't see the need to record them. Seems like he does it just for album filler. | |

I love it. The guitar, the Love, Thy Will Be Done drum program, the delivery. His best released cover by far. If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot. | |

my favorite prince cover recording is "honky tonk woman" from the undertaker. it's not the most polished recording in the world, but that's why i like it.  | |

That is a good one Anxiety, love the opening guitar riff and falsetto on the chorus... Just somewhere in the middle,
Not too good and not too bad. |

to be fair, though, i love that whole album. raw and immediate and minimal is how i love hearing him play. | |
