It does put me in mind of Good Golly, Miss Molly, but only for the nostalga. Many Motown legends have at the very least 1 foot stomping, hand clapping, booty pooping tone that sends us back to simpler times

I talked to my son Jesse 2 day..I told Jesse and his girlfriend that Prince's new album has a lot of different styles...I said even a sliver of punk in this song called,... "No more Candy 4 U." Jesse said in his all knowing seventeen attitude with hair hanging over his left eye, ..."Prince don't know Punk." I said, Prince knows it he just doesn't do it." cool

"Tick, Tick, Bang '81"!

I LOVE that he dusted off the rockabilly and really goes for it with the screaming, hyper and egocentric ranting and utter outrageousness. I'm giddy every time I hear it.

What an awesome record!

There's more life and energy in this than anything on insipid safe albums like 3121 and Musicology.

How can anybody keep still to this song? Seriously? Whenever I hear it I want to dance like a madman!

Bass line is straight from Delirious, overall feeling is Jack u off / Horny Toad, basically one of his litte rockabilly ditties, slightly edgier though. It's been a long time since he did anything like it.

It sounds like any of his early 80's rockabilly type songs, like "Horny Toad", "Delirious", "Ronnie Talk 2 Russia", "Jack U Off", etc etc.
