I Wonder U

Um... I'm not even sure what the point of this thread is, but "I Wonder U" has to be one of my Top 5 all time fave Prince songs. (Even though it's less than 3 mins. and his voice, strangely, isn't even heard on it).

I guess I just wanted to see you guys' (and gals') thoughts on this eccentric little gem. Part of me would LOVE to come across a long-hidden extended version of it. On the other hand, I've considered that maybe its appeal is the fact it's such a fleeting, quick pleasure. (Kinda like the 3-second rush you get from being winked at by some beautiful stranger you've been admiring from afar).

I wish so bad that the song was longer. It caught my attention when I first heard cause its cool.

This song should be much more realized than it was. Maybe it's one of the reasons Prince was eventually disappointed with the Parade album. But I still LOVE it.

'Tis niiice.
