If you can get past the over-the-top theatrics, it is still one hell of a track! Lots of great composition and musical changes (even if it is all a bit Broadway) and is superbly recorded and played. Prince's razor-sharp guitar and Bland's drum freakout are particular highlights for me smile

...we have only scratched the surface of what the mind can do...

Remember the Ryde Divine tv special where he combined I Wanna Melt With U and 3 Chains of Gold? That was awesome!

ernestsewell	It's a great song, very much in the vein of "Bohemian Rhapsody", etc.

My favorite part...

"U say U'll call me and then U don't
'll want 2 kiss U and then won't
We both do nothing and call it love
Is this love? Is this love?

Simply beautiful and the falsetto is perfection!

When go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all up in the house but when log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming!

It's a fantastic song. Michael B. said they cut it in one take.

it's time for a new direction / it's time for jazz to die

I have been listening to this cd too lately. It's planted in my car. I love the entire cd. It is surely one of the best.

Did you not get enough answers on this thread, so you started this one with the exact same statement? http://prince.org/msg/7/324469

Fished out the Comic yesterday to read on the way to work which I have always liked but....

3 Chains O Gold - WTF was Prince thinking!????!???!?!?!!

Is this the true story of How he met Mayte?
Are the orgininal NPG testing out for The A-Team?
And Most importantly was this ever Filmed?

Tsk tsk. You must be more original than to have two names.
