I always thought the end part was similar to the song Bob George, the way he 'man handles' the woman

I agree, I think it's the better version out of all of the others that's been released. It's just amazing that Prince has not decided 2 finally release his version. The Jamie Starr appearance is classic! I think Prince recorded his version 4 The Time. That who's it was intended 4, if I can recall.
