People expect to much from Prince. 20 tears ago EVERYONE would have loved this song. Now, it seems everyone want's to be a critic. This is just Prince having some fun. It's not meant to be the next number one single! Just enjoy it for what it is, a cool rock workout. U might not like the taste, but I'm still going to stick your face in this Funk | |

This song is weak. Sounds like a far lesser version of "Horny Toad". And, frankly, "Horny Toad" isn't exactly amongst Prince's strongest songs. the music knows what your motives are when you are making it
listen to The Replacements - its good for the soul | |

Again, why when someone has a dig at their beloved Prince, do fams instantly turn abusive and insulting? People are allowed to have their opinions, good and bad. People are allowed to take the piss. If you don't agree or dislike something, either don't respond or state your opinion, don't get insulting. I never say anything on here that I wouldn't be brave enough to say to somebodys face.

amen! 
come on, it's not that bad, what did you expect? it's an ok song, like "turn me loose" was, maybe not an advance of anything (as far as we know), just a single song that P just wanted to put out there. | |

The lyrics i won't even bother going into to. Great guitar solo but thats about it. He's using that cheesy, overproduced keyboard line again that makes the song sound cartoonish. Nothing really memorable here. I agree with the b-side comments. |

Hummmmm.....where 2 start.
1.Prince edited this song into a COMA. 2.The religious handcuffs really is strangling Prince in his lyrical content. 3.Based on the arrangement of this mix, there appears 2 be about 7 to 10 minutes of the actual song missing. | |

So is the song supposed to be released on lotusflow3r.com today? "All that glitters ain't gold" | |

mannix59 said: futurebaybeemama said: Love that song!  The fantastic thing about Prince is we all follow him 4 a variety of reasons. I've never hailed his work as being the ultimate exponent of lyrical/musical perfection. He intrigued me through essence and diversity. His work simply represents one mans expression. His music inspired me to explore my own creativity. He is but an artist on a journey. Conveying his experience 4 those that wish 2 listen. Not everybody is going 2 "Get It"..... Artists create. sometimes our choice of language is obscured by our own personal bias/restrictions. We learn, we evolve. Prince had his moment of Global sync. Maybe there is still part of him that Loves his fans approval/validation. However, I think sometimes his own creative needs come first No matter the cost.  "Cause and Effect" is where Prince is right now on his amazing journey.   He doesn't have to prove anything to anyone. Prince only has to be who He is for God. "God's intellect" that what I say. | |
