Absolutely love this song it has a vibe which only he can do,your views?

I love this song...but mostly because it has the kind of subtly clever lyrics that have become too rare with him of late. The way he goes from "I just don't want you here" to "I just want you here" without any fanfare is brilliant.

Nobody does "I'm afraid to fall in love" better than he.

to both of ya!

It's one of those light Prince ones that is really good, and not very commercial. I think he has fun making these songs.

Nice feel to the song-I like it

Good song, and it's nice that it's just that, not a Prince-mythology-specific type song. It's a normal song that happens to sound like classic prince.

One of those great Prince album cuts that doesnt get appreciated as his album cuts once were amidst all the negativity that is thrust at him today.

Yeah, its the only slow song on Mplsound I like actually..he could have put something like Adonis or Get Blue on here for the rest to fill in.

I love this song on long drives. It's great.

I love Here. The song, sound, sentiment; its all good.

Yeah, it's a highlight of the album for me

It was a grower for me but I really dig it now. There was just so much to listen too @ 1st I really never gave it much attention right away.

One of the very few songs I have put on repeat for many years. Love it. It has that feel of an old prince song. It could easily belong to the pre name change canon. Love it. Listening to it right now.

Thanks guys for your views, great to hear that you dig it as much as I do. It really does remind me of why I got heavily into him.

agreed...it's beautiful / strange

sad yet loving at the same time

almost like a lover that can't take it n e more,

but cannot separate himself

Great track.

MPLSound has some of the best tracks Prince has penned in over a decade.

beautiful classic piece a real gem( one of my best)

too emotional for me. and sad..but loving from his heart..

He means of all the songs that have been released in many years now, this is one of the few he listened to on repeat. I think.

One of very few songs not in my heavy rotation. Just Because.

it reminds me of the chocolate invasion version of "the dance"
and also a bit of "goodbye". i like it. it's a cool tune.

Used to have this one on heavy rotation; not so much anymore, the subject matter being no longer relevant after being extremely relevant for some time.

If you catch my drift.

Like it a lot

I agree with what most said about here. It has that special 'yearning crescendo' sound in the melody/vocals at points. Like a more upbeat Beautiful Ones so to speak.

The slow songs are the only songs i like on MPLsound..'Ur'e Gonna C Me, 'Here' and 'Better With Time'..i definitely get a vintage Prince feel from both Here and U're Gonna C Me..."if you could just hold me tight you'd see, darlin, there's nothing, there's nothing harder for you then me"..sounds like something he would've said back in 82

Yep that's what I meant. Consistently poor grades in grammar.

Okay. I read that and thought..."Is there another version I don't have?"

I love "Here".....

Classic? hmmm maybe....
