The arrangement is very busy and dense, but crazy enough for me to appreciate it. I like the track very much.

I agree about the 'dense' production.

I like the song lot, I just think the instrumentation is 'too noisey.' Too many things going on.

I wish it had gone with a more stripped down band sound. The Gospel vocals would have been enough to elevate the song with just bass, drums, piano, organ, maybe a guitar, and a tambourine of course.

Really typical 90s Prince recording: Some loud drum machine that isn't a Linndrum, an abstract bass line that defies belonging to a musical key, lots of sound effects, stupid title.

So yeah, that's a nay.

that phasing on the snare and fills is absurd! feels like getting a second wind at 5am, dizzy and focussed

also, you can always dial up F-R-double-E off of Sacrifice of Praise by Victor and Free, which kinda fits (cheer S Potify)

Wow. I have always had a strong dislike for The Flow and Arrogance, but i've always stayed quiet about Sweet Baby.... That song got skipped so much when the album came out... I've never liked it and I never will. Not sure why, it's just so insipid. Glad it's not just me smile

blah blah blah
