The Continental appreciation thread!!

Damn listening to this song very loudly and wondering why it wasn't released as a single!!! This had top 10 hit written all over it!!! Who agrees???

Great song, yes. But it's not a good single choice imo. I don't think it would've done any better than what Sexy MF and My Name Is Prince did in the US.

Not sure about a single release, but the song is ok. Good album too.

I was 14 at the time and it was my fave cut from the album. So yeah, maybe.

Actually, wasn't this song mentioned as a single on the sticker that came with the album?

I ADORE IT! and whole album too

idk, why people don't like Prince's rap. It's very cool. The Max, The Flow, Sexy Mf and My Name Is Prince are cool too.

So evil girl, if one of us has a date,
With the undertaker, which one will it be?

It might be my favorite song off the album. I loved it. I wanted it to be a single, and I wanted a cool extended version.
