I just picked this cd up 2 days ago. When I first heard this song, immediately I got the feeling that it reminded me of Sly and the Family Stone's "Everyday People" |

They do sound alike. I never put that together. When  go 2 a Prince concert or related event it's all  up in the house but when log onto this site and the miasma of bitchiness is completely overwhelming! | |

It's in the same key as Everyday People (key of G). Strawberry Lake is a lot like Ice Cream Castles to me. It has the same bass and drum pattern |

I heard that too ("Ice Cream Castles", too)... I doubt thought that Jimmy Jam would rip off an obscure mid-90s album cut.
("Toast to the Party Girl" sounds like Coldplay's "Viva la Vida", imho.)

Like a couple of folks have already stated it's more a Sly Stone "Everyday People" type of groove, especially when you consider the fact that Morris is singing the opening lines in a very Larry Graham inspired type of voice. | |

why not? didn't he do it with "I Hate U" for some Mary J Blige song in the 90's or last decade? | |

Wow you're right he did do a song for Mary J. Blige sounding like "I Hate U" . I believe at the same time , Mint Condition . | |

Not to mention the lyrical nod to Sly & TheFS by including the words "Hot fun in the summertime" |
