Can we just talk about how I have overlooked this song for the last however many years?? It is ridiculous and I love it. Between "I smell myself" and "Hello?...Who is it?", and the thought of buying more hair for himself, this is clearly the most hlarious track ever (or at least on Rave). Just putting it out there.. How did I miss this for so long??

Thoughts?

You overlooked it by never knowing it was there or just never appreciated it and never played it? If so I am guilty to but Prince has so many dman songs its hard to play them all.

To me it seemed initially like another James Brown steeze songs that he is so fond of emulating (he was once onstage with him too!).

The difference with this rave up is it seems like he is singing this one while dressed up as that Lovesexy tourbook get up.

when my son was born id sing that song to him, adlib'd of course, when hed bathe.

Just never really paid attention to the end of Rave. I never liked it much I suppose and well now I'm just stupid. Most of the album is actually better than I remembered!

I agree, I love the version on Rave In2:

The extended 5:35... wow!

Maybe best song together with Beautiful Strange.

I rarely play it as well. hell I rarely play anything because I just put my ipod on shuffle. But I do think its a nice enough release as a whole. ILYBDTYA is worth the whole cd imo. And now Im feenin' to hear UNDISPUTED
