I love it.

It's so beautiful when he comes in with that first line. The beginning vocals sound like a lullaby.

I want that song played at my funeral.

Love it! Never gets skipped.

It took a while for it to grow on me...but it did.

cool, is some1 else singing with him the main lyrics, or is it sound effects, or is his voice just that magical? i'm not able to remember other songs where he makes his voice sound quite like this. and one of the best songs for screams -- screaming along to those is a great vocal workout and clears my throat like nothing else. 1 of my favorite songs!

I'll always have love for this song. As a "power ballad", I think it blows away "Purple Rain".

P's guitar solo soars thru this song. Great tune.
