She spoke 2 me is a great song. I remember being one of the few people to go see Girl 6 back in 1996. My theatre in Dunedin New Zealand was nearly deserted and my mate did not like it. I thought the movie was alright, but I remember "She spoke 2 me" and "Don't talk to strangers" and thinking I should buy the soundtrack, but was 2 broke. The movie was a flop.

But the sexy falsetto brings cream to the song and the hornz adds more cream and then his jazzy breakdown, harmony vocals just drown me in the cream of this song. Its just that good.

Did anyone else remember Girl 6? about a phone sex hostess stalked by a crazed caller.

I saw it when it came out.

Yes! the Girl 6 ^ soundtrack revealed The "MasterPiece" extended version of "She Spoke To Me". eye went into cardiac arrest when eye first heard it.. giggle

By the way I just happen to run into Theresa Randle. The chick that starred in "Girl 6 a few years ago. She is just as beautiful in person as on screen & has very beautiful expressive eyes...

eye will ALWAYS think of prince like a "ACT OF GOD"! N another realm. eye mean of all people who might of been aliens or angels.if found out that prince wasn't of this earth, eye would not have been that surprised. R.I.P. prince

One of the things that really appeals to me about this album is that, unlike alot of the stuff he's put out in the last 15-20yrs, the songs it contains aren't any attempt to keep up with the latest musical trends. Because of they way it was put together, there is a timelessness to alot of the tracks. They're just good songs in their own right and haven't been tarted up to appeal to "the kids". I mean, what fleeting pop fad does "She Spoke 2 Me" belong to, or "When the Lights Go Down"?

"Don't hate me cos I'm beautiful"

This album is pretty awesome actually!

The stand outs for me are:

When The Lights Go Down

There Is Lonely

She Spoke 2 Me

The Rest Of My Life

5 Women

I really wish he included the original version of 'Old Friends 4 Sale'.

I have no complaints outside 'My Little Pill'..He should have just erased this. Haha...I don't really consider it a song though. This album is very full and the band is FULL! I dig it, and It's good to know he has performing more songs from this album. It's obvious he was listening to this a lot in 2009 as he played 'When The Light Down' and 'She Spoke 2 Me'. Remarkable tunes that he totally KILLS live!

Very exceptional guitar work buried underneath the mix as well! smile 8.5/10

It's Button Therapy, Baby!

Most of those songs we're written for the movie "I'll Do Anything" starring Nick Nolte. Which was a musical that was scrapped with the stars singing the songs. They also was considered 4 a possible broadway play another aborted project. I heard the scenes were filmed with them singing. But they decided to go in another direction..

Three out of ten doesn't really equal "most", does it?
