When the Lights Go Down!

Wanted to give a little shout about one the best, and one of the most under-rated Prince songs. Its such a cool and sexy song...ranks up there with Adore for me. This song deserves more recognition...I would die to hear this one live!

Great song. It's one of my favorites of the late 90s & early 2000s. As good as Adore? I wouldn't go that far. Still, it's nice groove with good instrumental and vocal performances.

"Love & honesty, peace & harmony"

EyeJester7	It is pretty much an awesome song! Very under-rated! You should check out the way he did in in 'Montreux' back in 2009! One of the best versions, also he did at Club Nokia the same year..He slaughters it on guitar! It's Button Therapy, Baby!

Fonkyman	Blinder. Cheered me up after hearing what he'd done to Old Friends. I'll have some of that live too, cheers.

I was disppointed that he changed Old Friends too, but overall that album is tight. This song tho is above and beyond anything on there. This is one of those Prince songs that I can convince non-believers his genius...like Joy in Repetition and Ballad of Dorothy Parker.
