I'd sell my soul for an instrumental version of Lemon Crush That drum programming and these keyboard sounds/samples are so damn hypnotic that i wish I could just drop the vocals and focus on the beat and play it in a loop for 12 hours in a row A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...scography/ |

I guess this is one of the good ones! What are 3 garbage songs that go with it? I like the song myself but plenty of folks have found it weak. It must be good however since the the mighty Trevor likes it. | |

Oooohhh ! Big Chick is all about the "Lemon Crush". Affectionately know in the most hardcore of circles simply as the "Crush". Honestly, the musical idea, production and vocal delivery IMO is cool. What kinda hurts the track is the fact that "Lemon Crush" is the goofiest Prince euphemism ever used. I know what he means but what does he mean? In context of the album it's a Vicki Vale track. Is the "Crush" shes ready for... the drink, Batman's cod piece, the color yellow on the bat symbol ? I just don't know. But one day, I would like to be at a Prince concert and Prince says "Anybody ready for the Crush"? And I'll be like "Yeah, I am ready for that fucking Crush Prince. Been ready for that Crush since 1989." Big Chick "Security Ensuring Thee" [Edited 11/7/13 21:08pm] | |

A wise man once told me "As much as one might be ready for said "Crush". Never sell your soul for it. Just be ready ! Big Chick "Security Ensuring Thee" [Edited 11/7/13 19:24pm] | |

despite the silly lyrics,this is a cool song.No reason to actually make good music, Prince! This is what your fans praise...musical garbage, written in 5 minutes! | |

Damn, it's true that he never played it live, and same goes for Trust, what a waste I SOOOOOOOOOOOOO loved the 1995 live rendition of Vicki Waiting when it was released in 2001, the use of samples was damn BRILLIANT and that song is so sweet A COMPREHENSIVE PRINCE DISCOGRAPHY (work in progress ^^): https://sites.google.com/...scography/ |

I'm of the minority that looooves the batman sdtk. I dug it before I was even a prince fan. I dig and feel every track...and sadly I can even dig arms of orion in a schmaltzy moment. The lyrics r trite, but the melody is ....yes....still schmaltzy...but I can dig it. But yeah...lemon crush...back on topic. I love it...clever, fun..and someone said hypnotic...perfect word. Its got a bit of a swing or swagger too. The bridge(?) part always sends my ears in a rollercoaster looptyloop | |

^ If someone did buy it, would you still enjoy the song without a soul? "Great dancers are not great because of their technique, they are great because of their passion" -- Martha Graham | |

Arms of Orion is on the same album and it's possibly worse than Jughead. | |

See I always thought Lemon Crush ment Bitter Sweet... Like Lemons=Bitter but a Crush=Sweet drink (Strawberry Crush, Orange Crush)
and replace Lemon Crush with Bitter Sweet and the lyrics make sense
Every time I kiss you Bitter Sweet nay I can't resist you Bitter Sweet
PS: I love this song so much and can't belive it's not at the very least been in the sampler set let alone a full performance | |

Alright...Cool. I enjoyed reading your Lemon Crush theory. I agree with the drink but I never took the meaning as Bitter Sweet. Interesting. | |

Yeah it's just how I understand it (obviously I'm not Prince so I wouldn't claim to speak for him) Also he seams to do the same thing in The Steeles song Colour... Where he replaces the word Judge with the word Colour to reflect how in society skin colour is sometimes used as a judge
Colour me angry if you colour me less than I do, Becomes Judge me angry if you judge me less than I do
Just a theory | |

I'd keep my soul thank you. Although, I like the song. 99.9% of everything I say is strictly for my own entertainment |
