1. How do you feel it holds up after 25 + years?

2. Which version should I get? And do NOT give me that video version nonsense. The studio version is the one I wan't in some way or another and the one I personally think is superior. I like to dance, and this is my shit, for real!

1. It holds up fantastically IMO, great electrofunk tune with a massive beat and a fantastic sax solo by Eric Leeds. What's not to love?

2. I think the album version is the best mix personally.

I read this in another, older thread. Should I get the extended version? Is it killer. Haven't heard it.

It holds up really well, in my opinion and it made me dig out the Extended version which is even funkier.

How does it hold up? Put it this way - it's in my top 10 most played Prince songs, and pretty fucking high up. It's killer, it always has been and it always will be. Absolutely genius.

The album version, is the best version.

definitely get the extended version. why is that even a question!

I expressed myself a bit wrong. What I meant was, is it really an essential experience compared to the album version? Is it a must have or am I doing alright with the one I've got?

never really liked it

I like this song,but to be honest,I don't think that the lyrics are that great

the lyrics seem too simple for a Prince song...

hot thing....baby U dance so good

hot thing...looking for big fun

I prefer "It"

I still like it

Still kicks ass. And I still love "It" too.

I think some people would not like it now as they'd prefer their precision-designed electro-funk, nine inch nails kind of thing. I think it holds up really well because the ever so slightly low-tech-ness of it is what makes it great. Album version for me.

It's one of the songs that make the sampler set seem like not such a bad idea.

Great song. So ahead of its time. Still sounds contemporary almost 30 years after it was released.

I remember when he released the video of the sampler version from the show in Sweden. As soon as that beat came in, I remember thinking how the song still kicks ass after 25 years. Perhaps it's the simplicity of the song but it sounds just as good today.

that is a nice take on the song though, that sampler version from sweden.

he was really feeling it that night.
