after riding around in the car with it on repeat at high volume, the rhythm guitar and bass sound even more ferocious...

now imagine hearing it for the first time in a theatre..

touché my friend, touché

yea it doesn't vary much, but it's funky enough that it doesn't need to. Musicology thought it had the same thing going for it, but it was wrong. and when's the last time he whooped the bass like this in a song. and dont say Time. i don't think i've heard a song of his where the bass was so pronounced and funky. fuck outta here, haterz!

Yes and yes.

As soon as the bass starts.... I'm in. Grabs you rt in the bass grabber heeee.

I havent heard it yet loud on my monitors yet, but sounds damn good in my headphones.

I'm pretty sure Prince dipped his bass in a big vat of squirrel meat before laying down this track.

I read that as "I'm pretty sure Prince dipped his BALLS in a big vat of squirrel meat before laying down this track."

Wow.

I like that even better. You just turned it up a notch.

Two good songs, am I dreaming? Funky but sparse. I guess that's the new thing. You have to admit, today's music is really over produced? Who can out complex each other. Prince reverses.

You else loves the part where P says "sister freak me"?

Having listened to it a few more times, I have become addicted. It may not be revolutionary new and innovative, and it may not be a classic gem like 'If I was your Girlfriend' etc. but it is fresh, funky, fun, infectious, it bops and pops, it is well produced with an incredible base line and groove, the horns are killing it and the vocals are great. What is not to like?!

I will force myself to not play it much more before the album drops. I hope I can battle this addiction.

If the Minneapolis sound rip off "Uptown Funk" can become a hit, this one can also....

Stare is much better but the masses probably will never hear the song.

Exactly KingSausage!

I see Stare and HRL as B-sides. Since there are no more physical singles like the old days, Prince has no way to put out his non album tracks and this is the only way he can do it.

I feel sorry for the masses. Think of how many people only consider Prince as "that weird guy who did Purple Rain" and haven't a clue of his massive catalog . . . of Masterpieces. (sorry, I couldn't resist)

It's okay. Sounds a little 90s dated but its okay. I like the lyrics. Damn yall take this too seriously.

"Stare" is just awful, I hope the album have something better and different to offer..

Everybody jam, 'cause this party's going ham. What great meaningful lyrics. That line is just so deep. I just love that out-of-date Sherman Hemsley beat, mixed with that Nipsey Russell groove.

Clean those ears out ya tonedeaf muthatfockerts. The song is good, certainly better than amusing trifles like Tamborine or Life Could Be So Nice.

This will never be a hit because Prince has contortedly conformed himself to trying to make the shit music that the masses listen to and is failing miserably at it because his talent is too far beyond that.

Most of those that know and appreciate his talent, hear it and are like, "WTF?" While most of those that know and appreciate shit music, hear it and are like, "WTF?"

The only presumed winners are the fence dwellers.
