A nectar sweet groove that no one but Prince could vocalize on top of. I luv it.

A painting of Dido Elizabeth Belle and her sister is up as the artwork for this week's Purple Pick Of The Week on Tidal.


Interesting choice of a painting. Any idea how it relates to the Look at me, look at u? I can see it possibly relating to Revelation.




Read the lyrics again.

Doh! Thanks lol

This might be my favorite song on the album. It's fantastic.

Love the warm, jazzy TRC vibe on this. Wish P would do a TRC-style album again.

I think she has half-siblings from her father's side and in this picture,it's her cousin or second-cousin.

Anyways this is a transcendent ballad. I can imagine him performing it live and us ladies (and some fanboys) swooning over this cloud9
Also it's nice he gave a little shout out to Ray charles and Stevie wonder cool

Thanks! I guessed sister. Prince was giving the film a shout out at first and I really do want to see it cuz I love period pieces.
What?

THIS is why all these songs deserve a second (or eighth) listen. I love it! I miss nasty Prince.

It's all that I can do
Not to feel myself when I
Look at U

Look at me Tell me what U see The back and forth of an earthquake Goes strong and sturdy tree I ask myself this question, but it's still a mystery How I'm gonna keep my balance when I Look at U How can U not know Standing over there like a Nefertiti, or the queen, Dido Please don't think too ill of me It's all that I can do Not to feel myself when I Look at U Modesty aside, whoever made U should be praised. Yes! Ain't no need to hide Every glass should be raised Brandy or martini Kudos overdue What else is there really when I Look at U? Fight it, yes, my soul has tried When U look at me All other women just roll their eyes But even Ray Charles can see U Stevie Wonder can too Thoughts well up and wonder Thinking about me and U A dozen fantasies U Call me won and done When U look at me Look at U, look at me .

Great lyrics, the Ray Charles and Stevie bit makes me smile every time. I'm hitting repeat on this, love it.

Probably my favourite song on the album.

This track is cream-of-the-crop Prince. Better than anything on Phase 1 (including 1000 Xs and Os) in my book, better than anything from AOA or Plectrum, too. Might be my favorite Prince track in a decade or more. So effortless and smooth, no pretentous lyrics or overthinking.

10/10 from me.

This song is phenomenal. Also, I can't spell phenomenal.

Totally agree with this. It's well on the way to being one my favourite P songs.

I don't think I've ever hit repeat on a song as much as this, we need an extended version.
