It's a little gem and a great sketch. A little purple artifact, but the Sheena Easton is a fuller deeper finished track. I absolutely adore her version. Her's is also a "Prince version," because Prince himself produced it and plays all the instruments.

That is clear.

But at the same time I am adult and responsible for my actions myself.

Don`t need certain forum member (Bart) to point me to my mistakes. He is not a moderator after all.

Thank for you kind words anyway smile

The song was written following his break-up with Susannah, so when he sings "My girlfriends bore me," he must mean Sheila E. and Jill Jones. lol

101 is a song almost too personal to even listen to but yet you cannot turn away! It burns with such intensity, hearing Prince sing this song is to hear him slowly go mad as he's literally consumed by obsession....when I had heard Sheena's take I couldn't imagine him singing it, now I have to say I'm on the fence which I love more, really....

Pheromone and Shockadelica too. It was a different electro-funk direction took for too short of a ride.

Loving this more and more. Maybe the closest Prince came to writing a Eurythmics song with the mechanical tension and unquenchable and soulful obsession, though it still is unmistakably Prince.

OMG! This is straight fire. That means HOT, damn it! I'd never heard the other versions so it's new to me, too. And it makes me feel like new Prince music is supposed to make me feel. Happy, grateful, proud and FUNKY. headbang music dancing jig

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

101 sounds great. Main hook sounds familiar but I'm sure i never heard it before. Maybe I did, if it was on the radio in the U.K. I would have been a wee nipper. So. Eye's release is not a concert boot then. Chances of it having 'Wally' in the set?

It could be because it sounds so much like Train from The Dream Factory!! At least, it does to me!!! biggrin biggrin biggrin

So far, to me, this is THE best track out of the new releases!!!

This is insanely good.

On a tangent, I spent 15 minutes trying to persuade my wife this was Prince.

This gives me hope we'll see the Prince original version of Jody Watley's "Still A Thrill" I know it exists. All the denial in the world that Prince didn't write it are bullshit and a half. No way in fuck he didn't write it.

I haven't read through all the responses on this, but I could hear Radiohead performing this song perfectly, as Prince did it. For some reason, I thought of Radiohead's "Lotus Flower". eek

I think Pharell purposely tried to ape Prince on that one. But Still a thrill has a Prince producer, a Prince sound, what sounds like samples from other Prince songs of that era and Wendy herself (supposedly) playing guitar. And then add to the fact that Andre Cymone never wrote ANYTHING anywhere near that brilliant or so blatantly Princely.

Yeah, I'm becoming obsessed with this track. Might be a top 10 outtake for me at this stage.

This is my favourite of all the recent leaks. I hear bits of U Got the Look on Prince's version more than on Sheena's. Also, it resembles So High to me.

That's so funny. Purple Music does that to you but especially the latter.

Well, I certainly hope this gets a proper release. Tracks like this, the originality of them, the creativity is something a larger audience must hear.

You made me check it out... yes there are a lot of timely (as in patterns he was using right at that time) elements in there that sound just like Prince if it was then finished and mixed by another producer. Outside of the tone and presence of the funk guitar chords, I forwarded to the bridge/breakdown and heard that synth bassline pattern that sounds like one of the Madhouse tracks and also one remix of 101.

I love Sheena's version, the 12" especially.
I've always wanted to hear this.
The vocals are a surprise.
Can't believe at last I get to hear it! biggrin
