"She said, 'Well maybe I do......just not like I did before.'

Gets me everytime.

i don't know, kind of silly, kind of goofy. can't bop with it. maybe hearing an actual good quality version will change my mind.

I guess this would have also have had to happen to you to really get the feels.... This line seems to be a trigger for me. I think him going up to a "girl" register makes it all the more poignant to me. Cause he's trying to be mocking her but he's clearly soooo hurt.

The desperation in the build from "What am I going to do? She was the only one in the whole world that I could talk to..." "Wally, where'd you get those glasses? Those are the freakiest glasses I've ever seen" is heartbreaking.

A good example of what Prince was. Kind of silly and over the top but such raw emotion.

That's painful actually, I mean the whole song, a masterpiece to me.

I see nothing silly or over the top here.
