Who else wishes I Wonder U was longer?

I know I do. I love that song so much but it's so tiny. Oh Prince why must you tease me?

The first three tracks on Parade should've been a bit longer. And Girls & Boys shortened (not crazy about this song).

Maybe an 8-measure breakdown for the drums, with the bass boosted and the string treatment -- but not a second more.

No way!

It's one of Prince's most perfect songs.

Thanx for the thread, LifeCan. It made me think :d Remember what "the whole of the moon" (i.e. Prince!) said, that his musical creations are his kids? Well, in the state of paternity, we often think that a child is great just the way he/she is. Don't matter what height biggrin Keep the Faith!

I wish the whole album was longer!. It's a pitty that the old records could only hold around 45mins, just think how much more might have been released if CDs were around back in the day!

Was the 'Parade' album ever intended as a 2-record set,or was that just a rumor?
