Baby, U're A Trip And A 1/2 But I Don't Care

I'm so in love with this piece right here!!!

Baby, U're an ocean that's 2 wide 2 cross
Baby, U're the cross that's 2 deep 2 bear
Baby, U're the star that's 2 far away
Baby, U're a trip and a half, but I don't care


The lyrics are just 2 much 4 me, actualy in that period Prince was at his best when it came down 2 his writing skills. I didn't hear Jill's version, altho I like the woman I don't think she would do it justice. However, I heard that her version was produced betta since Clare Fisher & the horns section are included.

One thang 4 sho, Harlepolis will neva get through her wedding without this song nod

The music in the begining is also used as an incidental score in Under The Cherry Moon.

Slightly irritating, yes. But she sure knows how to belt out a vocal.

I just listened to Jill's verson of this in my car last night. I have had this for awhile now. I really like this song, but I liked the first time I heard it from Prince.

That song along with G-SPOT, I really got hooked on for along time.

Interestingly, Prince's backing vocal is fairly audible on 'For Love', particularly on the 12-inch version.

Yes, that 12-inch version is a must!
