iPOD RAVES: PT1

I WAS LISS'NIN' TO MY IPOD LAST NIGHT BEFORE I SLEPT.I SCROLLED AND CLICKED TO THE "LET'S WORK EXTENDED MIX".I WAS HEARING SOUNDS IN THIS SONG I HAD NEVER HEARD BEFORE.I HAVE ALWAYS CONSIDERED THIS ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS.BUT IT WAS REBIRTHED IN ME HEAD LAST NIGHT.

I HAVE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER RECORDED.IT HAS FUNK IN RUBBERY BASS DIALOGUE,THERE ARE POLYRHYTHMIC FINGER SNAPS AND CLAPS,MULTI-TRACK HARMONIZING,RAW GUITAR SQUEALS,FUNKY RHYTHM GUITAR CHICKEN GREASE...OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD ENERGETIC DRUM PLAYING AND LEAD VOCALS.THIS SONG IS SO FAR AHEAD OF ITS TIME.PRINCE WAS SOO MONEY!!THIS IS RAW GENIUS!!THERE IS NOT MUCH THERE AND IT'S SIMPLE,BUT THAT MAKES IT SOO THERE!!HE KNOWS EXACTLY WAHT TO DO.SO MUCH PERSONALITY IN THIS SONG!!SO MUCH!!IT SCREAMS TO BE PAID ATTENTION TO.THIS SONG CAN NEVER DIE OR BE FORGOTTEN.

EVERY SINGLE ELEMENT OF SOUND ON THIS RECORD IS SOMETHING ONLY ITS CREATOR CAN DO.EVERY ELEMENT HAS ITS OWN QUIRK AND PERSONALITY.EVERY LISTEN YOU CAN FOCUS ON ONE OR THE OTHER AND LEARN SOMETHING.AMAZING!!FOLLOW THE BASS ON ONE LISTEN..REWIND..FOLLOW THE DRUMS..BACKGROUND VOCALS AND /OR SOUNDS,ETC.!!OH,MY!!

THEN IN THE MIDDLE SEX-SHUN HE ADDS A BIT OF RAW BRAVADO AND FUN WHEN HE SAMPLES "CONTROVERSY" AND LET'S YOU HEAR THE RAUCOUS APPLAUSE HE WAS GETTING THEN,INCREDIBLE!!

"LET'S WORK(EXTENDED)" COULD HAVE BEEN RELEASED AS ONE WHOLE SIDE OF AN ALBUM BY ITSELF AND DOMINATED.THIS SONG BLOWS THE MIND!I CAN'T EVEN ARTICULATE THE JOY I FEEL WHEN I LISTEN AND HEAR PRINCE'S PLEA FOR MY ATTENTION AND AFFECTION HERE.THIS WAS A KID SAYING,"I'M BAD,I'M A FREAK,CHECK ME OUT...I'M THE BADDEST ALIVE!"JUST LISTEN TO HIS DESPERATE SCREAM..."WORK IT,AWWW"!

What other Prince songs are available on the iPod? I'm wondering whether to get one.

PS, your posts would be so much more readable if you would STOP SCREAMING AT US. wink

Funkmistress, the Ipod does play mp3's, so it'll play whatever you want.
