I like it - the mustang mix is my fave - slow and mellow groove.

And the ornate fold out butterfly CD insert is very cool...

I thought it was a waste of money.I mean,some of the remixes were ok,but was it really worth $12.99? It was priced and treated as if it was a regular full-length album.'TMBGITW' is a nice song,but probably didn't need all those remixes.

Amazing !

how many ways can you redesign a song to sound totally different

great stuff here .
you should be able to pick it up anywhere for $3-$5
Hard to believe I've been on the org for over 25 years now!

The Mustang Mix should've been on the album. I was really feelin' it at the time... nearly caused tears.

Peace.

I bought it when it first came out, and I've listened to it maybe five times over the years. The packaging is pretty damn cool, though.

boring ... listened once and now it's at the bottom of a huge pile of CDs. But then again I hated TMBGITW anyway.

No, no, no! (Or as Francois would say: Non, non, non!) Space is even better.

Universal Love Remix and Funky Stuff Remix and Acoustic Remix are all great. I LOVE 'em! Even better than the remixes of TMBGITW, by far! Superior! Yes, they are! biggrin

It rocks! I use the Mustang Mix, and the Universal Love Remix of Space to introduce Prince to the Hip-Hop generation.

Co-sign. I like the regular 4 1/2 minute mix or the TGE mix only.Listening to all those variations on the same song is pretty dull.

I like it more for the way the sleeve opens up into a butterfly.

The best version of the song is not on that EP. Seek out the Euro "Get Wild" maxi for "Beautiful Girl". Eric Leeds soloing the melody and vocalizing with the sax. Very cool.

It's a really nice package. The buttefly fold-out it nice, and the mixes are decent. The instrumental Mustang Mix with mayte chatting is one of my favorites.
