Am I the only one here diggin "What do U want me 2 do"?

I got up on a copy of this song at one of our monthy Detroit Crawl Housequakes, and I haven't stopped playing it! The lyrics are kinda simple, but the instrumentaion and the production are excellent. Very retro 80s Prince. Those who have it or have heard it from NPGMC a few months back, what are your thoughts?

it's not terrible...and coming from me, that's saying a lot...
still nothing I'd rush out and get...or even bother getting, for that matter...
very repetitive too...and, I don't care what anyone says...there is no joy in repetition...

He should release this as a lead off single instead of "Musicology"
What do U want me 2 do is more radio friendly. Musicology is in the same vein of The Work, a James Brown workout, and radio ain't gonna play that. Most R&B stations will give What Do U want me 2 do some play.

I posted a couple of weeks back that I played this at a happy hour I was spinning at, and the audience response was amazing. Everyone was asking for a copy.

Is it still available on the NPGMC?
