Dear Mr. Man..... ...I dig the song....Why do y'all hate on it? I'm still trying to understand how Prince turned 4 words (We tired of y'all) into 3.....He says we got 3 words for ya....Was it a mistake? | |

Playing it right now Don't know what you've read but seems like people dig it - it's mentioned as a fave pretty frequently here & in talking to marginal fans they always point that cut out 'Tis a damn good song (top 5 on the album for me) & I doubt the 3 words thing was a mistake - it's just a Princey thing to do IMO | |

At least he didn't say 'We are tired of you all.'
That would have been 7 words. I like this track. It's in my top 4 or 5 on the album. Seems most orgers like the track. I don't see people out and out hating on it, only some reviewers, who don't like the hackneyed politics. I like the music. | |

Easy going protest song with three words to say:
2. tired 3. o'yall Oh yeah... that's true. Write a letter. ------------------------------------------------

Listen to "What You Dyin' For" by Angie Stone. Their rhythm tracks are twins. | |

Still a funny joke though! | |

When the guy in the holding room at the release party
told us Prince was going to play "Mr. Man" I was excited to see what it would be like live and of course it was smooth and cool and Prince sang it with a whole lotta heart especially that last verse! it was very cool! "Hyperactive when I was small, Hyperactive now I'm grown, Hyperactive 'till I'm dead and gone"
