I always thought it was like doing a James Brown, cause JB is always singing to the Martha who is his back up singer.

I think the word "Martha" was once used to mean, mother or Sister. This goes back to Latin and Greek days. So, maybe Prince is really saying, "I gotta jones, momma" . biggrin

This is probably even stupider, but why does Prince say "Sing Ma!" in LOTP???

Martha is like saying mama, and Jones is feeling for you or gotta to have you, loving you.
Jones: meaning I have a 'thing' for you. Or Love 'Jones'
. I hope that helps you out.
