One of my faves. Prince's "Uptown" is a direct bite from this song, musically. Even though the bassline was Andre's, which also is damn near the same line in the Stones song, after P put the guitars on, especially during the verses,...man!



Also, Joan Osborn's "Safety in numbers",is in the same melody as "Miss you", They sound exactly alike.

I think both songs are among the best stuff that Prince and the Stones have done.... I just tried listening to both songs back-to-back... omfg I can definately hear the influence now.... Funny thing though, everytime I hear that "What's up little girl?" part in Uptown it reminds me of Mick Jagger for some reason... now I know why biggrin

There it is!
