My least favorite track on velvet rope along with together again(lp version)
and it has nothing to do with the lyrics or theme of the song.
Free Xone was just a weird sounding track.

This funk is a serious joint

the song hasn't aged well (it sounded dated when it came out), but it is a guilty pleasure...lol...

I don't like the spoken word parts confused It should be a 10 minute instrumental cool
