Makes me feel happy and sad at the same time.
One of the earliest songs in my memory. Wow, yeah, that is an 80s classic and I ain't scurred to say it. | |

Joe Jackson is one of the greatest Artists of the last 25 years. Always taking the chance, doing swing, before it was a "cool trend", doing Jazz and getting it on the radio (shows why the 80's kicked ass), did rock, did classical instrumental albums, did soundtracks, and now once again back with his band doing well written pop/rock songs "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |

Great song.
This song transends the eighties, Its soulfull, its blues, its smooth jazz, its new wave, I always have a hard time putting it into any category. Has aged very well. | |

Truly one of the best albums of the 80s  "We may deify or demonize them but not ignore them. And we call them genius, because they are the people who change the world." |

This and the Motel's "Suddenly, Last Summer", have the two most haunting melodies, that I have ever heard. "Love is like peeing in your pants, everyone sees it but only you feel its warmth" |

Very True! Its amazing how much the 80's is made fun of, but really had the most original thoughts and so much going on. "We went where our music was appreciated, and that was everywhere but the USA, we knew we had fans, but there is only so much of the world you can play at once" Magne F | |

I love this song. My mom had this album and I remember seeing mom sing along to this song a lot. This song has a lot of good memories for me and it's just a great song period. I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that | |

So do i and that's coming from a funkster like me. The song is just catchy, cool and laid back. Don't laugh at my funk
This funk is a serious joint | |

Why would you hate to admit this? It's a well written and executed song, in my opinion. Feeling guilty about something that pleases you (when it comes to art) is silly. | |
