4 years later and I’m still wondering why we didn’t get this on 1999 deluxe. You did an incredible job at restoring this gem and I hope we get to see more restorations like this in the future
Did you see Thriller 40 (The documentary)? Walter Yetnikoff said Michael was kissing the damn E.T. puppet. Don't get mad at me....They put that on national TV. Not me.😂
@@franklinrush7687but this version doesn’t… And I’m glad…I don’t feel cringy playing it, and more so, I don’t have to give a disclaimer when I share it with people.
I don’t know if you, the uploader or whomever edited this to take out thee…”questionable lyrics”, but I thank you. This is like literally my second favorite PRINCE track (LADY CAB DRIVER is my favorite). This is the “guilt free mix”…lol
Oh believe me usually I prefer most of his work uncensored (like Darling Nikki and We Can F***) but the brief mentions in this song and Lust U Always are very uncomfortable to me. I understand that times were different but it’s still really iffy to really discuss that
@@glamnesianouveaux2039 This might surprise you, but some people might prefer to not listen to a minute long rant about rape sandwiched in a funk song. The original is always there for you to go back to.
IKR!!! Complete FOOLERY!!! It’s a true travesty that this wasn’t on the “1999” Super Deluxe Set. I’m not in favor of any form of censorship, so I think that it should have been presented as it was. I think that even as taboo as the “rape” line was, this song shows the entire scope of the human psyche: love, sensuality, passion and rage. I think that it’s brilliant and a complete shame that people are so sensitive that they couldn’t just release this masterpiece as it is. But hey, that’s the times where living in. Clown World on steroids! 🙄🤦🏾♂️
Great restoration on these tracks! This is one of my favorites from that amazing 82-83 period. I remember getting a copy of this one on a cheap cd back in 1990 and freaking out! 💜

"Clown World on steroids?" Look, I understand that they were put into a difficult position. If they edited it, they'd compromise the artistic integrity of the track. But, quoting directly, the lyrics "I'm just going to have to rape you. Are you going to get into the tub or do I have to drag you?" read like they came from some tryhard grindcore song. It's not "Baby, it's cold outside" where the lyrics read as sus in the modern day, even though that probably wasn't the songwriters intention, or a good song by artists who are pieces of shit (Chris Brown or R. Kelly). It's a minute long segment with terrible instrumental where Prince starts explicitly screaming about raping the listener. You play that in the club and the whole place will go frigid. It aged like hot milk. No one's being overly sensitive in thinking it should've been left off the album. Sure, it would've been nice to have it restored, because without that part the song is a total banger, and it'd be easy to edit the track yourself. Put in fade out, or even do as the uploader has done and take the vocals for that part out with AI. It's not exactly easy to groove to a song with a "rape interlude". There's no escaping that it's an unfortunate piece from the past, and I think even Prince realised that, given the rape part is entirely lacking from the 2011 version.
Not you romanticizing rape. “It shows the entire scope of the human psyche” lol Prince could sing about pedophilia and some people would find a way to intellectualize it.
This is the correct speed I believe, it’s the same speed as the 2011 version and the vocals sound like prince rather then Camille 😂, if you aren’t satisfied I have downloads to both the censored & uncensored versions so you can speed it up to your liking.
This To Hard go O.G. Prince and The Revolution 💪🏾🍾🥂❤️💜. 🙏🏾🕊. Us 80z Babies definitely appreciate this. In yes can't forget about my baby Denise Matthew's aka The Legendary Vanity. 🙏🏾🕊✝️. You guys ran the 80s. Also much to The Legendary Appolonia you and Vanity are the truth hands down. Ladies still can't touch you both 🌹❤️💜
Lisa❤got to feeling like you where around ❤Extralovable 😅 Save a Siners life. What did you say Jamie Star. I want to be in this one just to HEAR THE Voices I miss the Way u ALL WORK .
Only ai in this was the splitting of the track into stems and enhancing of the high ends in the vocal, with the drums being recreated with a Linn-drum emulator. Everything else is 100 percent prince’s original demo.

The estate said because of the lyrics, it mentions rape
@@franklinrush7687 omg, we live in hypersensitive times, art being censored here and there-
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Fuck this is so good. Should’ve been released just like this
never heard it at this slower pace. i guess this pace is the authentic one. the most clear version ever. belongs in prince's top 10 songs of all time.
Yes Majestic work ❣️
NO LIES DETECTED !
That dark, grinding funk-rock guitar is just amazing. Married with the Linn drum and the hand claps is just sooooo addictive.
Still blasting this…
I don’t know if you, the uploader or whomever edited this to take out thee…”questionable lyrics”, but I thank you.
This is like literally my second favorite PRINCE track (LADY CAB DRIVER is my favorite).
This is the “guilt free mix”…lol
It was me, I was tempted to do what I did on Lust U Always and replace it with another word, but nothing worked, so I just muted it entirely.
Wow, I was thinking the exact same thing. Great minds think alike.
I absolutely LOVE this slower version.
SAME
I prefer the faster version for some reason.
You...did it! You removed the one part I was disgusted with! Thank you I might just listen to this from now on!
Remember that this isn’t what Princes vision was, but if you enjoy his work more through the edit I see it as being worth it.
Oh believe me usually I prefer most of his work uncensored (like Darling Nikki and We Can F***) but the brief mentions in this song and Lust U Always are very uncomfortable to me. I understand that times were different but it’s still really iffy to really discuss that
too soft@@nates.9744
So you are into censorship? ... So you really don't get Prince as an artist AT ALL
@@glamnesianouveaux2039 This might surprise you, but some people might prefer to not listen to a minute long rant about rape sandwiched in a funk song. The original is always there for you to go back to.
This is the best quality we will ever get most likely
THAT was a demo...???
yo the estate wouldn't release this but they'll release "Work That Fat" and "Schoolyard" ??? LOOOOLLLL

Ohhhhhh snap!!!! BEST QUALITY THUS FAR!!
More demo like this 😀;Love this, version slower than the other but more clean , thanks.Don't understand why this song is not in A-side ... Awesome
Definitive version of the song now
This. Is. Incredible.
Oh yeah, that's IT!! That's, the one, I remember!! TY that's the first one. Ty❤

Beautiful job BW. Worth the revisit! Thanks for the DL link too. Now sits in my 1999 SDE folder. Much love!
Enjoy man!

Thank you! 💜

I just heard this for the first time and I am in heaven. This should have been on the 1999 DELUXE. I am so annoyed!
@@glamnesianouveaux2039 Likewise. It’s a crying shame. Disgusting. It would have been the CENTERPIECE of that collection…🙄🤦🏾♂️🤬

This the way. Estate take notes
u miseesd an e
its Extraloveable
thanx 4 uploading the best verion 💜🐾
Both spellings are correct I believe, potato potato.
@@BeanoWildBoth are correct.
Interesting. How are you processing it?
Splitting the track, enhancing the vocal & overdubbing the drums, along with some mixing and filters.
@@BeanoWild it's good but how did you change the words in lust u always? It's been driving me nuts trying to figure it out.
💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼💃🏼
Wow, could have been on 1999 or Purple Rain !
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💯💪🏽
DOOR NUMBER PANTS!
G spot, please
The song is so clear. But too slow in my opinion. Big let down cmonn.
This is the correct speed I believe, it’s the same speed as the 2011 version and the vocals sound like prince rather then Camille 😂, if you aren’t satisfied I have downloads to both the censored & uncensored versions so you can speed it up to your liking.
@BeanoWild where are the downloads? I'd love a version this clear, but slightly sped up.

Lisa❤got to feeling like you where around ❤Extralovable 😅 Save a Siners life. What did you say Jamie Star. I want to be in this one just to HEAR THE Voices I miss the Way u ALL WORK .
Why is it slow
It's a jam, but your version is too slow. This correct tempo version would've dumped all over "Oh Sheila", and that was THE jam then. Speed this up.
the bootleg was sped up, if you'd like to speed it up you can using the download in the desc.,
Oh, did not know, my apologies. I have the sped up version now.
