This is one of my favorite 1990s singles from Prince! It's a really fun, catchy singalong track that is perfectly produced. I suspect that the lyrics are good, but I'm still not even 100% certain what they mean.
It's kind of surprising how quickly he fell off after the (excellent) Diamonds & Pearls album IMO. This is the same album that contained "Cream" and "Insatiable" and "Damn U." He has definitely had many other excellent songs since then, but he definitely hasn't been consistent for as long as I've been listening to music.
Kind of funny that this song peaked at #7 on the Hot 100.
