Originally recorded for a “Camilla” album (eight tracks recorded by Prince using speed-ed up vocals and one of his female alter-egos Camilla). Aside from being musically adventurous (love the introductory rhythm) and very catchy it has the absolute killer opening line “If I was your girlfriend would you tell me all the things you forgot when I was your man.” It’s a great meditation on the obsessiveness of love where you want to be everything (lover, best friend, even if you hurt them you want to be the one they turn too) and you want your obsession reciprocated.
