Featuring members of his classic band the Revolution, it feels more like \u201cChurchquake\u201d instead of \u201cHousequake.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%9CI_Need_a_Man%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>\u201cI Need a Man\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>No, this wasn\u2019t Prince\u2019s secret coming-out song. Instead, this sexy strutter \u2014 horned-up in every way \u2014 was a tune he intended for Bonnie Raitt. Bopping around the bluesy track, Prince recorded a reference vocal for the \u201cSomething to Talk About\u201d singer in 1987. Although Raitt never ended up recording the song herself, Prince owns it. It hardly matters that he\u2019s lusting for a dude.<\/p>\n<p><!--If the slideshow is embedded in another post type add the inline wrapper --><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%9CCan_I_Play_with_U%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>\u201cCan I Play with U?\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>This one is a highlight simply because it pairs Prince up with another late legend \u2014 Miles Davis \u2014 on trumpet. A blast of a horn workout, also featuring Prince saxophone sideman Eric Leeds, this nearly seven-minute jam was originally intended for Davis\u2019 1986 \u201cTutu\u201d album, but never made the cut.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%9CTheres_Something_I_Like_About_Being_Your_Fool%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>\u201cThere\u2019s Something I Like About Being Your Fool\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Prince never did much reggae, so it\u2019s refreshing to hear him ride a breezy island riddim with a relaxed vocal style that makes him sound like he\u2019s chilling on the beach with a frozen daiquiri. Bonus points for the song title, which hints at his under<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>reciated sense of humor.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"%E2%80%9CLove_and_Sex%E2%80%9D\"><\/span>\u201cLove and Sex\u201d<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Recorded in 1986, this orgasmic bedroom ballad shares its title with another track Prince had previously released in 1984, but this is a completely different song.
