Love Bizarre?

Continuing the 80s theme, but not the poppiness of it all, comes a pop-funk tune from drummer/guitarist and Prince sometime bedmate Sheila E. The song "The Love Bizarre" comes off her 1985 album Romance 1600. A lot of the success of the song has been attributed to Prince, due to this being the only collaborative track on the album. The beat syncopation, the use of the horns and bassline are markedly different than her other efforts on the album, making for a bit of an off-tone to the rest of the tracks.

Anyway, it's a fun song. Enjoy.

Wow... I haven't posted any Prince yet. Interesting.
