Coulda been produced by Prince or The Time...all a tight crew back in the 80's...but that was the sound, it was defined by the cadence of the beat and the electronic drum kits etc. This song is the shi*!!!!
@dmoney668 Many people mistook Prince for being responsible for the song, when in fact it was a Ready For The World original, and this mistake was made because of the song's influence of the Minneapolis sound. The drumkit is a "powerdrum" typical for the early electronic big studio commercial sounds of the 80's.
@openthetirdeye Not to pick a fight or attack you but, It's definitely NOT Prince. I can however see where Prince would be your 1st guess. It's got something to do with the beat and the bassline. It sounds sorta kinda prince-ish. But to answer your question it is in fact Ready For The World and not The artist formerly known as prince.
When I first heard this I thought "Michael Jackson did music inbetween Off the Wall and Thriller?"... I was pretty dumb to not know who "Ready for the World" was...
im in the car listining to this.i ask my dad if this is prince and he says yes.i go to my mom and says that i shouldnt go to my dad for anything that has to with music.i was weak.
This was my SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTT!!! :D First time I heard it I have to admit that I thought it was Prince singin about Sheila E. though. lol Either way, great song.
Damn! 80's radio was so much fun. I know I know, the younger kids will say "stop with that 80's stuff" but seriously, it was a treat right across the dial. Does e-bay sell time machines?
His voice sounds kinda gay but i looooooovvvveeee thisss soooonnngg and let me love you down :D.!!!!!!!!!!! OH OH SHEILA! this makes me wish my name was sheila
I remember i had their tape and would play it over & over again on my walkman while on bus ride home from school. lol. soph? junior? dang. long time ago.
4 months later, grew me a little curl, got it juiced up, i wasnt playin, i even went to guitar center and bought me a roland keyboard guitar synthesizer, whippin that thang neck snappin on the 2 and 4 juice everywhere
I USE TO SING THIS SONG TO THE GIRL ACROSS THE STREET NAME "SHELIA"....I HAD THE BIGGEST CRUSH ON HER.....SHE WAITS 2000 TO TLEL ME SHE LIKED ME ALSO...OHHHH OHHHHH SHELIAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! THIS SONG BREAKS MY HEART LOL....OH OH SHELIA THATS WHAT I GET FOR MESSING WITH THE JUMP OFF OF THE HOOD! DAMN DAMN DAMN!!!! OH SHELIA!
@whatislovedonthurtme per Wikipedia "Ready for the World is an American R&B band from Flint, Michigan who scored several moderate pop, soul, and dance hits in the mid to late 1980s." ...I was about to say, if that's Australian he musta been talking with a mouthful of Koala
I LOVE THIS SONG THIS IS THE SHIT OR SHOULD I SAY THIS MY SHIT OR JAM LOL BUT I LOVE THIS SONG ITS ON MY IPHONE4 "OH SHEILA LET ME LOVE U TILL THE MORING" LOL XD
Bad hair bad clothes ,and a sixteen yearold goes banana's on the disco dancefloor back in the day ( me ) . Great time's , lots of fun with friends and making out in the back of the club with debby . GOOOOOOOOOOOOD times , and idd i also hope for a comback .
Please tell me you can get this song on iTunes :-)
