U Got The Look [ Gary Numan / Prince ]



It is the opinion of this humble blogger that Prince is one of the most underrated rock musicians ever. He's a wicked fiend on the guitar, but he also practices the art of self restraint, so he's never all in your face about it, so when he decides to really less loose, you're all like "Whoa! Where the hell did that come from.

Not to mention in his heyday, he was so far ahead of his time, both musically and socially. He thought about the whole y2k problem in the 80's ... wait, that's not what 1999 was about. Okay well he invented text messaging short hand years before txting was popular used in such song titles as "I Would Die 4 U", "Nothing Compares 2 U" and the ditty here covered by Gary Numan, " U Got the Look."

You don't remember Gary Numan? Here try this "Here in my car; I feel safest of all; something something; in Carz; bloop blebleep bloop." Yeah, he's that guy.
