    "A Love Bizarre" is a song written by Prince and Sheila E. The song is a duet between both singers and it appears on Sheila E.'s 1985 album Romance 1600. It clocks in at 12:16, but the single version is 3:46 in duration. It made its debut in the music movie Krush Groove.
    Throughout the song, Prince interpolates the traditional French folk song "Frère Jacques" on bass guitar.[2]
    The song was a major hit and reached #1 on the Urban radio airplay and Dance/Club play charts.[3] On other American charts, "A Love Bizarre" went to #2 on the U.S. R&B charts and #11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and Pop radio airplay charts.[4] The German 12" single release is backed by the B-side "Save the People" which also served as the B-side for her previous single "Sister Fate". She performed the song as part of Ringo Starr & His All-Starr Band during their 2001, 2003 and 2006 tours.

    ...This Song was about Sheila & Prince's secret love affair...It was ONLY supposed to be just her vocalizing, but Prince 'added' soulful vocals to it....It peaked at #11 Pop for 3 weeks, early 1986....

I am also enjoying being educated by my fellow Empressionists in the comments with the history and knowledge of all these songs including this one. Had no idea that this was really more of a duet with Prince with both of them basically singing the entire song together. This is another song that immediately got me out to the dance floor in my clubbing days. 😄🕺🏼

    💜 It is so fun that Sheila was such a Prince muse, and this song is so deep groove 80s Prince it couldn’t be anything but 🔥 especially with Prince on “backing” vocals… tho that man’s voice always commands attention. Also… Shout out to the thickly accessorised 80s vehement denial of Coco Chanel’s rule to take one thing off before leaving the house! 80s style was all about PILE MORE STUFF ON! And I just noticed that’s the handsome Blair Underwood in the casually underdeveloped narrative of the video (before he became world famous on the show LA Law), looked it up and this video is a montage version of a club scene in a movie called Krush Groove that I may now have to track down 🎞🔍

    ... No this is beyond that standard 80's corny ass Saxophone. This is, how you perfectly put it, that funky MPLS funk saxophone. Check out the extended version 12 minutes if you want Prince saxophone layering perfection. Good God that version! One of his finest work.

    This was such a huge hit back in the day. I remember it being on the radio all the time.
    But to be quite honest this is a duet at best, more like a Prince track with Sheila E on backing vocals. She's great though.

  • @mikecaetano

    Swagger! Sheila E released this on the Paisley Park label and Prince co-wrote and produced the song and it sounds to my ears like he sang the second part on the recording even though he doesn't show up in the video. It probably would have overshadowed the show if he had and she deserves the showcase on this song. "A Love Bizarre" made its debut in the 1985 musical comedy-drama Krush Groove, featuring a cast of Hip-Hop legends -- Run-D.M.C., LL Cool J, Kurtis Blow, Fat Boys, New Edition, Beastie Boys and Chaka Khan and Debbie Harry -- including Sheila E, as herself, playing the object of competing affections in the movie. I saw the movie a few years after its release; However, I remember hearing the song quite a lot at social events that year. Setting aside the eighties for a spell, two years ago this month Sheila E did the kid of some friends of mine whose band equipment was stolen after a gig a total solid when she gave him one of her drum kits to replace his stolen kit. Major respect!

    Appolonia and Vanity were more like Prince clones and it was more about marketing rather than talent. So a lot of people were kind of shocked when Prince actually wrote and produced music for a very talented musician in her own right. Sheila E has done some really cool jazz albums without Prince's involvement. She's a real musician that Prince admired and toured with up to his final days. Prince was big on sax and brass lines around this time. I believe this hit came out during his "Around the World in a Day" period. That was quite an era just like "Purple Rain" was to those who followed it.

      It’s a Prince song with Prince. Madonna can write her own tracks. Produce. Dance. Neither are great vocalists. But one has more range. Sheila a percussionist that found a way to get a solo career…. Do what you gotta do. Even if she’s really into women…. This song pales in comparison to quite a few M tracks. But there’s no need to diss one to build up another.
