No kidding about the drum intro...this whole song is insane!! I usually don't comment on social media but just had to take a moment to say Prince, had he still been with us, would have been very sad at the passing of John Blackwell...he could shred his drums like Prince could shred his guitar...hard to believe they are both no longer with us. Much respect to both of them!!
He sang this live in Cleveland around 2002. I was lucky enough to have front row seats and sing along with him. One of my most cherished memories. He also did an acoustic version of LRC that show. It was amazing.
Matthew Olden If u havent listened to the interview with Scottie, Prince's sound engineer at that time...youll find it very interesting...the way he describes how incredibly accurate ,Michael Bland is with his timing. Very freakin cool!!
Prince gave the song to Tevin for his second album, if you are a true Prince fan, you can hear him singing background vocals on Tevin's recording. Tevin was only 15 when the song came out so he didn't have the maturity that Prince had when he recorded it. Both versions are great if you listen to them from the proper perspective instead of comparing the two.
Thank you. Comparing the 2 is asinine. Tevin was like a protégé part time. He had already given him Round and Round for Graffiti Bridge. "I'd rather do you after school like some homework." Yeah folks, that line screams 35 year old man. The song was written for Tevin. I like them both for very different reasons.
The NPG is immaculate in both versions! I always listen for Barberella's keyboard play in Tevin's version. Prince's guitar solo is one of his most erotic recorded solos on his jam.
I was able to see Prince perform this in Cleveland around 2002. I was a huge Tevin Campbell fan, so while most people sang along to other songs and stopped on this one I was belting with him. It was amazing because I was blessed with front row seat and he smiled knowing I knew the song and we sung together. It is one of my most cherished memories. I was able to see him in my hometown right before his death at a very small venue. I yelled Cleveland "Shh Break It Down" and his face went into a smile of recognition and he threw me his pic. I had to wait in the rain for hours for those seats. Best time ever spent. I will miss him and his gift forever.
You can hear the ending with all those dreamy keyboard arrangements this dude was definitely not of this world !!! How can a human come up with that unless their gifted like Prince!!! You are sorely missed Purple One😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥
💜Prince can take any song & sing it better than anybody else who he either gave the song to or the song is there's. Nobody can do it like Prince. When Prince was made the mold was broken...Miss & LoVe U my Prince 4 Ever💜💜
Can't listen to this song anymore without thinking of Hong Kong Harbor performance with John Blackwell on drums..... mesmerizing!!!! Thank you for posting...absolutely beautiful to me!
Such a melodic & extremely passionate song!! Loving everything about this song!! &, Oh,Prince's perfect, dreamy, sensuous voice!! Like no other!! The music in this is incredible!! The Master, Prince, always gave us so much, the very best!!
I apologize. I was so wrong. The title of the video is The Gold Experience full album. However., the guy who put up the video showed small clips from the Gold Experience. The rest of the video is him talking about "what he claimed" were facts about Prince. Again, l apologize. I should have done my research and listened to the video before I replied to you.
Most likely the ORIGINAL of most remakes is the best version...but I must say Tevin Campbell did a really good job on his version of this track as well....Just a beautiful song all together....! RIP PRINCE.......
LeMelleKH2 Nope..Prince first recorded Shhh in 1992 and then he added Tevin's vocals..and Prince gave Shhh to Tevin for his 1993 I'm Ready. album .But the artist himself re released Shhh in 1995 and put it on his Gold Experience album..
The guitar combined with the vocals is sexy asf! I absolutely love Tevin's version; but this version will have a lady let her hair down and let everything go!
Pure Genius, Sensational, Outstanding, Unsurpassed, R.IP Prince..We miss you and the Joy you gave us with your inspirational music.. Love this song, Love Your music Prince......Wow...Still mourning you Prince every day...This music is beyond fabulous..

(Oh) Break it down, break it down Down, down, down, down [Repeat: x4] Sex is not all I think about It's just all I think about you Oh yeah Sex is not all I think about It's just all I think about you
Prince killed this track..He took a page from The Ohio Players to open up a ballad with a drum solo..are you kidding me the brother was so gifted with musical talent ..so sad he's no longer with us..Rest In Purple Peace
In my humble opinion, the NPG was his best band. Additionally, while the late, great John Blackwell was a drumming monster, my favorite Prince drummer was the man playing here, Michael Bland. RIP Prince and John.
I'm inconsolable crying...this is beyond music..God where is Prince..please take care of him!!!!!
Tevin killed it on his version. Prince took it to another level. Tevin hit a home run. Prince hit a Grandslam. So good. Grown folk music.
Grown folk music!!!
@@davidlewis3092 Yes it is.
Prince wrote this for tevin
Well said!
@@jasonjones5765 Thanks!
No kidding about the drum intro...this whole song is insane!!

Yeah. Also, Michael Bland's drums on this is fantastic
kenzie rocks Michael Bland played drums on this track
as a drummer my self .. well i try to re play and practice this intro man its so wicked i wish i could play like him yeah
kenzie rocks this is Michael Bland on drums...for those who still don't know
Michael Bland is playing the drums here John did live
When he said “sex is not all I think about... it’s just all I think about YOU” I felt that shit
Me too. It just hit different. 💜
Seeing Prince do this live was some bucket list shit. RIP to the GOAT
Indeed..
He sang this live in Cleveland around 2002. I was lucky enough to have front row seats and sing along with him. One of my most cherished memories. He also did an acoustic version of LRC that show. It was amazing.
@@illbeyourstumbleine You're absolutely gorgeous! I dedicate this beautiful song to you wherever you may be. Happy Holidays; subbed!🌹✌🏽👑
Love Prince's whisper at the end, "sex is not all I think about...it's just all I think about you" So hot!!
Those drum solos are thunderous and awesome!
A brilliant song: and those drums!
I just had to give it a try and do a rendition: enjoy! ✌🏻🤩
czcams.com/video/jo2rgaMR6SU/video.html
the drumming intro to this song is just insane
MrPizza063 The one and only Michael Bland.
Michael Bland is a beast.
i keep practising this drum intro its so wicked
Matthew Olden If u havent listened to the interview with Scottie, Prince's sound engineer at that time...youll find it very interesting...the way he describes how incredibly accurate ,Michael Bland is with his timing. Very freakin cool!!
MrPizza063 middle section too.

Kim XmasBaby Tevin sang the hell outta this song considering his age and lack of experience!
Thank you. Comparing the 2 is asinine. Tevin was like a protégé part time. He had already given him Round and Round for Graffiti Bridge. "I'd rather do you after school like some homework." Yeah folks, that line screams 35 year old man. The song was written for Tevin. I like them both for very different reasons.
but you got to admit it was hot for back then that was the jam but to be honest he had no right to be singing that at that age
Absolutely!
The NPG is immaculate in both versions! I always listen for Barberella's keyboard play in Tevin's version. Prince's guitar solo is one of his most erotic recorded solos on his jam.
Okay, I should not be listening to this song while I'm single and celibate! LOL
I’m super guilty too. 🤷🏽♀️
I KNOW RIGHT DEEPLY RELATABLE ESPECIALLY THE FALL SEASON. OOOH WEE, ROMANTIC TIME OF YEAR😏🥰
This song is my baby daddy
Hahaha!!!!! Same sis! I’m just appreciating the musicianship (WINK) 😉🤣😂
Hmmmm
I was able to see Prince perform this in Cleveland around 2002. I was a huge Tevin Campbell fan, so while most people sang along to other songs and stopped on this one I was belting with him.

Sensuality at its finest
OMG. His guitar solo....my God!!!!!
You can hear the ending with all those dreamy keyboard arrangements this dude was definitely not of this world !!! How can a human come up with that unless their gifted like Prince!!! You are sorely missed Purple One😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😞🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸💥💥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Timeless, 🔥, sensual, raw, sexual... Everything! I miss you with all my purple soul!
prince was a musical genius with his music brilliant one of a kind yeah
💜Prince can take any song & sing it better than anybody else who he either gave the song to or the song is there's. Nobody can do it like Prince. When Prince was made the mold was broken...Miss & LoVe U my Prince 4 Ever💜💜

You are so right.
His music is always straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥! Love it!!!
Give me chills!
This song is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Nora Perez and so is he

Courtney Nelson Me too! Very often & unbeknownst! 😢🙏🏾💜
I feel the same way, however we will see him in the dawn
💓
Can't listen to this song anymore without thinking of Hong Kong Harbor performance with John Blackwell on drums..... mesmerizing!!!! Thank you for posting...absolutely beautiful to me!
Sandra Smith no
Sandra Smith yea John killed it I love the drummer on here too. I remember growing up loving how P would switch up bands. He’s simply amazing! 💜💜
Such a melodic & extremely passionate song!! Loving everything about this song!! &, Oh,Prince's perfect, dreamy, sensuous voice!! Like no other!! The music in this is incredible!! The Master, Prince, always gave us so much, the very best!!
WHY isn't The Gold Experience album on Spotify?!😣💛...so happy to say this album is now on Spotify along wit more Prince albums💛😆
Edgar Santana I know right!
@spotify We want answers!!
Not on Amazon Music either. LET'S HAVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Edgar Santana someone just added it to CZcams.
Laurie G the full album in 1 video clip you mean?
I apologize. I was so wrong. The title of the video is The Gold Experience full album. However., the guy who put up the video showed small clips from the Gold Experience. The rest of the video is him talking about "what he claimed" were facts about Prince. Again, l apologize. I should have done my research and listened to the video before I replied to you.
You can tell he wasn't from here.He's so above anything that's ever been made or heard.Never will anyone touch him and I'm so lost without him..
Almost 2019 and this song is still fly.
Damn i thought the drum intro to I Want To Be Free by the Ohio Players was an off the wall drum intro for a slow jam but this comes second
Most likely the ORIGINAL of most remakes is the best version...but I must say Tevin Campbell did a really good job on his version of this track as well....Just a beautiful song all together....! RIP PRINCE.......
Tevin IS the original recording lol
Yeah ..but Prince wrote and produced it ..which means Shhh IS Prince's song..
Sherita Jones Im not saying it isnt Prince’s song, but the original comment implied that Tevin’s was a cover when his recording was the original
LeMelleKH2 Nope..Prince first recorded Shhh in 1992 and then he added Tevin's vocals..and Prince gave Shhh to Tevin for his 1993 I'm Ready. album .But the artist himself re released Shhh in 1995 and put it on his Gold Experience album..
Oh shoot, I didnt know about the 1992 release. Now I gotchu, now I got a new song to listen to ;)
One of my favorite, songs, album, by my beloved Prince! He was a musical genius & a master guitarist! It shows in this song! i miss him dearly!💜
"...like some homework" Man, if only I thought of that back in the day...LOL
eabsurfs808 😆
eabsurfs808 lmaoooo
🤣😂🤣😂
The drumming on this song is awesome.
Am I wrong? I think this was his best album. 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧
I think so. Mayte inspired some amazing music.
Yes I agree it was.
I'm on board. 👍 at the very least my favorite album. That's hard seeing all of his great body of work. 👍✊☝

Whos listening in 20 20
Prince knew how to make a guitar scream. LOVE this song and the riffs. 🔥🫠🫠💜🥰
Love this song 🔥
the drumming in this song is just insanely wickedly cool
I just stopped by to hear that epic 🔥🎸 solo interlude for a wonderful eargasim
One of his sexiest songs and when played live is on another level. I like Tevin's version too but Prince is the master.❤️❤️
I Love this song. Prince is so sensual...I MISS HIM.
The guitar combined with the vocals is sexy asf! I absolutely love Tevin's version; but this version will have a lady let her hair down and let everything go!
One of my favorite guitar 🎸 solos !
Greatest drum into since OP's "I Want to Be Free!"
@3:52
Lover: I love you!
Prince, a true Gemini: Yeah.
🤣🤣🤷🏾♀️😎
This is real music 🎶
That Drum Intro........🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
A true musical legend.
Very inspirational & experimental in his attitude
Towards music.
HE A TRUE GUINNIUSE
Prince is in every tear, smile & laugh, Love.
I Love this song.
I recall some nice times when this would be playing.
My fav prince song
Time for a cold shower!!! :)
Well uhhh....umm...ahem... I think I need to go take a cold shower. A really really cold shower
Queen of the Grandenites haha. 😉
I agree with you
I know what you mean girl. Where are the other men in the world that are like Prince? Surely God didn't only make one.
Can I wash your back, body, and hair
My God, you’re beautiful! I could be your fire...... wait, now I need a cold shower
Love this better than Tevin Campbell's version. Something about that Prince finesse on a track.
Toni Wellons I love both 😄
Prince #1
Toni Wellons of coarse he wrote it he's not gonna let a kid out do him even though tevins version was good too
Toni Wellons me too!!!
Prince covers of his own songs are always better than whomever he gave them to.
This song is dope.
This one right here 🔥🔥🤤. And the live version when he adds the guitar riff.. there will never be another PRN 💜.
Banging this in 2020 during Coronavirus isolation
Both versions are BOMB!
I love this original version better. Tevin Campbell did well but Prince though... He made it AMAZING.
This isnt the original, Tevin's is. PRince wrote it though
This IS the demo he gave to tevin but then warner bros released it after tevin had success with it
Yessssss. Better than tevin Campbell's version.
L’une des meilleures chansons de prince si ce n’est là meilleur pour moi ....
Prince could take you on a love journey and make you feel what he was trying to convey!💜🎶☔️🎸
Straight fire 🔥🔥🔥
And I’m still listening to this song in 2020 #PrinceAndJohnBlackwell #MatchMadeFromHeaven #ContinueToRestEasy
That's Micheal Bland not John Blackwell John is dope but on this particular track it's Micheal.
vanitysmirror True.. But Michael Bland is still alive..
Prince sexiest man that ever lived.
Amen!
Hell yeah!😍🥰😘🔥
You just spoke the truth 💯
Pure Genius, Sensational, Outstanding, Unsurpassed, R.IP Prince..We miss you and the Joy you gave us with your inspirational music.. Love this song, Love Your music Prince......Wow...Still mourning you Prince every day...This music is beyond fabulous..
"You make me wanna"
Drum intro/solo.
Laaaaaaawd!!!!!!! This man this man this man!!!!!! #PaisleyNation
I started singing this at work from memories, had to find it. Tevin did it justice but Prince was the Architect
Agreed!
I love Tevin Campbell version also :)
Devin Haley yeeesss
Prince wrote this for tevin album but then warner released it later on the gold album
Both are fire. Tevin's version was all that Prince brought the grown man to it. Damn

In my bedroom (No!) cause then we'd have to stop (Please don't stop)

May U Live 2 See The Dawn 💜
Prince killed this track..He took a page from The Ohio Players to open up a ballad with a drum solo..are you kidding me the brother was so gifted with musical talent ..so sad he's no longer with us..Rest In Purple Peace
Ro James needs to remake this
In my humble opinion, the NPG was his best band. Additionally, while the late, great John Blackwell was a drumming monster, my favorite Prince drummer was the man playing here, Michael Bland. RIP Prince and John.
As a Prince fan and a drummer, I 100% agree with you.
Yes he was always evolving. That is what I loved about him.
Prince made this song scream.. not Tevin Campbell.. but I loved me some Telvin back in the day tho
A hell of a musician
You got to be kidding to think Tevin Campbells was better.
They both are 🔥🔥🔥
quite the masterpiece
This masterpiece caused me to own the album.
These is one of his most underrated song
I don't think ANY of Prince's classics were ever underrated lol.
5:35 on out omg
Awesome!
Prince still is the man,would have liked to see what Prince could do whith Jannell Monea,musicaly(WOW)😳
A true masterpiece
Everything about this song is perfect🤠
Love this
My all-time favorite!!!!!
Yess!!💟
Micheal Bland in the HOUSE!!
I love this music this album
No drummer aney more or Prince. Great album/ cd what ever format

This Love is a Private Affair 💜💜💜
Candle light... I don't think so. The crackle of the flame would just spoil my flow. GENIUS
