The A Side:
If I Was Your Girlfriend 4:54
The B Side:
Shockadelica (Extended Version) 6:12
The Brief:
“If I Was Your Girlfriend” was the second of four ‘Sign “O” The Times’ singles and the only one of the four that didn’t deliver Prince a Top 10 hit on the US Hot 100 singles chart. On the flip side is the non-album track “Shockadelica” as an extended version that has never been commercially available on CD.

This song was banned on our radios here back in 1987…too risque…
I wouldn’t have chosen this as a second single from the album, even though it is a classic Prince single.
Wow. Thanks for this, great sounding rip. I have the 12″ and Shockadelica is one of my favourite Prince songs. Have wanted it in FLAC for a while but there’s no way I’d be able to do a rip this good on my budget. Thanks again.
Anonymous Coward? Really? LOL You’re welcome, thanks for stopping by and commenting.
‘Shockadelica’ is an LP by Jesse Johnson [ no ?]
And did not Prince send a note to him saying something about
“If you come up with a Brilliant Album Title = kinda MAD – NOT to do a song with the same name”
let me know if any of this is ‘cobblers’ lol
