Prince (November 23, 1987) I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man - Single 7" UK
I Could Never Take The Place Of Your Man is one of Prince’s sharpest pop‑rock statements — a story‑driven track with a blistering guitar break and a hook that still hits decades later. The UK single’s tight 3:39 fade made it radio‑ready, while Hot Thing added a dancefloor punch. With multiple label variants and a strong chart run, it remains a favourite among collectors and a testament to the creative fire of the Sign O’ The Times era.
