This CD contains 3 remixes of the #6 hit "Thieves in the Temple". The first remix is an extended eight minute version of the song that is really great. The other two versions are mostly instrumental and are only moderately interesting.

Theives In the Temple is arguably Prince's best dance remix of the 90s. It is classic Prince style with a funky bass line and irresistable, multi-voiced background vocals. The additional verse makes the remix all the better. The "House" version of "Temple" is all about getting up off your butt and jamming. A must own.

at first because of the Arrangements of the music it took me a while to get into the song.but the Lyrics were strong&The Extended Mix put it over for me.this is one of his 90's best without a doubt.the Mixes Really take this Song to another level.but those Lyrics are some of Prince's Best Ever.

My mom actually purchased this on vinyl when it first came out. As always with Prince, when he does a single, he adds extra versions of the song that most are bound to enjoy more so than the radio or even album edits. And any vinyl head I know always wants an extended version and a dance version, both are included with this LP.

Brilliant song< Brilliant remixes, the eight minute mix is outstanding, one of my fave Prince songs. The mix and Dub are good too.

I like Thieves In The Temple, not one of my favorites, but still very strong, though I tend to feel a bit weary towards the Graffiti Bridge album.

These mixes, however, are rather weak. I hate dubs, they always take whatever pieces from the vocal remix that weren't from the original recording and just make it twice as long, this dub is a classic example. With that said, there really isn't any reason why I should wish to listen to this single.

I had gotten this out of impulse at a record store, and it wasn't a bad buy, but I can think of many more Prince singles that had much more effort put into them.
