I cant see any Beck similarity in there actually. Maybe I should listento a little more Beck. (or maybe im crazy) But for now, I voted for just Prince.

I'm sure there's another Beck song that it's closer to, but not being a huge Beck fan, to me it's has elements of his song, "Sexx Laws".

It does have elements from "Sexx Laws", and every other song on Beck's "Midnite Vultures" album. But, the one that would probably remind someone of Al the most is "Peaches and Cream", which is where Al got the "Girl, you must be Jamaican..." part.

The Beck theory is a little stronger than the Prince theory when you consider that Al used DJ Swamp, who has scratched on a few Beck tracks.

The Winner or should I say The band/singer that comes close is Linkin Park Remember In The End was Spelt Diffently but Prince and Beck I think 2nd would be Prince even though I haven't heard the song I think in my book It will be a winner
