"Sexuality" is the second track on Prince 's 1981 album, '' Controversy ''. The song was also released as a single in Germany , Japan and Australia .

"Sexuality" is a fast-pased New Wave track, built around a synth bass line and drum machines. Much like "Controversy", a funky rhythm guitar is used throughout the song with brief stabs of rock thrown in. Similar to the song " Uptown ", Prince describes a society free from prejudice as a "New Breed". The political number also takes jabs at tourists and the sensationalism of television.

The B-side of the single was " Controversy " in Germany and Japan, while Australia paired it with "''' I Wanna Be Your Lover '''", from 1979 's '' Prince ''.


TRIVIA

  • Prince reused the "Sexuality" line "reproduction of a new breed/Stand up, organize" on the title track for his 2001 album, '' The Rainbow Children ''.
