A Love Below in general has Prince written all over it... "She Lives In My Lap" "Happy Valentine's Day" "Prototype"....

i read somewhere that Andre said The Hives influenced him to write Hey Ya!, but you can hear Prince's influence ALL over The Love Below.

The whole sound of timbaland, neptunes, outkast and the latest JT stuff is influenced by Prince.

The drums of the gwen stefani hit 'bananas' are nicked from housequake but changed a little


Andre is not fit to lick the fecal matter off Prince's high heels!
