BUT WHY? (YOU HAD YOUR FUN)



performed on:

The eight-minute kickoff single for FUN hit radio and caused mass confusion a matter of days before "Zap" (the first from SCIENCE) leaked. No edit was made, so stations played the whole thing. It's derived from a jam that consisted of Janet and Nick on computers blaring different sound effects and trying to create syncopated rhythms. The whole thing's in real time so there are even lapses of silence. This was hailed by some as innovative, others as pretentious. Live versions of this were head-spinning but rare.
