Dance With The Devil

Hey guys..
I really want to hear Prince's "Dance With The Devil" out-take song. The "Batman" soundtrack is my favorite Prince album and I'd love to hear all the out-takes. But, "Dance With The Devil" seems like the most interesting.

So what does it sound like??? thumbs up!

Its sparse with conga . Almost like Others Here With Us but was below that in quality. It almost sounds uninspired by the numbers "dark."

He repeats the title dance with th e devil in the pale monlight over and over at the end. Its good that it was left off the soundtrack.

It gives great insight into how much thought he put into the Batman soundtrack. He obviously put a lot of effort into it.

I think Dance With The Devil matches the mood and tone of the film perfectly.

Definately one of the most disappointing out-takes to find it's way into circulation.

Very little musical interest, think of Others Here With Us + the first part of Crystal Ball - it goes nowhere.

Interesting how opinions differ sometimes. Turn It Up (the book) praised it very highly. Though I think that those neo-classical keyboard lines fooled them into thinking how complex and daring it is.

Of course they also said how ordinary Electric Intercourse is, so...

It's still interesting though, if only because Prince doesn't really have a whole lot of such songs, atmosphere-wise.

It's forced dark-mood. NOw 101 would have fit better music wise. Thats dark-mood. Dance is just dumb.
