"“The Penguin” is also credited with backing vocals on “Housequake,” but this was in fact a toy, a stuffed animal, which was used as a practical joke prop at Paisley Park. Because of Prince’s unusual working hours, it wasn’t uncommon for recording engineers to doze off every now and then. The joke was to take a snapshot of the “victim” asleep with the stuffed penguin in his or her arms."

Nice story.

No matter how tired I am, I can't imagine dozing off while Prince is recording Housequake in front of me
