Nope but sure have tried. It's nice to hear him using this technique again and adds that extra edge to this bad-ass song
The greatest live performer of our times was is and always will be Prince.

Remember there is only one destination and that place is U
All of it. Everything. Is U.

well it would seem that a program like sound forge would give many options for this. shrug

I heard a few things some others have said, this is waht I also heard:

Lets dance on
I move inside
Everytime it comes I go
Shhh....uh
Its all alone inside of my room
Inside of my room inside
Everytime
I go
U can cut off all my fins - But 2 your ways I will not bend
I'll die before I let U tell me how 2 swim
And I'll come back again as a dolphin
