So, I was watching Purple Rain for the first time, in years yesterday. There is this scene. Does anyone know the name of that weird music that's playing in the background before Prince and Apollonia first love/sexy scene?

Instrumental of God.

I heard the God Instrumental, that's not it.

You mean the backwards-crying, "King Kong" bit?

Is it a weird version of "The Beautiful Ones"?

Yeah I think that's it. He mention something like "it sounds like she is crying doesn't it?"

Do you know the name of it?

I've never heard of it having a name.

That's the part I'm talking about. (the person above me didn't identify it)

Ok. Was it like release or anything?

No, that background music was never released. To me, the reversed female voice sounds like Vanity's orgasm from Vibrator played backwards. Vibrator is another unreleased track but the vocals from that track appear on the Come album. Damn, I've just gone crosseyed.

the movie has alternate versions of Purple Rain (he listens on cassette) and an alternate Computer Blue (when he comes in late for band rehearsal).
