"Yeah um It was a lot of fun, a lot of people like to say did you collaborated with Prince in the studio
I don't say we collaborated as much as the Revolution tried to live out his dream, we got into the mind of Prince we learned what it was he was trying to accomplish. So I think that was more the collaboration, us learning 'what is it you're looking for?'

and once we could see his direction, we would jam so much, we would sometimes jam from 10 o'clock in the morning to 10 o'clock at night. I remember sometimes eating lunch while I'm still playing. I would walk to the lunchroom with my bass because it was on a wireless rig and then I would go into the refrigerator grab food and come back and I'd still be playing with one hand while eating. That's how intense we were, and I think from that we helped Prince create not only a style and energy but it was almost like a freight train, it was so heavy that even when other musicians would come and stand up with us they didn't even know where to begin, it was very difficult for them to hang with us because the style that we developed was so powerful and was so rhythmic that uh they didn't know how to jam with us. It was a very interesting time period, but I think I think a lot of music came from that type of grooving and jamming together"

This next song is dedicated to that little girl over there

Sheila E dame

1 2 3

I've been wondering what 2 wear
I love our noon rendezvous
I know U tell me U missed me
And I long 2 make love 2 U

Your words, they intoxicate me
I shiver each time that U speak
How much more can I endure, my love?
The sound of your voice makes me weak

If my bodily functions operate
This way when U just call my name
I'd hate 2 see when we are finally
Playing that nasty love game

Your words, they intoxicate me
I shiver each time U speak
How much more how much more can I endure, my love?
The sound of your voice makes me weak
Guitars & drums
Lisa

God ~ Prince & the Revolution

Why don't U, dance the Dance Electric?

the Dance Electric, the Sunday songs, the Love theme, the Temptation connection

18 GOD (4:02)
Produced, Arranged, Composed and Performed by Prince and The Revolution
Published by Controversy Music, administered by WB Music Corp. ASCAP
B-side of “PURPLE RAIN”

GOD turned out to be one of Prince’s more obscure flip sides. Released with PURPLE RAIN, engineer Susan Rogers remembers it as a “Sunday song.”

“Almost all of Prince’s songs with religious or spiritual overtones – ‘God,’ The Cross,’ ‘Sign ‘O’ The Times’ – were recorded on Sundays,” she explains. “We were at the warehouse on a really hot afternoon and the equipment kept breaking down. Finally, he turned out all the lights, lit a few candles, recorded ‘God’ in one take and went home. There wasn’t much else to say.”

One listen reveals one of the most hauntingly unaffected Prince performances on record. The label on my original single still has goose bumps.

In the beginning,

there was God

He made the earth,

and the heaven

He gave us light to rule the day

And another light to rule the night
The Lord, thy God Made,

He made the seas

He made the fruit upon the trees
When He saw

When He saw that it was good

He made a man,

made a man

Only He could, o

nly He could


God made you

God made me too

He made us all

Made us all equally
Now you say

God made you

God made me

He made us all equally


Wake up children

Dance the Dance Electric

There isn't much time Who screamed? Was it you?

Did it matter who ate of the apple 1st?

the end result was negative

what r u looking at!?!

oh yeah?

if I gave it to you what would u do with it?

I know u better than u think i do

there is this purple suspicion

that lurks in my mind

that u and I are a lot alike

in more ways than 6

can u relate?

What's the difference between life and death?

God

yes I believe in u

yes i trust u

yes i'll be good

She wears a long fur coat of mink
Even in the summer time
Everybody knows from the coy little wink
The girl's got a lot on her mind

She's got big thoughts, big dreams
And a big brown Mercedes sedan
What I think this girl
She really wants
Is to be in love with a man

She wants to lead the Glamorous Life
She don't need a man's touch
She wants to lead the Glamorous Life
Without love
It ain't much

She saw him standing in the section marked
If you have to ask you can't afford it lingerie
She threw him bread and said make me scream
In the dark what could he say

Boys with small talk and small minds
Really don't impress me in bed
She said, I need a man's man, baby
Diamonds and furs
Love would only conquer my head

She wants to lead the Glamorous Life
She don't need a man's touch
She wants to lead the Glamorous Life
Without love
It ain't much

They made haste in the brown sedan
They drove to 55 Secret street
They made love and by the seventh wave
She knew she had a problem
She thought real love is real scary
Money only pays the rent
Love is forever
That's all your life
Love is heaven sent
It's glamorous
