Girl 6 Soundtrack So... I must have been about 14, and absolutely obsessed with Prince, but I had no money, no internet, and I was living in the middle of nowhere in the NorthEast with no access to the Bootleg Wonderland that was Camden Market. Don't think I even had a comprehensive discography, for goodness' sake! Basically I would go straight to the Prince section of any record store I passed and try to find something new. . So I came across this CD by accident - presumably in a branch of Woolworth's - and was absolutely delighted to find all these tracks that I'd not heard before: . She Spoke 2 Me - Loved the fresh, positive sound of it. Pink Cashmere - still one of my favourites. Count The Days - I wasn't sure about this one at first (didn't like Sonny T's voice), but it opened me up to the NPG discography and Exodus for the first time. The Screams Of Passion - Nowhere near my favourite track by The Family, but again - it was the first track I'd heard from this SO BLOODY HARD TO FIND album. Nasty Girl - So much fun in one track. And great for shocking my non-Prince-fan friends Erotic City - I coudnt' afford The Hits/The B Sides and there were never any singles to be found up in Hartlepool, so this was an absolute gem. How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore - when I (much later) found out this song was so old, I was knocked out. Sounded so fresh! When everyone started raving about Alisha Keys' über-bland cover, I was livid! Don't Talk 2 Strangers - Sickly sweet looking back on it now, but back at the time I loved that chord sequence. Made me feel all cozy. Girl 6 - yeah, anyway. . So yeah, did anybody else get an intro to some off-the-beaten-track songs through this?
thank u 4 a funky time |

I already had all the songs except for the title track but it was still nice to have all those songs on one CD in good quality. " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

I had never heard "The Cross" when this came out so I'll never forget that... A fantastic collection of songs.. Just recently hunted down the double vinyl set of this, can't wait to play it 😀 "Still Crazy 4 Coco Rock" | |
