hahaha- recently listened to this one! fabolous- the cameo-part Prince does (with that same Morriy Day-like voice he used on "Tricky").
what´s your thoughts to this jam? why didn´t Prince release it on the V6 album?

DAAAAAMN!!!!! I've never heard THIS ONE!!!!!

This song is OUTRAGEOUS! The first time I heard it,I was laughing like crazy.What a shame that it was never released.The world really needed to hear this!

It must be my imagination
Cause I know I didn't hear you laugh
You'd be surprised what I do when you're through
takin' your macho bath

you know, I think it would have matched perfectly to the other songs on the album. I mean it´s short enough, why didn´t he put "Vibrator" on it?
maybe he was afraid people would skip the whole album through, just to hear that one! haha

for all who haven´t heard it, now you can:

"Vibrator" was actually recorded in the spring of 1983,for inclusion on the second Vanity 6 album.But when Vanity left the group,this song was left in the vaults.Somehow,I don't think it would have worked on the Apollonia 6 album

DavidEye said:

think so too- Apollonia couldn´t moan this way, like Vanity did.
still laughin bout this part:
Prince:"body massager...please!"

To tell the truth I had never heard any Vanity befor but this song was a great way to get introduced to her. laughed my butt off when the Prince thing came on!!!

urbanfox3105 said:

thanks. i never heard it before. Wow Vanity's speaking voice is identical to Prince. not identical but .. you know what i'm saying.

i LOVE this song, i always great for a good laught. princes cameo keeps me in stitches and vanitys moans of pleasure are sooo convincing

Moonwalkbjrain said:

....indeed!


What was really going on during that recording session?

This song is crazy! I love it!!

Kissmequick said:

either p was doin his thang or vanity was enjoying her "body massager"

Moonwalkbjrain said:

...or Vanity is a good actress.

This is such an entertaining song. It's almost better than 'If A Girl Answers'.

Krystal666 said:

maybe both- haha!

lovesexyq said:

I agree

urbanfox3105 said:

lol right

urbanfox3105 said:

I wonder if Prince knows that song is on their page. I noticed he isn't one of their 'friends'.

well, I´m friends with the "official" Vanity 6 myspace-account. Apollonia 6 didn´t answer my friends request. ain´t nothing worse than rejection!....

There's the story that Prince intended to name the group V****a .
Anyone info on this ?

as in Vagina? I had heard that before.

100MPH said:

yea he originally wanted to name them vagina and the hookers, denise wasnt goin 4 that and then he was like we can pronounce it vageena (lol), denise and the powers that be wasnt goin 4 that so he changed it to vanity

personally i prefer vagina (or vageena) and the hookers but watev

"He wanted me to call myself Vagina",Vanity says,laughing."I told him "Vagina" would be more appropriate for a hooker".

BODY massager! Please!

lovesexyq said:

I don't think I ever laughed so hard listening to as song as I did the very first time I heard "Ye-s but he's takin' a shower!". I seriously thought it was meant to be a guy answering the phone, which seemed like a great twist!, then I realized it was supposed to be P's 'girl voice' and that made it even funnier.

that instrumental bass jam "climax" from these same sessions is funky as hell.I have the bass -pnly version somewhere.Hellzapoppin' was plucking the hell outta those strings!!Such a percussive player.
