Okay, she's not a protogee but Celine Dion.

I can't even remember what the song's called.

It's the line, "That night in the restaurant". In her tortured English, she delivers it as "Vanneddin da reff-torrent"

Oh god! Hahah you know ever since I first heard it in "Blue Limousine" the line where I think Brenda says "He like them pretty, he like their titties.." Uggh for some reason that part makes me cringe!!!! Sexuality doesn't really embarrass me or anything but just something about the word "titties" doesn't sound sexy to me.


I thought it was "he like BIG titties", which is even worse lol


Is THAT what that songs says???? Do you know I have that in my mac music library and was singing that last week, and STILL didn'T know what the hell she was talking about!eek


Damn.You know, sometimes they really be reaeeachin' in the lyrics department lol

that's close. but much as i love Sheila, she's no torch singer, and bedtime story hits some notes that just ain't right.


Bedtime story is indeed just...well..just...NOT.

Paula Abdul...

"I'm in a funky way... Blow, horny horns."

Does anyone remember her performance on the AMAs, wearing some kind of garter belt, crazy-looking get-up?

Yeesh.



It was the VMA's..Her doing her "thigh-ology"...oopsies...i mean, "vibeology"..which isnt a prince song.


Whoops. I stand corrected.

That's the best part of the song!!! It's even better on the Romance 1600 Live version. It's just her vesrion of Morris Day/Jamie Starr etc.

My vote probably goes to Apples.....in the long version of Sex Shooter, when she's trying to get all funky but is so NOT, and she says (with very proper enunciation):

"Ev-ree-bo-dee saaang it"


"I can't hear you!"

"All the nass-teee people say it"

It's so NOT nasty!

I have to say "nothing compares to" St. Paul Peterson trying gamely to keep up with Prince's backing track. Mind you, I love The Family. But . . .

Then there's "The Stick" on which they don't even really bother to overdub Morris Day on top of Lisa and Prince.

And, a world of dittos to "Take Me With U." Deep and abiding aural pain.

The funny (or not funny) part is that it probably wasn't ad-libbing.... P probably said it on the record (imagine Morris saying it) and she tried to copy it smile

This isn't really a lyric but on the Purple Rain album the duet "Take Me With You" and the part where Apollonia goes "oooo hooo oooo" was like nails scratching across a chalkboard for me. If you can't sang, you don't do the ooooo's and aaaah's it's just the straw that breaks the camel's back.

I know what you mean. She does the same thing on "Sex Shooter" I can't stand it!

I can't stand that part!! It's like she listened to some James Brown records. It's a very bad imitation. You can tell she doesn't really talk like that!

"Happy Mr Mister Christian"
"Mia Bocca"
The rap in "My Name Is Prince"


"Ooh She Wah Wah" was cool.

Now let's see some hands: Other than "Ooh She Wah Wah" how come we never heard Susan sing background on those records?

Susan didn't sing. She was smart enough to know she couldn't, so she didn't try.

it was just her version of the Morris Day or Jaime Starr persona like prince does on Cloreen Baconskin or If A Girl answers.

the problem with Carmen's rapping, is that she used Tony M as a guide. that was her first mistake.
