"Some kind of lover" from Apollonia6 album

On that song it says Lisa is the lead vocal but it sounds a lot like Brend's voice. I've been trying to figure this out for the longest.

You know,I'm confused about who is singing lead vocals on this song too! The credits say Brenda but I read somewhere (Uptown perhaps?) that it is really Lisa.The whole album is filled with uncredited "guest vocalists",presumably to pump up the limited vocals of Apollonia 6...


Jill Jones adds guest vocals to "Ooh She She Wa Wa"

Prince himself can be heard on "Happy Birthday Mr.Christian" and "A Million Miles (I Love You)",where he can also be heard chanting "somebody...somebody clap yo' hands".

My Vinyl has a small poster of the tree (same size as the cover) and on its back side you can find the song lyrics and ANY Credits: Jill Jones ist mentioned for "Oo She She Wa Wa" and even Susannah for "Happy Birthday...". "A Million Miles is definitely NOT sung by Lisa (and in my opinion you can even hear it clearly that Brenda leads it) but Lisa wrote the song, that's at least what the credits say. nod

On "Happy birthday Mr. Christian" it's supposed to be BrownMark, I always thought that was Prince.

See, I don't get that, Why would Lisa be the lead vocal? She wasn't even in Apollonia6 and it sounds a lot like Brenda.I can hear Lisa's voice in the background, though.

You are totally right. Listening to it, to me it doesn't sound like Lisa on lead-vox neither, instead it's surely Brenda - but the credit says Lisa. Maybe it's only a stamp-error?

It's obvious that Prince had very little confidence in Apollonia 6's own singing abilities,which is why he had all those "guest vocalists" to pump up their weak vocals.However,Brenda sounds GREAT on the song "Blue Limousine".Her vocals are strong and forceful on this tune,which should have been a huge hit.

I think Brenda does a great background vocal job on Sheila E.'s "Next Time Wipe the Lipstick off your Collar".

Prince is some kind of Horn Dog writing Lyrics like that. How can a Man who was soo Sexual Change soo Drasticly? It's absolutely Criminal to say the Least.

Don't know why,but that part is too funny! smile

No,what do you Mean Love Bizarre? She always Dressed Kinda Weird. I always liked Vanity Better. So Prince never Dug Her was into her Style which was sooo Different to his? She looked Great at the Purple rain Premiere but after that she was Too Big for Prince and just not His Style at All! Gosh!

It's funny hearing Prince's proteges try to fake an orgasm on record.Remember the lame ending of The Family's "Screams Of Passion" where Paul Peterson does that silly "uh-uh,uh-uh,uh,uh" moaning thing? It sounds more like he has the hiccups!

Oh, I hate it when they do that, it's kind of funny, but still. Espicially in "automatic" When jill and Lisa are "faking it" I usally tend to turn that part down.
