what was the track List of Vanity 6's Unreleased 2nd LP I've heard Vibrator & Sex shooter. We all want a big hit again because
we want to relive the Hysteria & Pandemonium we experienced when Purple Rain was Hot. Actually, he doesn't care if it happens again or not. | |

Vibrator that song is so crazy and outrageous!! It's a shame that we never got a second Vanity 6 album.I think it would have been much better than the first one.They could have taken it to the next level.Vanity had a wild attitude that Apollonia never had. | |

to answer your question,I'm not sure if there is a tracklist for this album.I don't think that the album was ever completed.As far as I know,only three songs are circulating:
Vibrator Sex Shooter Wet Dream Cousin (a tentative title for this track,which is an instrumental)
It's possible that "G-Spot" was also considered for this album.On one of my bootleg tapes,as the song "Vibrator" ends,I can hear the beginning of "G-Spot" but then it cuts off abruptly.

Following the 1999 tour, Prince had started recording songs, including "Promise To Be True," "Vibrator," and "Sex Shooter," for an intended second Vanity 6 album. There were also numerous songs left over from sessions for their first album to choose from, including "I Need A Man," "Jealous Girl," "Moral Majority," "Pizza," and "Too Much." Prince had also recorded "No Call U" (known as "U Call Me" amongst fans) and "Extra Lovable" with Vanity singing lead. However, after participating in acting and singing sessions in preparation for Purple Rain, Vanity suddenly quit and left Prince's camp
so with that info in mind,I'm gonna come up with a tracklist of my own I'm gonna title the album 'Sex Shooter'...
Vanity 6 'Sex Shooter'
Side 1--- Sex Shooter Vibrator G-Spot
Side 2--- Moral Majority Pizza Promise To Be True No Call U

G-Spot is a hard one to place the original PR movie script has G-Spot + Electric Intercourse in the place of the Beautiful Ones performed by the Revolution
But I also thought there were some Jill Jones songs G-Spot & Wednesday/I Don't Know What I Would Do | |

Certainly 17 days , which still contains background vocals from Brenda Bennett : I wonder what her lead vocal would've sounded like on that track : " He's All Black, He's All White, Everybody's Gotta Jam 2Nite, Limouzine ".

That would have been perfect It's a perfect example of the mid-80s Minneapolis Sound.I think that,when Apollonia came onboard,Prince removed some of the funky,racier songs and instead came up with a "poppier" sound for the girls.For example,"Manic Monday" was recorded for the Apollonia 6 album and "Take Me With U" was considered for their album,as well. | |

Vanity would have killed Manic Monday, she would have sauced it up | |

The 1993 Carmen Elektra song "Good Judy Girlfriend" was actually written and recorded in the early 80s for Vanity 6. [Edited 4/23/12 6:27am] | |

Vanity OWNED this song as much as I enjoy the A6 album release the V6 outtake blows it out the water

Apollonia 6.
I think some of you guys are getting stuff mixed up - Glamorous Life, Next Time Wipe The Lipstick, Take Me With U, 17 Days - these are A6 tracks.
Some of the unreleased Vanity 6 song titles you're mentioning pre-date the first album, not for the second projected album. | |

I don't think there really is a distinction between A6 and V6. In either case it was the girl group and without the fallout with Vanity there would never have been an A6. With that it mind many of Sheila's songs as well as others given away were written for a woman to sing. Many songs like 17 days Next Time, even Manic Monday would have fit in the context of Purple Rain. | |

Well, the distinction is (besides the obvious line up change) is the recording dates - Later sessions were for A6, earlier ones for V6. So AFAIK there's no notion of Vanity singing 'Happy Birthday Mr. Christian' like there is 'Sex Shooter'.
A nerdy distinction maybe, but I take my manufactured pop songs about malfunctioning vibrators and lecherous teachers seriously | |

I think that,when Vanity left,the focus changed.Prince knew that Apples couldn't sing the truly "nasty" stuff,so he started giving them clean,lightweight pop tunes like "Manic Monday" and "Take Me With U".If Vanity had stuck around,I bet we would have gotten stuff like "Vibrator" and probably another song that makes a reference to penis size There was no way that Apollonia could pull that off. | |

Right
Vanity was definately the focal point and muse for the project, so when she left the image softened and Prince's interest waned. That being said, the A6 album contains several of my favourite Prince tracks. The A6 album is less harsh sounding (less funky I guess too - V6 Sex Shooter is definately hotter), but is closer to the Revolution sound of the era. | |

Actually the A6 version of Sex Shooter feels like 'the Time' also has that mellow grow of Possessed
Blue Limousine is hard, comes out banging love the energey
I could see V6 doing
Blue Limousine, Vibrator, Manic Monday, 17 Days, No Call U,
Take Me With U duet with Prince A Million Miles Sex Shooter Sugar Walls Vibrator
that would have been a hotxxx album, | |

I made a thread about this a year or two back, and we came up with some really interesting ones. The final track list was something like:
The Glamorous Life (this one was written for vanity, and the lyrics make sense for the PR movie) Take me With U 17 Days Ooo She She Waa Wa Vibrator GSpot
Manic Monday Sex Shooter No Call U Noon Rendezvous (that's why it has the backwards beat from the PR scene) Happy Birthday Mr. Christian Some Kind of Lover
Obviously lots of Sheila E's album was originally inteneded for Vanity to sing, along with Manic Monday and 17days. It's up for debate but some people think that "Next time Wipe the Lipstick off your collar may have been intended for vanity to as well.
I still think that this album, with the purple rain movie/tour/marketing machine behind it would have been a GIGANTIC hit.
Vanity's version of Sex Shooter (although in ass quality) is still thought by most fans to be better then apollonias. That with the pre-packaged hit 'Manic Monday' would have been Vanity's first single that could have been played on both Adult and teen radio, as it lacked the dirtier edge and inapropreiate content of 'Nasty Girls.' 17 Days would have killed with Brenda and been a sleeper at parties and Dance Halls. With the band still together I think that Prince would have put a little more work into Ooo she she waa wa, a great song that's only crime is that it's actually 90 seconds long. A 4 min version of OSSWW (and possibly a different title) could have made that track the highlight of the whole album. Then Finally toast all that off with 'The Glamourous Life' and you have a hit album in anyones book.
So sad that Vanity couldn't have kept her addiction in check/stayed in the Prince camp a bit longer. If this album would have gotten out I think she could have taken a lot of the steam that Madonna ended up getting. In my mind a lot of the things Madonna did initially were things that Vanity did better. After the Purple Rain tour vanity could have re-negotiated her Prince contract/Struck out on her own.

^^ I agree! I really wish that Vanity had stayed around for Purple Rain and a second Vanity 6 album.Like you said,that album would have been GIGANTIC! Her own solo albums pale in comparison to the stuff that Prince was writing for her. | |

Man I wish we could have heard a 2nd Vanity 6 album with these tracks! I'm sure they would have had some major hits. I'm still hoping 1 of these days more tracks from the V6 sessions are leaked online ...
Anyway, I really just think it was a combo of things as to why Vanity left...Her addiction was 1, but Prince's behavior was certainly a big factor-he was a womanizer, controlling and he wanted to be the biggest star. Vanity didn't want to put up with any of that-she showed him she could be a "manizer" , that he couldn't control her, and that she had her own career aspirations. As much as we hear about Vanity loving Prince, I'm sure there's no doubt she also used him to jumpstart her own career. The mix of personal and business led to Vanity and Prince falling out IMO. | |
