Camille=Prince's speeded up voice's alter ego (the voice from If I Was Your Girlfriend).

See sticky thread for tracklist of the Camille album.

Short story:

Camille album, expanded to Crystal Ball, truncated to SOTT.

Seeing as only 1 Camille track lingers in the Vault it's safe to say Prince was pretty darn pleased with the Camille LP tracks.

Rebirth of The Flesh - It's nice, but I do think it is way over-rated, I remember being rather underwhelmed when I first heard it all those years ago.

Maybe that's why he's only ever officially released a live version - live Days Of Wild.

Bob George was never an alter ego... just the name of the song. Based on Bob Cavallo (manager) and George Nelson (music critic) if memory serves me correctly.

i was named after a Camille...my sisters friend in high school....or maybe she's telling me something i dont know LOL

i bet yall can't guess WHO camille was kinda like uhh modeled (i think thats the word) after.

(i feel all smart n stuff!)

You mean Hercule Barbin?

If so, I do believe we only have 1 quote from Prince, from '96/97, over a decade after the Camille project, that he implies (after the name was suggested by the questionaire) he has any refence to Hercule Barbin.

Actually, I think the first time I ever heard the "Camille" voice was on "Erotic City"....even though it was not officially named "Camille" yet.

His profile says he is 20.

And his profile also says- Gender: Not sure. A little hypocritical.
