Can U dig it? Prince music in the movies!

First, I would like to say is that I don't watch movies very much.
I don't go to theaters, blockbuster, suncoast video, etc. For me, HBO is a HB-NO wink

Anyway, some friends came over to visit tonight and thought having a movie party would be perky. They brought "Hook" and "Showgirls" -- to my GREAT SURPRISE, I discover a familiar voice singing -- it's our sweet PRINCE!

The song was Ripopgodazippa!!!!! (in showgirls)
I had no idea he released music for this movie!!!!!

Of all the movies in the world, the one I see has Prince music in it.
What a beautiful divine surprise!

Life is so strange though. I just about died of shock right there on the couch!


Now I wonder what other movies have Prince (music) in them.

Can others add to this small list?

Showgirls
Girl 6
Bright Lights, Big City

of course, Batman

I recall there were a few movies in the 80s that also had tracks with Vanity, i dont recall their names.
Anyone? biggrin





Shall eye continue?
Alright... but u gotta do somethin 4 me first.
Alright - dig up y'all and i'll show u a new trick!
Are u ready? Alright.
Eye want all 40 thousand someodd fools up in here 2 snap your fingers right like this ...
and dont make no noise, just snap 'em ... and listen... listen.
Snap your finger, there u go!
Everybody listen, c'mon!
Do u know what that is?
ORGASM!
"All of me eye give 2 thee down at your feet ...
The reassurance in your rhythm speaks 2 me."

Oh yeah. Hally berry is dancing to it. I like it when Bruce willis tells damon wayans her daughter is weird or something like that as she likes Prince music. Then damon replies "i like Prince" and then does some silly hand movements and silly falsetto voice.....funny stuff.

Pretty Woman -- "Kiss"

I don't like that scene much, but it has got to be one of the most famous use of a Prince song in a movie he did not make.

Some movies are cool if I like the star -- like Tom Cruise, or if it is an uplifting unique tale like What Dreams May Come or Willy Wonka nod

My personality doesn't like surprises, so I don't like sitting for 2 hours watching the story unfold.
(I'd rather read the book version and always i start with the last chapter first.) I watch mostly music programs, romantic tv dramas, news and education type shows. I'm strange! lol

It is fun to learn that prince's magic has graced so many movies that play all over the world! He really has become such a major part of pop culture! It's amazing!!!!!
Thank u everyone for posting!!! hug

I just watched Shawn of the Dead. None of his music was played, but when the two stars were going to start throwing some albums at the undead, the 1st three albums one of them flipped through in the box were Purple Rain, Sign O The Times, and the Batman Soundtrack.

"Let's Go Crazy" is in Band of the Hand, but it ain't Prince performing it.
"I Wanna Be Your Lover" was prominently featured in one episode of "Diff'rent Strokes" (I think Willis was dancing to it in preparation of impressing his date, Charlene, played by Janet Jackson).
