Don't need no credit cards to ride this train
It's leaving all day
A wonderful trip through our time..."

no way. he was owwah-ing his pert little religious butt off at the shows i saw last summer.

i think there should be an "OWWA" ringtone. or at least some kind of alert for your computer u can download.

It's like Marco-Polo for Prince fans. If you need to find someone, you just yell out OWWA and wait for the response.

Yes! I'm going to try this next time I'm at the post office here in Bangkok.

Last time I went with my brother in law he did a child-like 'yaaaaay!' and people wept and shook from not knowing how to respond to such an out of place exclamation in a public place.

'Owwwwwahhh!'

He's still doing it when he performs "D.M.S.R." at the beginning, so he still very much does it. Though, it seems he only does it because it's sort of his trademark and people somewhat expect to hear it than because he really feels it or the music moves him to.

@ this damn thread.

On the 'Club Black' boot, Prince plays DMSR and during the intro prince turns the mic onto the audience and they all scream "OOOOOHHHHWWWWHAAAAA". It sounds great. The whole performance is great.

the dove cry rules.. the best ones have to be live, but like someone pointed out above.. the glam slam one is perfect

yep sure did. it's the only thing from the past that he still actually does. You all better appreciate it while he still does it, soon he'll put in the box of "Jehovah Past" along with the splits, the 45mph spins, the crawling on the floor, the performance of "head" and "darling nikki", the jesus hair, the kicking of the mic stand, the microphone stand fondlings, the humping, and the cursing.

I love saying "OWWWAAHHH" though, its my fan call....

U know, there are some ringtone sites where u can rip a song from a cd and make it a ringtone... Does anyone have an idea as to which version of OooWah would be best to rip? I'm gonna figure this out somehow cuz I totally want my phone to do that!

I'm just happy people are agreeing on how to spell it!!!!!

It'll go down as Prince's version of "Doh!" LOL.

I just tried making one of his Aooowaahh's my incoming message alert on iChat. Got tired of it after a couple minutes and switched it back.

"OWWWWA!"

Virtually anything that you can do anywhere else,darling!!!

The "Owwwwwahhh!" on "Little Red Corvette" is my favorite. The one on "Darling Nikki" (more like a "Yaaaww!" ) is cool shit right there!

the 'owwah!'s at the beginning of 'sexuality' are the ultimate 'owwah' action in my opinion. it's like a five course meal of 'owwah'.

Anxiety said:

Especially how he shouts the 'owwah' with a little bit of 'uhh' after it.
